Never walk under suspended loads.
To guard against injury, wear personal
protective equipment such as gloves, safety
glasses, and safety shoes.
Be sure to use lifting devices with the
appropriate weight rating. The lifting bar must
be able to handle the weight of the load.
The load's center of gravity can be in an
unexpected location. Failure to locate the center
of gravity and correctly position the load before
lifting can cause unexpected shifting during
lifting and transport.
The angle from the top of the drive module to
the lifting cables has an impact on the
maximum load force on the cable. This angle
must be 65° or greater. Refer to Illustration 12.1.
Attach and dimension the lifting cables
properly.
