Equipment labelling
The identification label/name plate details the product type, model, manufacturer, working
load limit (WLL), serial number and the grade and size of the load chain. The CE marking
indicates compliance with the essential health and safety requirements of the Machinery
Directive 2006/42/EC. Other international standards that the unit conforms to may be shown.
Improper use of chain blocks could result in death or serious injury, to avoid these hazards:
Always use the hoist within 2% of its rated load capacity (WLL) and its maximum rated load
capacity (WLL)
Always allow only competently trained people to operate the hoist.
Always make sure the chain block suspension hook is securely attached to a suitable
support.
Always maintain a firm footing or be otherwise secured when operating the chain block.
Always make sure that load slings or other approved sling attachments are properly sized
and seated in the hook saddle. Always make sure that the hook latch, is closed and not
supporting any part of the load.
Always make sure that the load is free to move and will clear all obstructions.
Always take up slack chain carefully, check load balance, then lift a few centimetres and
check to be sure the brake will hold the load and that attachments to the load are firmly seated.
Always avoid any swinging of the load or load hook.
Always protect load chain from weld spatter or other damaging contaminants.
Always report any malfunction, unusual performance or damage of lifting equipment to the
appropriate person promptly.
Always inspect the chain block regularly, replace damaged or worn parts and keep
appropriate records of maintenance.
Always use genuine parts when repairing the chain block.
Always warn personnel of your intention to move a load in their area.
Always be sure that the hoist's rated capacity, is in excess of the weight of the load.
Always keep the load from hitting the chain.
Always use two hoists which have rated capacities equal to or more than the load to be lifted
whenever you must use two hoists to lift a load.
Always check for loose or missing parts before use.
Always lubricate the hoist regularly.
Always pay attention to the load at all times when operating the hoist.
Always secure a hoist and loads properly after use.
Always stop using the hoist immediately in case of functional defects or abnormal operating
noise.
Always observe that the chain hangs straight (without twists) from chain block to lower hook.
Always lift in a straight line from hook to hook.
Always make sure the chain block is free to swivel on the upper hook.
Improper use of chain blocks could result in death or serious injury, to avoid these hazards:
Never attempt to lift more than the rated load capacity (WLL) of the suspension and the suppor-
ting structure.
Never attempt to lift below 2% of the rated load capacity (WLL) of the suspension and the sup-
porting structure.
Never allow your attention to be diverted from operating the chain block.
