Lower the load lifting attachment suspended in the suspension (e.g. hook, shackle, etc.)
centrally above the load centre of gravity until the loops of the Big-Bag can be attached in the
openings on the ends of the spreader beam. Make sure that the safety latches of the openings
are then closed.
Lift the suspension (e.g. hook, shackle, etc.) slowly and carefully to check whether the load
lifting attachment with the picked up load moves to an impermissible position at an angle of
more than 6°.
After completion of the transport operation, the load lifting attachment must be lowered until
the operator can take the loops of the load out of the openings.

NSPECTION ERVICE
According to national and international accident prevention and safety regulations hoisting
equipment must be inspected:
• in accordance with the risk assessment of the operating company,
• prior to initial operation,
• before the unit is put into service again following a shut down
• after substantial changes,
• however, at least once per year, by a competent person.
Attention: Actual operating conditions (e.g. operation in galvanizing facilities) can
dictate shorter inspection intervals.
Repair work may only be carried out by specialist workshops that use original TIGRIP spare
parts. The inspection (mainly consisting of a visual inspection and a function check) must
determine that all safety devices are complete and fully operational and cover the condition of
the unit, suspension, equipment and supporting structure with regard to damage, wear,
corrosion or any other alterations.
Initial operation and recurring inspections must be documented (e.g. in the CMCO works
certificate of compliance).
If required, the results of inspections and appropriate repairs must be verified.
Paint damage should be touched up in order to avoid corrosion. All joints and sliding surfaces
should be slightly lubricated. In the case of heavy contamination, the unit must be cleaned.
Repairs may only be carried out by specialist workshops that use original TIGRIP spare
parts.
After repairs have been carried out and after extended periods of non-use, the load lifting
attachment must be inspected again before it is put into service again.
The inspections have to be initiated by the operating company.
