Carrier, precautions
WARNING Falling carrier
If the load-bearing capacity of the carrier used is
insufficient, the carrier will not be stable. It can
topple over and cause injuries and damage.
Using a carrier whose load-bearing capacity is too
high will greatly burden the hydraulic attachment
causing it to wear faster.
►
Only attach the hydraulic attachment to a
hydraulic carrier of a suitable load-bearing
capacity.
►
The carrier must remain stable at all times.
►
Read the carrier manufacturer's Safety and
operating Instructions before attaching the
hydraulic attachment to the carrier and
operating it. Observe all instructions.
Transport, precautions
WARNING Risk of death due to suspended
loads
When lifting loads these can swing out and fall.
This can result in serious injuries or even death.
►
Never stand underneath or in the swinging
range of suspended loads.
►
Only move loads under supervision.
►
Only use approved lifting equipment and lifting
gear with sufficient load bearing capacity.
►
Do not use worn lifting gear (ropes, belts,
chains, shackles etc.).
►
Do not place lifting gear such as ropes and
belts on sharp edges or corners, do not knot
these or twist them.
►
When leaving the workplace, set down the load.
WARNING Injury due to swivelling load
When transporting the load by crane it can swivel
and cause severe injuries and considerable
damage to property.
►
Ensure that no personnel, objects or obstacles
are located in the swivel range of the load.
