MODEL NO: PFC101S

Thank you for purchasing a Sealey product. Manufactured to a high standard, this product will, if used according to these instructions,

and properly maintained, give you years of trouble free performance.

IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. NOTE THE SAFE OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS, WARNINGS & CAUTIONS. USE

THE PRODUCT CORRECTLY AND WITH CARE FOR THE PURPOSE FOR WHICH IT IS INTENDED. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE DAMAGE AND/OR

PERSONAL INJURY AND WILL INVALIDATE THE WARRANTY. KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS SAFE FOR FUTURE USE.

1. SAFETY

9 Keep crane, lifting slings, support and beams in good working order and condition. Take immediate action to repair or replace damaged

parts by contacting your supplier. Ensure that all accessory lifting devices are suitably certified.

 WARNING! If crane is damaged, remove from service immediately.

9 Ensure the surface on which the crane is used is level, firm and capable of supporting the weight of the crane with maximum load - we

recommend concrete. Never use the crane on tarmacadam or other soft surfaces.

9 Ensure the crane legs and arms are locked securely in position before use.

9 Keep children and unauthorised persons away from the working area.

9 Ensure the load is well balanced and its centre of gravity is within the working envelope of the crane (see Additional Specification).

9 Keep working area clean and tidy, free from unrelated materials and ensure that there is adequate lighting.

9 Ensure that load does not exceed the maximum lifting capacity of the crane. Overloading the crane is dangerous. Where appropriate, use

only the lifting points recommended by the manufacturer of the item to be lifted.

9 Before lifting the load ensure that the crane jib is in the lowest practical position, that there are no obstacles which may snag the load

whilst it is being lifted and that the area above the jib is clear.

9 To avoid injury, be fully aware of your own and other persons locations in relation to the lifting and lowering of the load.

9 Keep a sound footing and balance, and ensure the floor is not slippery.

9 Ensure jib extension is locked in position before lifting.

9 Ensure the centre of gravity always remains inside the crane base.

9 Ensuresu󰀩cientclearanceofanyobstructionsisprovidedwhenusingorperforminginspection,maintenanceandcleaningandthatthe

area is well lit, clutter free and there are no trip or slip hazards.

8 DO NOT harness the load at an angle or use any attachments not verified as fit for purpose.

8 DO NOT allow the load to swing during lifting.

8 DO NOT allow the load to drop suddenly. Lower load with care, ensuring that you are fully aware of the condition of the surface onto

which the load is to be placed.

8 DO NOT load crane beyond its rated capacity for each specified jib extension position as indicated on the adhesive label. The capacity of

the crane reduces as the jib is extended.

8 DO NOT position any part of your body beneath the load.

8 DO NOT use the crane to move or transport a load other than for repositioning. The crane is a lifting device only.

8 DO NOT apply any sideways pressure to any part of the crane during lifting or when a load is suspended.

8 DO NOT attempt to adjust the safety valve, which has been set and sealed by the manufacturer.

8 DO NOT use this product to perform a task for which it is not designed.

8 DO NOT use whilst under the influence of drugs, alcohol or intoxicating medication.

8 DO NOT climb on the crane.

9 When not in use fold the crane down and store in a safe, dry, childproof area.

9 This crane is designed for lifting within a garage or workshop environment.

 WARNING! Failure to heed safety and warning instructions may result in damage and/or personal injury and will invalidate the warranty.

5. OPERATION

5.1. Prior to using the crane, the hydraulic circuit needs to be bled in order to eliminate any air from the system. Insert the operational

 handle(g.6item7)intothemanifoldbody(seeg.6).

5.2.  Tobleedthesystem,gentlyraisetheairbleedtap(g.5)andoperatetheleverforseveralstrokes.Pushtheairbleedtapbackwhen

the system has been bled of air.

5.3. To adjust the hook location, depress the spring loaded button on the underside of the jib and slide the extendable arm to its required

 locationensuringthatthebuttonisfullylocatedandthatthearmissecurelylocated(seeg.7).
