1 Safety instructions 1.1 Symbols Safety notices In these instructions, the safety notices are classified according to the severity of the danger and the probability of its occurrence. The procedures described for avoiding danger must be followed without fail. This symbol gives warning of an imminent danger to health and life. Ignoring these warning notices will lead to severe injuries, possibly resulting in death.
1 Safety instructions 1.2 Operating instructions Read carefully and follow the operating instructions 1.3 Use for intended purpose • Chain hoists are intended for lifting freely movable and guided loads that cannot tilt. Depending on their design, they are for stationary or mobile use. If loads are to be towed horizontally, or in the case of guided loads, automatic operation, continuous deadweight or constantly repeated hoisting motions, the individual application must be assessed.
1 Safety instructions 1.5 Safety-conscious operation The ST chain hoists are constructed according to the state of the art and equipped with a slipping clutch as overload protection. In spite of this, dangers may arise from incorrect use or use for an unintended purpose. •...
