Operation
DANGER!
Danger of life by crashing the loadt!
Falling loads can cause serious injury or death.
- Never stand, linger or work below a suspended
load.
- Unsuitable suspension points can fail and the load
may drop. The chain hoist load hook should only
be secured to suitable suspension points on the
load.
- Loads may only be moved under supervision.
- Under no circumstances may a load be subjected to
a heavy blow or collision.
- A load must not be lifted by the chain hoist if it is
slipping, falling or if its component parts are not se-
cured firmly together.
- A rusted or damaged chain hoist must never be
used.
- A load lifted by the chain hoist should not be left un-
attended.
- Care should be taken during lifting that the opera-
tor does not stand within the working range of the
load.
- When leaving the workplace, lower the load.
DANGER!
Overloading is life-threatening!
Carriers not intended for use with the chain hoist and
its load-bearing capacity can give way.
- The chain hoist should always be suspended from
suitable equipment which has sufficient load-bear-
ing capacity to withstand the weight of the load and
the chain hoist.
If the load-bearing capacity is exceeded, the chain
hoist may fail and the load may fall.
- Only loads which do not exceed the load-bearing
capacity may be suspended.
CAUTION!
Risk of crushing!
Injuries to hands and fingers may result from impro
-
per use of the electric chain hoist.
- - Never grasp the chain while the equipment is in
operation.
ATTENTION!
- Do not carry people on the chain hoist
- Do not transport loads over the heads of personnel
- Do not move loads which exceed the maximum
load-bearing capacity of the chain hoist (see type
plate).
- The chain hoist must not be used for moving jam
-
med or wedged loads..
- Loads may not be pulled obliquely.
- Avoid over-use of jog control (repeated short im-pul
-
ses to the motor).
- Do not change the direction of movement suddenly.
- In order to prevent accidents and to minimise strain
on the chain hoist, never leave a heavy load sus-
pended for a lengthy period of time.
- Do not allow any load to be pressed against the
hook latch. The latch is designed to help hold the
hook in place while the chain is slack before the
sleep chain is picked up.
Use head protection!
Use protective gloves!
Use protective boots!
Wear protective clothes!
NOTE!
- Operating personnel must be familiar with the oper-
ation and functions of the chain hoist and the safety
regulations pertaining to it.
- The operator is responsible for ensuring that all op-
erating personnel have had the necessary training.
