SAFETY
q Do not use the work equipment or swing to pull the load in
any direction.
There is a danger that the lifting eye may be damaged due
to abnormal loading making it unsafe to lift.
q The operator or person attaching the sling should inspect
the bucket link lifting device and all components in the load
line (e.g. chains, shackles etc.) visually for damage or
deformation before use to ensure that they are not
damaged or worn.
Any damaged, deformed or worn parts should not be used
and must be replaced.
q Where possible the lifting operation should be carried out
with the bucket curled in order to increase visibility and
prevent any obstruction or deflection of the sling or chain
away from its vertical position.
q If the load is to be lifted at a height where this is not
possible, the sling or chain must only be guided by the
back wall of the bucket and not any other part of the
machine.
