WARNING: Lifting devices (hooks, chains, etc) must be
suitable, undamaged and not worn. Follow the local
laws to check these devices. Do not lift objects fixed
to the ground. Do not use the lifting device to tow,
uproot or tear out. Sudden changes in load may cause
instability and/or damage to the machine. To limit load
oscillations, do not use too long ropes and/or chains to
sling it. Check the working area and be sure there are
no obstacles which may obstruct the load when lifted.
To avoid sudden load oscillations, lift the load slowly
and avoid any sharp movement. Keep the load close
to the machine to improve stability and lift preferably
over its longitudinal axis rather than its transversal
axis. Keep the load as close as possible to the ground.
d
WARNING: Loads, when lifted, can oscillate or rotate
in any direction: it is possible that they hit persons or
the machine's cabin. Keep everybody away from the
machine range and handle the load slowly to avoid
any dangerous situation. Have the load guided from
a distance using e.g. ropes attached to the load. If the
load starts oscillating or rotating, slow down operation
and stop, place it carefully on firm ground and correct,
if necessary, the way it was hooked up.
d
WARNING: Respect the lifting hook's Working Load
Limit (WLL).
