Operating Manual Page 23 of 64 BL148GB2017 / 11
7.2 Transporting material
• The operator is responsible for correct loading and unloading and
for correctly securing the load.
• Use appropriate lifting gear for loading and unloading. Only use
lifting gear that is designed for the weight of the load.
• Never drive the lifting gear into the car.
• Secure load with fastenings so that any movement is impossible
during transport.
• Distribute the load evenly and centrally in the car.
• Observe the maximum permissible load capacity.
• Never cover doors, control panels, emergency call system, first aid
kits or warning notices with the load. They must remain accessible
at all times.
• Fall protection to prevent persons from falling must be provided at
loading heights above ≥ 6’-6 ¾“ (2.0 m).
• Material must not project into the travel path of the hoist.
• When transporting material, this must not lead to a concentration of
abrasive/corrosive substances. If this cannot be safely excluded,
then the corrosion protection and/or the functional reliability of the
electrical components must be inspected at regular intervals and, if
necessary, replaced.
• The generation/accumulation of (explosive) fine particulate matter
must be prevented/removed immediately.
• When using the heating in the car, care must be taken to ensure
that the material is kept a sufficient distance from the heating unit.
• Material which emits combustible gases (e.g. petrol, solvents etc.)
must only be transported with the heating unit switched off.
7.3 Maintenance/ repair / servicing / tasks on electrical
components
• All relevant individuals (e.g. operating personnel, superiors) must be
informed before work commences about the work being carried out.
• Before carrying out servicing/repair work, the hoist must be turned
off at the master switch and secured against unauthorised switch-
on.
• Work on electric/live components must only be carried out by
qualified electrical personnel.
• Affected electrical parts must be de-energised (disconnect the
mains voltage upstream of the main switch).
• Do not touch sockets, cables or electrical components with wet or
damp hands.
• All tasks on electrical components must only be carried out using
insulated tools.
• The hoist must only be connected to a building site main cabinet in
accordance with IEC 60439-4:2004.
