DA N G E R !
For all air hoist applications, ensure that the
load hook can be lowered all the way to the
ground, in order to prevent a load being moved
to the lower limit position, without reaching
the ground. Danger due to overloading.
DA N G E R !
Never use hoists on the ground if they
are not specifically intended for horizontal
pulling.
DA N G E R !
The fatigue strength of chains is significantly
impaired due to extreme corrosion (pitting
corrosion). There is a
danger of fracture
.
Hydrogen-induced embrittlement with
resultant stress cracks due to highly corro-
sive media (e.g. seawater) may affect high-
strength steels (e.g. chains). Danger of
fracture! This process is promoted by so-
called recombination poisons. Examples of
these are hydrogen sulphide, cyanide, arsenic
compounds and rhodanide.
If rusty chains are not replaced for opera-
tional reasons, crack inspections are to be
performed at intervals of three months.
Company operating instructions
In the case of particularly difficult lifting equipment
applications, the company must provide comprehensible
operating instructions in the language of the operator,
within the framework of this operation manual. Here,
measures for safe operation are stipulated in accordance
with prevailing operating conditions.
Furthermore, it is essential that all the regulations set
out in sections
Intended use
, page 13 and
Operating
conditions,
page 13, are observed.
