CAUTION – IMPORTANT
If not properly installed, operated and maintained,
the use of all mechanical equipment presents the
possibility of personal injury or property damage.
Before hoist use, all persons who will install,
operate or maintain should read this manual thor-
oughly. For safe, dependable and economical
performance, follow all instructions and recom-
mendations contained herein. It is also important
to retain this manual for current and future use.
19. NOT leave load supported by the hoist unattended unless specific
precautions have been taken.
20. NOT allow the load chain or hook to be used as an electrical or weld-
ing ground.
21. NOT allow the load chain or hook to be touched by a live welding
electrode.
22. NOT remove or obscure the warnings on the hoist.
23. NOT operate a hoist which has Not been securely attached to a suit-
able support.
24. NOT operate a hoist unless load slings or other approved single
attachments are properly sized and seated in the hook saddle.
25. NOT lift loads that are Not balanced and that the holding action is
Not secure, taking up slack carefully.
26. NOT operate a hoist unless all persons are and remain clear of the
supported load.
27. Report malfunctions or unusual performances of a hoist, after it has
been shut down until repaired.
28. NOT operate a hoist on which the safety placards or decals are miss-
ing or illegible.
29. Be familiar with operating controls, procedures, and warnings.
WARNING CAUTION
Improper operation of a hoist can create a potentially hazardous situ-
ation which, if not avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury.
To avoid such a potentially hazardous situation, the operator shall:
1. Maintain a firm footing or be otherwise secured when operating the
hoist.
2. Check brake function by tensioning the hoist prior to each lift or
pulling operation.
3. Use hook latches. Latches are to retain slings, chains, etc. under
slack conditions only.
4. Make sure the hook latches are closed and not supporting any
parts of the load.
5. Make sure the load is free to move and will clear all obstructions.
6. Avoid swinging the load or hook.
7. Avoid lever "flyback" by keeping a firm grip on the lever until oper-
ating stroke is completed and the lever is at rest.
8. Inspect the hoist regularly, replace damaged or worn parts, and
keep appropriate records of maintenance.
9. Use the hoist manufacturer's recommended parts when repairing
the unit.
10. Lubricate load chain per hoist manufacturer's recommendations.
11. NOT use the hoist load limiting or warning device to measure load.
12. NOT operate except with manual power.
13. NOT permit more that one operator to pull on lever at the same
time. More than one operator is likely to cause hoist overload.
14. NOT allow your attention to be diverted from operating the hoist.
15. NOT allow the hoist to be subjected to sharp contact with other
hoists, structures, or objects through misuse.
16. NOT adjust or repair the hoist unless qualified to perform such
adjustments or repairs.
