Instruction for use (GB)
(Original instructions)
Read through these user instructions before using the lever hoist. Improper operation may lead to hazardous situations.
General safety provisions
•
Check the function of the lever hoist before use. See “Daily checks” on page 3.
•
Do not exceed the maximum load.
•
Full function of the brake system can only be secured at a minimum load of 30 kg for capacities (WLL) up to 1 ton, and for capacities (WLL)
above 1 ton, the minimum load to be greater than 3% of the rated capacity (WLL).
•
Handle the lever hoist with care. Do not throw the hoist about or let it fall to the ground.
•
Do not use the lever hoist for welding work where it is exposed to welding spatter or current.
•
The lever hoist block must not be used for lifting persons.

Function
(See Fig. 2)
Make sure the chain is unloaded and set the selector to neutral position (N). Pull the chain through by hand to the desired position.
Pulling through the unloaded chain
(see Fig. 2)
Make sure the chain is unloaded and set the selector to neutral position (N). Pull the chain through by hand to the desired position.
Warning!
If the selector is in position UP or DOWN when the chain is pulled, the lever may rotate like a propeller, which could be
dangerous.
Warning!
If the lever hoist is used on a load which is too light, the brake function will not engage. The load must be at least 3% of
maximum load. For example a minimum load of 30 kg is necessary to engage the brake on a 1 tonne hoist. For lightloads choose a
smaller
lever
hoist.
If it proves impossible to pull the chain through despite the selector being in neutral, it may be necessary to release the brake first, by turning the
brake wheel anti-clockwise. If this does not help, set the selector to position DOWN, load the chain slightly and jerk the lever in clockwise direc-
tion. Then try again without load but with the selector in neutral.
Suspension of lever hoist
Make sure the hoist in suspended from an eye,
shackle or similar with sufficient bearing
capacity. With the chain tightened, both hooks
must be in line (Fig. 3a).
NB!
Neither hoist, hooks nor chain
may be subjected to bending stresses
(Figs. 3b and c and Fig. 4).
