2 DEVICE PURPOSE
The polyamide rope with the hook (hereinafter referred to as the “rope”) is determined
for manual lifting and lowering of free loads by means of the bricklayer’s pulley of the
Z500 type or other applicable pulley under normal climatic conditions in the workplace.
Consult any other application with the manufacturer prior to use.
The load weight must not exceed the given permitted carrying capacity of the rope and
pulley used as well.
3 SAFETY PRINCIPLES
3.1 SAFETY SUMMARY
A danger exists when lifting loads, particularly when the rope is not used properly or is
poorly maintained. Since an accident or serious injury could result, special safety
precautions must be observed in the course of work with the rope and its checking.
Safety principles for the bricklayer’s pulley are defined in the separate "Operation
Manual" supplied with any pulley.
! WARNING
NEVER
load rope more than carrying capacity shown on the rope label.
ALWAYS
work with rope only by man power.
ALWAYS
read operation manual and safety instructions.
Keep in mind that the operating staff is responsible for proper binding technique,
lifting and lowering loads.
