1-2. Safety Instructions
Serious injury could result if the following safety instructions are not followed.
: IMPROPER electric chain hoist use could result in death or
serious injury.
To avoid these hazards:
“ALWAYSs”
ALWAYS allow only qualified (trained in safety and operation) people to operate
the hoist.
ALWAYS operate a hoist only if you are physically fit.
ALWAYS check the hoist before daily use according to the Recommended Daily
Inspection (Refer to Sec. 5).
ALWAYS let the authorized personnel inspect the hoist periodically (Refer to Sec.
5).
ALWAYS make sure that the chain length is long enough for the intended job.
ALWAYS check that the hook latches are in proper working order before use (Refer
to Sec. 5-6).
ALWAYS replace all missing and broken hook latches.
ALWAYS be sure that the hoist’s rated capacity, which is found on the hoist’s label,
is well in excess of the weight of the load.
ALWAYS make sure that you and others are clear of the load before lifting begins.
ALWAYS be sure that the load is properly seated in the saddle of the hook.
ALWAYS keep the load from hitting the chain.
ALWAYS use two hoists which each has rated capacities equal to or more than the
load to be lifted whenever you must use two hoists to lift a load. This will
provide adequate protection in the event that a sudden load shift or failure
of one hoist occurs.
