"WARNINGS"
WARNING:
Installing or operating this hoist without first understanding the proper installation and
operation procedures can lead to serious injury or death. Always read and understand
fully all installation and operation manuals before installing or operating this
equipment.
WARNING:
Welding, oxy-fuel cutting, or grinding sparks can cause fuel to ignite that in turn can
lead to injury or death.
Always
take adequate steps to avoid ignition of fuel from fuel
tanks when welding, grinding, or oxy-fuel cutting during equipment installation.
WARNING:
Heat from the truck's exhaust system can cause hydraulic component failure and may
lead to a fire that could cause injury or death.
Always
install equipment in locations
where heat from the exhaust system will not damage any hydraulic component.
WARNING:
Being under a raised body can result in serious injury or death should the body
unexpectedly descend.
Never
position yourself or allow others to position themselves
under a
loaded
body.
Always
prop the
unloaded
body up using the body prop or body
props supplied.
Remember
body props are to be used only on an
unloaded
body.
When two props are provided, both props must be used.
WARNING:
Malfunctioning equipment can cause property damage, injury or death.
Always
have
faulty equipment repaired before continuing its use. Consult the manufacturer if
required.
WARNING:
Overloading of a body can cause vehicle or body component damage or an accident
which may cause injury or death.
Never
exceed the gross vehicle weight (GVW) or the
gross axle weight (GAW) rating of your vehicle.
WARNING:
The inadvertent shorting of the vehicle's electrical supply can cause a fire or equipment
damage that could lead to injury or death.
Always
disconnect the vehicle battery prior
to installing, servicing, or repairing the power unit.
WARNING:
Damage to brake lines during equipment installation, or installing bolts or equipment in
such a way that the line will rub and become damaged can lead to brake failure which
can cause an accident and can lead to severe injury or death.
Always
take adequate
steps to prevent brake line damage during installation and isolate brake lines from
installed equipment.
WARNING:
Connecting the hoist to a hydraulic system with more pressure (psi) or flow (gpm) than
is recommended by the hoist manufacturer can cause the hoist to fail during the
dumping of a load. This could lead to damage, serious injury, or death.
Be sure
you
have the correct pressure and flow.
