DANGER
Danger from faulty installation
A faulty installation may result in serious acci-
dents.
I
Your product
PROFI 6 TI
may only be installed
by qualified personnel.
WARNING
Danger from chain fracture
Vibrations damage the chain and can lead to
chain breakage.
I
The supporting structure must form a rigid
support.
I
Furthermore, no external vibrations may be
transferred to your product (e.g. from the attached
load).
WARNING
Danger from inadequately sized sup-
porting structure
When loads are taken up suddenly on slack chain,
especially at high lifting speeds, impact forces
result that can be several times the load weight.
I
The attachment points and supporting struc-
ture for your product
PROFI 6 TI
must be able
to securely absorb the forces (
,
→
table 1) to be
expected.
I
Ensure that your product can be freely aligned
under load, as otherwise impermissible additional
loads may occur.
