IPHTON/IPHS lifting clamps are suitable for the horizontal lifting and transport of one
or more steel plates and structures.
2.1 How to operate the clamp
1.
Place the clamps on the plate and
exercise pressure, so that the innerside
of the jaw rests against the plate. (E)
2.
Tension the cables or chains with the
crane hook, while the innerside of the
jaw rests against the plate. (E).
3.
The load may now be lifted, paying care-
ful heed to maintaining constant tension
on the chains and/or cables
4.
As soon as the load is at its destination
let the crane hook descend until the
clamp is fully free of load, meaning that
the lifting chain is no longer taut.
5.
The clamps may now be removed from
the load. A crowbar may be used placed
between the ridges of the body. This will
allow the clamps to be simply turned
away under the plate.
