1. pull,
2. tied.
#
Danger!
Death or serious injury due to falling loads when
several different SpanSet round slings or bridles are used. Use
identical SpanSet round slings or bridles.
#
Danger!
Death or serious injury due to loads falling from in-
clined positions. Use SpanSet round slings or bridles at the same
extension.
4.4.2 Determining nominal load capacity
The nominal load capacity is influenced by the slinging method (see
4.4.1
Choosing SpanSet round slings and bridles)
– The nominal load capacity must be greater than or equal to the mass of
the load.
– The actual effective load capacity is influenced by the slinging method
and the tilt angle at which the lifting procedure is to be carried out.
– To ensure SpanSet round slings or bridles can take a flat, wide cross
section, there must be a support of a sufficient width at both the
crane hook and the load.
4.4.3 Fastening to the load
– Hot, fluid loads must not be fastened.
– Fasten the SpanSet round slings or bridles to the load so that it
cannot slip or slide during the lifting process.
– Use a suitable edge guard or cover the surface of loads with sharp
edges or rough surfaces.
– The part of the load that is to be fastened to the SpanSet round sling
or bridle must be able to absorb the applied force.
