General
Each complete electric chain hoist is load tested in accordance to ANSI B30.16 at the factory at
125% of nameplate rated capacity, and is usually shipped assembled, unless otherwise stated on
order inquiry.
All hoists are designed for the type of mounting specified by the purchaser. The adequacy of the
supporting members (monorail beams, trusses, hangers, supports, framing, etc.) is the responsibility
of the user and shall be determined by qualified personnel.
Prior to permanent or field installation, units shall be checked thoroughly by qualified personnel for
damage during shipment or handling at the job site. Particular attention shall be taken to make sure
that the load chain and other mechanical or electrical components have not been damaged through
improper handling.
Read the instructions contained in this manual and observe the warning tags attached before
installation is started.
