How to operate the clamp
IP(U)10 lifting clamps are suitable for the lifting, turning and vertical transport of steel plates and
structures. Lifting clamps with a Working Load Limit (W.L.L.) of 12 ton or more are equipped with
lifting brackets on the body to place and to remove the lifting clamp horizontally on and from the
load. For this operation, an auxiliary chain with hook attached to the master link is needed.

brackets!
2. Place the clamp securely on the plate so that the jaw of the clamp rests on the plate (E) (4).
3. Pull the latch lever (A) towards the lifting eye (D). The clamp will now close and will remain on
the plate in pretensioned position, allowing lifting to commence (5).
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 and the lifting eye (D) of the clamp can
move freely. To release the load pull the latch lever (A) towards the jaw, allowing the clamp to
be and remain opened (6).
5. The clamp may now be used again immediately or put away in opened position. This position
will protect the teeth from damage (7).
6. When the lifting brackets are used to place or remove the clamp from the load, be aware that
the auxiliary hook is removed from the lifting bracket, allowing lifting to commence.
