PORTA BASE
Notes for Correct Operation
Read in conjunction with the instructions for
use of your chosen REID Lifting Davit
We recommend the use of load-sensing or
overload protection devices on all lifts
The risk assessment and method statement
must consider any factors that might apply
additional loading to the system during lifting
operations
Suitable, appropriately rated winches, hoists
and bracket plates must be used for all
applications
Take care when transporting and storing the
system to avoid damage
Assemble only as instructed (ensure all bolts
and pins are present and fitted correctly as
per instructions)
Always wear appropriate PPE when installing,
setting up, dismantling and using this equipment
Attach hoists to the dedicated lifting points
only, making sure it is attached in a way that
does not expose the user to danger by the
hoist, chain or load
Do not allow loads to swing
To avoid side pull, lowering and lifting should
only be carried out when the load chain forms
a straight and vertical line between the load
and lifting attachment point.
Only use this product when all leveling feet
have been deployed and leveled
Ensure the hub is leveled before inserting
the Davit
The base castors are for positioning only and
not to be loaded during operation*
Always make sure the basket is engaged and
secured to the tail of the base before any lift*
Always make sure the correct amount
of weight for the application is in the
Counterbalance basket before any lift*
* Only applicable to the counterbalance system
Warning
The equipment should not be used outside of its
limitations, or for any purpose other than that for
which it is intended
Do not lift or transport loads while personnel are
in the danger zone
Do not allow personnel to pass under a
suspended load
Never leave a suspended load unattended
Be aware of hazards when setting up/folding
down, such as trapping fingers in rotating parts
Be aware of any adverse weather conditions
such as strong or gusty winds which could
impose additional horizontal loads and affect the
stability of the structure. Stop using if weather is
impacting on lifting, and either disassemble the
system or tie it to a rigid structure to ensure it
can’t overturn
Don’t allow the load to hit the system
Under no circumstances should the product be
moved under load
Do not lift a load outside the permissible
operating radius (Refer to figure A & B)
Under no circumstances remove any weights
from the basket during a lift*
* Only applicable to the counterbalance system.
Allowable Rotation
H Base:
The operating radius for the H Base is within
the inside of the legs of the base 90°, for the lifting
of goods, personnel and fall arrest. When loaded
the Davit is not to be rotated outside of the area
indicated in the image below. The image and table
below indicates the operating radius for the H Base.
Counterbalance: The allowable operating area
for the Counterbalance base is dependent on the
application in which it is being used. For goods
and personnel lifting the allowable area of rotation
is 270°
For fall arrest applications the allowable working
area is 45° each side from the centre of the base.
Depending on application the Davit is not to be
rotated outside of the areas indicated in the image
below. The image and table below indicates the
operating radius for the Counterbalance.
