NEVER use a hoist without a hoist name plate. NEVER use modified or deformed hooks. NEVER use non-authentic KITO chains on the hoist. 4.2.2 While operation ALWAYS make sure that the load is properly seated in the hook. ALWAYS tighten the slack out of the chain and sling when starting a lift to prevent a sudden loading.
Page 6
4.2.4 Maintenance ALWAYS let the qualified service personnel inspect the hoist periodically (Refer to 6.3). NEVER splice, add and weld a load chain for extension. 4.2.5 Others ALWAYS consult the manufacturer or your dealer if you plan to use a hoist in an excessively corrosive environment (saltwater, sea air and/or acid, explosive environment or other corrosive compounds, etc.).

(4) There are risks of overheating of the breaking system during prolonged lowering of loads. If you are considering of the use under such condition, consult KITO. Remark: The clicking sound of the pawl when a load is being raised indicates normal operation.
Any attempt to do so will void the warranty. Contact your closest KITO dealer, if service is required. The overload limiter device has been developed to avoid overloading. When an applied load exceeds the preset value, the hand chain wheel rotates idly.
7. INSPECTION 7.1 Outline There are two types of inspection, the daily inspection performed by the operator before using the hoist, and the more thorough periodic inspection performed by qualified service personnel who have the authority to remove the hoist from service. 7.2 Daily inspection Before each work shift, check the following points;...
