PERATION
Prior to initial operation, before it is put into operation again and after substantial changes, the
product including the supporting structure must be inspected by a competent person*. The
inspection mainly consists of a visual inspection and a function check. These inspections are
intended to establish that the load lifting attachment is in a safe condition, has been set up
appropriately and is ready for operation and that any defects or damage are detected and
eliminated, as required.
*Competent persons may be, for example, the maintenance engineers of the manufacturer or
the supplier. However, the company may also assign performance of the inspection to its own
appropriately trained specialist personnel.

TARTING

ORK
Before starting work, inspect the unit including the suspension, equipment and supporting
structure for visual defects, e. g. deformations, damage, cracks, wear and corrosion marks.
In addition also check that hoist and/or load are correctly attached.
It must be possible to turn the (unsecured) threaded spindle easily into both directions over the
entire length of the adjusting range.
Inspection of the supporting structure
The supporting structure has to be selected to ensure that it has sufficient stability and the
expected forces can be safely absorbed.
Make sure that no impermissible additional loading may occur as a result of fitting the hoist
(e.g. by side pull).
The selection and calculation of the appropriate supporting structure are the responsibility of
the operating company.
Inspection of the supporting pin
The supporting pin must be checked for cracks, deformations, damage, wear and corrosion
marks. In particular, check the material thickness on the thinnest point. The supporting pin
must be replaced, as soon as the load carrying cross section has been reduced by 5% as a
result of wear or damage.
Inspection of assembly on the beam
Check the threaded spindle for perfect fit. Re-tighten the securing pin, as required.

PERATION
Installation, service, operation
