2 Brake control system
Test the brakes as follows:
• Hung the load
• Lift the load
• Lift and lower the load to various heights
• Check whether load holding in any position is ensured

8. Attachment and operation

1 Make sure the chain hoist is securely fastened. Be careful when choos-
ing fastening points. These points must be able to carry double the
load. If you are unsure as to whether the chosen point is the right one,
please choose a different one.
2 The chain hoist should be fastened so that it cannot change its posi-
tion during operation.
3 The latch locks which are attached to the fastening hook and the
load hook must always be closed during operation.
4 The maximum height of the anchor point must not be higher than 3.5
m.
Lifting the load (Fig. 5)
On the front side of the chain block there is an engraved arrow pointing
upwards, labelled "U". Pull the hand chain (2) on this side of the chain
block in order to lift the load. (Fig. 5/B)
Lowering the load (Fig. 5)
On the front side of the chain block there is an engraved arrow pointing
downwards, labelled "D". Pull the hand chain (2) on this side of the chain
block in order to lower the load. (Fig. 5/A)
m Attention
The braking system can become dangerously hot in exceptional cases
(continuous and fast lowering). In these cases it is necessary to lower the
load slowly and intermittently.

9. Cleaning and maintenance

• In order to achieve the longest possible operating efficiency and reliability
of the chain hoist, remove dirt regularly from your chain hoist, grease
the relevant parts thoroughly after use and store the hoist in a dry place.
• Do not carry out any technical alterations or repairs to the chain hoist;
have these carried out by an expert instead.
• The chain hoist must be regularly examined for damage.
• The working order of the chain hoist is to be checked regularly.
