Appropriate use

The permitted safe working load of the devices must not be exceeded! An exception can be made during the
load test before initial operation, carried out by a licensed qualified person.
 Defective devices and load suspension devices must not be used until they have been repaired! Only
original spare parts must be used. Non-compliance will result in any warranty claims becoming void.
 Liability and warranty will become void if unauthorized modifications of the units are made by the user!
 The permissible ambient temperature when operating the devices:
Type of drive
Manually driven
Motor driven
) * At an atmospheric pressure range from 0.8bar to 1.1bar and an oxygen content of approx. 21%
) ** Devices of this category have been specially modified and labeled by the manufacturer
DANGER!
The permissible ambient temperature must not be exceeded!
Vertical lifting and lowering of unguided loads, horizontal movement of loads and inclined movement of
loads, movement of flaps, covers etc. up to the maximum rated load.
NOTICE!
If the units are not used appropriately, it is not possible to ensure safe operation.
The owner and operator have sole liability for all personal injury and damage to property arising from
inappropriate use.
DANGER!
In particular, use is not permitted:
 for tearing loose fixed loads, dragging of loads as well as diagonal pulling
 for pulling against a fixed point without additional safety and/or measuring equipment against exceeding
the nominal load
 in potentially explosive atmospheres, unless the equipment has been modified for this purpose and
this is shown on special type plates it carries for this purpose.
 in reactor containments
for transporting persons

Basic safety measures

 Observe installation-, operation and maintenance instruction.
 Take notice of caution notes at units and in the manual
 Observe safety distances.
 Ensure good visibility during operations
 Use the equipment only for its intended purpose
 The equipment is only intended for moving goods. Persons must not be moved under any circumstances.
 Never load the equipment beyond the specified permissible load capacity.
 Observe the relevant national accident prevention regulations.
 Should the hoist be used outside of Germany, please pay attention to the national regulations that apply.
 Building walls, ceilings, floors or constructions - on which the units are mounted or suspended - must be
checked by a structural engineer for sufficient stability.
 After the unit has been standing for a longer period of time, visually inspect all components that are
important for its function and replace damaged components with new original spare parts.
