According to DIN EN 14492-2, the force limitation factor is ϕDAL = 1,6 for chain hoists with a
rated capacity that is greater than or equal to 1000 kg. The supporting structure must be
designed to accommodate the static and dynamic forces that occur when the overload
protection device is tripped.
According to DIN EN 14492-2, chain hoists with a rated capacity that is greater than or equal to
1000 kg must be equipped with overload protection. This chain hoist is delivered with a slipping
clutch that acts directly as an overload protection.
The slipping clutch must be adjusted according to the rated capacity of the chain hoist. For
more information, see chapter Adjusting the slipping clutch.

MACHINE MALFUNCTION HAZARD
If the suspension bracket is installed incorrectly, the chain hoist hangs at an angle.
Suspending the chain hoist at an angle results in premature wear of the chain drive.

of the chain hoist.
If special fittings are installed on the chain hoist, make sure that they are counter-
balanced.
1. Remove the retaining clip and pin on one side of the suspension bracket.
2. Attach the suspension bracket to the supporting structure or to the trolley (if equipped).
3. Insert the pin through the suspension and the suspension bracket. Secure the fixation with
the retaining clip.
