Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. Tiger lever hoists are third party verified by SGS Certificate Number MDC 1302. The Tiger SS11 range of Subsea Lever Hoists are fit for use in a Subsea environment. The SS11 meets and exceeds all the requirements of IMCA DO28 Rev. 1 “Guidance notes for offshore lever hoists”.
Alternatively, refer to the section on Cross Hauling/Fleeting/Drifting (Chapter 4) Operation The unique dual brake mechanism featured in the Tiger SS11 and PROLH Lever Hoist enables free movement of the load chain whilst preventing light load slip and accidental load release.

IMCA guidance note D 028 Rev. 1 “The Use of Chain Lever Hoists in the Offshore Environment” requires measures to avoid single point failures in static or multiple rigging points. The Tiger SS11 Lever Hoist is fitted with a travelling chain end stop to specifically address points in section 7.2 of these guidance notes.
Continual overloading of the unit must be avoided as the efficiency of the clutch may be impaired. The overload clutch is factory set and should only be adjusted or repaired by a Tiger authorised repairer. If there is any doubt as to the unit’s ability to lift a load then don’t.

The adjustable travelling end stop must always be fitted to the idle end of the chain. Using other than Tiger supplied or approved load chain may cause the chain to jam in the lever hoist and/or allow the chain to break and the load to drop. Due to the size requirements and physical properties, use only Tiger approved load chain in Tiger lever hoists.
