BLACK BEAR HOIST
6. Cautions
6.1 Preliminary Inspection
1) Do not use the hoist if the Safety Latch of hook has been broken/damaged.
2) Safety Latch must be completely closed before use.
3) There should not be any damages or deformation on the hook and chain.
4) All the fixed bolts and nuts should be attached and screwed in tightly.
5) The hook should revolve easily and smoothly.
6) There should not be any dirt or other unusual substances on the hoist.
6.2 Prohibition of Overload
1) Never lift a load that is heavier than the rated capacity of the hoist.
2) Always check for the capacity, written on the name plate of the hoist.
3) All Black Bear hoists are manufactured with consideration of its working area conditions and are tested
with a greater load than its rated safe working load.
4) However, overloading hoists is extremely dangerous as it is considered the same as removing safety
device. ALWAYS operate hoists within the safe working load.
6.3 Safety Latch of Hook
1) When loading the bottom hook, devices like wires and ropes and slings are often used. The Safety
Latch on the hook prevents these other devices to not come off from the hook creating a dangerous
lifting situation. Do NOT detach the Safety Latch from the hook.
6.4 Prohibition of Hoist/Trolley Remodeling
1) Voluntary remodeling of the hoist/trolley by the user is strictly prohibited.
2) Use of this hoist/trolley as elevator (for both passenger and freight) is strictly prohibited.
6.5 Cautions During Operation
1) Make sure of the safe working load of the hoist (indicated on the trolley). When overloaded, it
could result in serious injury or damage to an operator.
2) Only use to lift vertically.
3) Keep the safe distance and move the hoist slowly along the beam.
4) Never place your hands/feet under the load. Always be aware of overhead loads.
5) Never hang a load with greater capacity than that of the hoist. Check capacity of the hoist before
use.
6) The hoist must hang centrally under the beam or under its suspension point.
7) Do not swing/shake a suspended load. Do not cut or weld a load that is suspended in the
hoist.
8) Lifetime of the hoist will be shortened if it is exposed to rain. If used outside, cover the entire hoist
to avoid rain.
