Safety Summary
WARNING
• Do not use this hoist or attached equipment for lifting,
supporting, or transporting people or lifting or supporting
loads over people.
• The supporting structures and load-attaching devices used
in conjunction with this hoist must provide an adequate
safety factor to handle the rated load, plus the weight of the
trolley and attached equipment. This is the customer’s
responsibility. If in doubt, consult a registered structural
engineer.

SAFETY INFORMATION
The National Safety Council, Accident Prevention Manual for
Industrial Operations, Eighth Edition and other recognized
safety sources make a common point: Employees who work near
suspended loads or assist in hooking on or arranging a load
should be instructed to keep out from under the load. From a
safety standpoint, one factor is paramount: conduct all lifting or
pulling operations in such a manner that if there were an
equipment failure, no personnel would be injured. This means
keep out from under a raised load and keep out of the intended
path of any load.
Ingersoll-Rand Material Handling hoists are manufactured in
accordance with the latest ASME B30.16 standards.
The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 generally
places the burden of compliance with the user, not the
manufacturer. Many OSHA requirements are not concerned or
connected with the manufactured product but are, rather,
associated with the final installation. It is the owner’s and user’s
responsibility to determine the suitability of a product for any
particular use. It is recommended that all applicable industry,
trade association, federal, state and local regulations be checked.
Read all operating instructions and warnings before operation.
Rigging: It is the responsibility of the operator to exercise
caution, use common sense and be familiar with proper rigging
techniques. Refer to ASME B30.9 for rigging information,

York, NY 10018.
