7. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
7.1 WARNING:
Before each use ensure that the lever hoist is fully inspected.
Ensure that all chains are not twisted. The lever hoist must always be rigged to lift in a straight
line. The hoist must always be free to swivel on the upper hook and not be disrupted in any way.
Under no condition should the hoist frame or hanger bear any support or weight of the load.
NOTE: The ambient operating temperature of this lever hoist is between –10°C and +50°C.
7.2 MOUNTING THE CHAIN HOIST
Ensure that the hook sits over the holding beam of a
secure beam clamp or beam trolley. (ensure that the
beam clamp/trolley is of the same or greater weight rating
as the chain hoist).
The secure latch should be in the closed position once
the unit is hung. Before attaching the load, ensure the
hand chain runs freely.
7.3 FREE CHAINING
In this mode, the chain can be pulled through the hoist in either direction by hand for quick
attachment to the load.
With no load on the hoist, set the directional lever to the neutral position. Pull the free chaining dial
out and rotate in a counterclockwise direction, until the dial is sitting on top of the cam guide. The
internal gearing is now disengaged and the chain can be pulled through the hoist in either
direction.
WARNING:
NEVER RELEASE THE FREE CHAIN DIAL WHEN THE LOAD IS ATTACHED AS THIS WILL
CAUSE INJURY.
After the chain has been pulled to the length required, disengage the free chaining feature by
moving the direction lever to the load position and then rotate the free chaining dial in a clockwise
direction, until the dial engages the cam guide. Pull the chain in either direction to ensure the unit
is out of free chaining mode.
