FOREWORD
This book contains important information to help you install,
operate and maintain your new BUDGIT Air Hoist. We
recommend that you study its contents thoroughly before
putting your hoist to use. Through proper installation,
application of correct operating procedures, and by practicing
the recommended maintenance suggestions you will be
assured maximum service from your hoist.
Complete inspection, maintenance and overhaul service is
available for BUDGIT Air Hoists at authorized BUDGIT Repair
Stations. Refer to your telephone directory yellow pages under
“HOISTS.” They are staffed by qualified factory-trained
servicemen and stock approved BUDGIT replacement parts.
Replacement parts information is also included in this book
for your convenience. Since it will likely be a long time before
parts information is needed, we suggest that, after you have
become familiar with operation and preventive maintenance
procedures, this book be carefully filed for future reference.
EQUIPMENT ILLUSTRATED AND DESCRIBED HEREIN IS
NOT DESIGNED OR SUITABLE FOR LIFTING OR LOWERING
PERSONS.
