This manual provides important information for all personnel involved with the safe installation
and operation of these products. Even if you feel you are familiar with this or similar equipment,
you should read this manual before operating the product.
AMH recognizes that most companies who use hoists have a safety program in force in their
plants. In the event you are aware that some conflict exists between a rule set forth in this
publication and a similar rule already set by an individual company, the more stringent of the two
should take precedence. Safe Operating Instructions are provided to make an operator aware
of unsafe practices to avoid and are not necessarily limited to the following list. Refer to specific
sections in the manual for additional safety information. Safe Operating Instructions are
provided to make an operator aware of unsafe practices to avoid and are not necessarily limited
to the following list.
1. Only allow people, trained in safety and operation
of this product, to operate the hoist.
2. Only operate a hoist if you are physically fit to do
so.
3. When a "DO NOT OPERATE" sign is placed on the
hoist, do not operate the hoist until the sign has
been removed by designated personnel.
4. Before each shift, the operator should inspect the

on the handle, and may cause the operator to fall

suspended load.
