Qs/Qr/Qx - Tractel TLH Manual De Empleo

 TLR: make sure the lever (3) of each clamp presses down onto the top of the plates to be lifted,
if not, using the bolts (4/6) and adjusting pin (5), move each lever (3) one or several holes along.
Working temperature: -20°C to +100°C.

Simple (QS) or double (QR/ QX) hooks for lifting horizontal plates individually or in bundles.
QX: also enable the separation of horizontal piled plates.
QS: use in 4s with lifting beam and 2-legged slings.
QR: use in pairs and 1 4-legged sling.
QX: use in pairs and 1 2-legged sling.
1. Suspend the sling(s) previously fitted with the hooks.
2. Make sure there is clearance under the load to position the hooks.
3. Insert the hooks under the load making sure they are lined up and centered in relation with the
load centre of gravity (balanced load). The load should be driven home into the throat of the
hooks.
4. Perform a first lifting operation so as to ensure the hooks are well inserted and that the load is
well positioned.
5. Set down again if necessary so as to adjust the hooks' positioning.
6. Perform lifting.
QX: separating plates function
1. Insert the pointed end of the hook into the plates' joint.
2. Separate one sheet from the others slowly.
3. Insert a wedge under the load taken off and then set down again.
4. Repeat the operation on the opposite side so as to enable the lifting.
 Make sure plates are always driven home into the throat of the hooks.
The plates must be rigid enough not to bend while lifting operations are led.

 Adhere to the recommended sling angles : 50 to 60°.
 Considering the load length and weight, use 1 or several pairs of hooks to perform lifting.
 QX: load mini width : 390 mm.
QS/QR: do not permit separating plates.

 QX: do not use for separating fragile sheets (risk of load damage); separate only 1 sheet at once.
 For safety's sake, never leave hooks on the floor, pointed end upwards, when not in use.
 Working temperature: -20°C to +100°C.
Lever for separating manually horizontal sheet bundles.
1. Allow a wedge near the operating place.
2. Position the end (1) of the lever between 2 sheets.
3. Strike thanks to the sliding shaft (2) in order to insert this head between the plates.
4. By pulling the lever up, the upper plate locks itself in one of the lever's throat (3).
5. Slip the wedge between the 2 plates.
 Make sure the head of the lever is well inserted between the 2 plates, before tipping it up.
 Never separate more than 1 plate at once.
For safety's sake, never leave the lever on the floor, pointed end upwards, when not in use.
