PRE-START CHECKLIST
Regular inspection of your Lever Block will have a twofold result by ensuring the unit is
suitable for safe operation and will assist with extending the operating life of the unit. The
following inspection should be performed both prior to, and after, every use:
•
Ensure the Lever Block is correctly suspended from a suitable support which keeps the
load chain off the ground whilst in storage
•
Ensure the selected Lever Block is the correct capacity to perform the task required
•
Handle your Lever Block with care and do not throw, drop or drag it along the ground
•
Familiarise yourself with how the unit operates and understand its safety features
•
Inspect the unit for any missing parts before and after every use
•
Ensure the safety latches are working correctly and are aligned properly in the hook
•
Check for free movement of the load chain by operating the lever handle
•
Check the load hooks for ease of rotation
•
Inspect the load chain before and after each use
•
Check that the hand-wheel assembly rotates freely without jamming
