all locking-bolts (49) while one person
holding the load/device by hand.
c) Remove the load/device from bottom hook

INSPECTION / MAINTENANCE

Inspections should be carried out by a com-
petent person prior to initial operation. The
accident prevention act is valid for the respec-
tive country where the product is used. And
also the commonly accepted regulations for
safe and professional work must be adhered
too.
The inspections are mainly visual and functio-
nal and shall establish that the components
of the unit are in perfect condition and do not
show signs of damage, wear, corrosion or other
irregularities. All safety devices are to be chek-
ked for completeness and effectiveness.
Repairs may only be carried out by a
specialist workshop that uses original
Yale spare parts.
The inspections have to be initiated by
the operating company.
