FLOOR/CHAIN MOUNT
— CONTINUED
WARNING
1. The only approved method to secure the Model #2281
chain mount is with the 2 mounting chains provided. DO
NOT attempt to use any other object to secure the puller.
2. Inspect the mounting chains for wear before each
installation.
3. NEVER alter the mounting chains or handles.
WARNING
ALWAYS inspect the structural integrity of any supports,
conduit, anchoring system etc. that will hold the cable puller
during the pull. These supports should be able to withstand
the maximum pulling force of the cable puller plus a safety
factor of 3:1. Example: 10,000 lb. puller should be anchored
to a support that can withstand 30,000 lbs. of pull.
WARNING
DO NOT mount the Model #2281 chain mount to square columns
or I-Beams. The mounting chains will not tighten properly on these
structures.
WARNING
When using the Model #2281 chain mount, never tighten chain as
shown in Figure A. This causes side loading of the chain and can
result in failure of the chain or screw causing components to come
loose and possibly cause serious injury or death. Figure B shows
the proper alignment of screw and chain for tightening.

chain handle holes. (See Figure 19).
