SSEMBLY
Inspection of the attachment point
The attachment point for the hoist must be selected so that the supporting structure to which it
is to be fitted has sufficient stability and to ensure that the expected forces can be safely
absorbed.
The unit must align freely also under load in order to avoid impermissible additional loading.
The selection and calculation of the appropriate supporting structure are the responsibility of
the operating company.
Shorten or extend the hand chain
Adjust the length of the hand chain so that the distance of the lower end to the floor is between
500 – 1000 mm.
NOTE: For safety reasons, hand chain links may only be used once.
• Look for the non-welded link of the hand chain, bend to open and discard it.
• Shorten or extend the chain to the required length.
ATTENTION: Always remove or add an even number of chain links.
• Use a new link to close the loose chain ends by bending it (for extending the hand chain, two
new chain links are required).
ATTENTION: Make sure that hand chains are not twisted while they are fitted.

PERATION
Prior to initial operation, before it is put into operation again and after substantial changes, the
product including the supporting structure must be inspected by a competent person*. The
inspection mainly consists of a visual inspection and a function check. These inspections are
intended to establish that the hoist is in a safe condition, has been set up appropriately and is
ready for operation and that any defects or damage are detected and eliminated, as required.
*Competent persons may be, for example, the maintenance engineers of the manufacturer or
the supplier. However, the company may also assign performance of the inspection to its own
appropriately trained specialist personnel.
Before putting the unit into operation, check functioning of the chain drive in unloaded
condition.

TARTING

ORK
Before starting work, inspect the unit including the suspension, equipment and supporting
structure for visual defects, e. g. deformations, superficial cracks, wear and corrosion marks.
In addition also test the brake and check that the hoist and the load are correctly attached.
Checking the brake function
Before starting work, always check operation of the brake:
To do this, lift, pull or tension and lower or release a load over a short distance with the unit.
When the hand chain is released, the load must be held in any position.
This check is intended to ensure that even at temperatures below 0°C, the brake disks are not
frozen. Repeat it at least twice, before starting further work.
ATTENTION: If the brake does not function properly, the unit must be immediately
taken out of service and the manufacturer must be contacted!
