• Overloading can cause the LH200 to
fail and the transported load to fall!
Therefore, observe the minimum
useful weight of the LH200.
• If the minimum weight is undercut,
this will restrict the lowering and posi-
tioning function. Therefore, observe
the minimum weight of the load.
• It is not allowed to use the LH200 to
secure persons.
• Incorrectly attached loads may fall and
endanger the operator. Therefore, use
suitable connectors to attach the load
to the support rope or the pulleys.
• Positioning the anchor point outside
the designated location can cause the
load to swing, and therefore endanger
the operator and other persons in the
vicinity. Therefore, always attach the
anchor point directly above the desig-
nated place.
• When selecting the anchor point,
ensure that it can bear a load of at
least 500 kg.
• Icy or heavily soiled ropes can hinder
the blocking mechanism and cause
the load to fall. Therefore, look after
and clean the ropes; if necessary.
• When using the LH200, there is a risk
of tripping on the unwound pull rope.
• Using this device without gloves can
lead to injuries of the hands. Therefore,
wear safety gloves when using this
device.

POSSIBLE MISUSES

• Long, loose hair can become caught in
the moving part of the load holder.
Therefore, wear appropriate hair
protection and a helmet, or attach the
load securing device out of reach.
• The transported load can fall, if unsuit-
able lanyards are used (rope diameter,
rope expansion etc.). Only use original
ropes from BORNACK. Wear a safety
helmet.
• Rule out the risk of a fall load caused
by slack rope.
• Do not stand under suspended loads.
Operators must wear a safety helmet
and safety shoes.
• When working close to live parts,
select a suitable anchor point outside
the electrical hazard zone for the load
holder.
• The rope may jump out of the pulley, if
the pulley is not mounted or secured
correctly.
• When using pulleys, both plates of the
pulley always need to be secured by a
connector acc. to EN 362.
• When using double pulleys, the rope
needs to be inserted through both
rollers of the double pulley.
• A rope clamp must be used when
using the 9 mm kernmantle rope.
• In case of strong winds, conduct a
hazard assessment to check whether it
can be used outdoors.
