Attach the sling to the spreader bar
Ergolet excludes any liability if the sling is not correctly attached to the hook on the
spreader bar.
It is always the responsibility of the helper to ensure that the correct sling is used
and that it is suitable for the need/purpose.
1)
Attach the sling strap to the open hook.
Note:
On some models, there are straps of different colours. It
is important here that the same colour is used on the hooks on
each side in order to avoid an uneven lift.
2)
Pulling the strap down causes the lock to close with a
”click”.
Note:
The lifting hook is designed in such a way that the user's
weight automatically keeps the hook locked.
To unhook the strap, pulling the strap up causes the hook to open.
Care should be taken to avoid the user’s fingers becoming caught in the hook.
