NOTICE
Ingersoll-Rand recognizes that most companies who use hoists have a safety program in force in their plants. In the event
you are aware that some conflict exists between a rule set forth in this publication and a similar rule already set by an
individual company, the more stringent of the two should take precedence.
Safe Operating Instructions are provided to make an operator aware of unsafe practices to avoid and are not necessarily
limited to the following list. Refer to specific sections in the manual for additional safety information.
1. Only allow people, trained in safety and operation of this product, to operate the hoist.
2. Only operate a hoist if you are physically fit to do so.
3. When a "DO NOT OPERATE" sign is placed on the hoist, do not operate the hoist until the sign has been
removed by designated personnel.
4. Before each shift, the operator should inspect the hoist for wear or damage.
5. Never use a hoist which inspection indicates is worn or damaged.
6. Periodically, inspect the hoist thoroughly and replace worn or damaged parts.
7. Lubricate the hoist regularly.
8. Do not use hoist if hook latch has been sprung or broken.
9. Check that the hook latches are engaged before using.
10. Never splice a hoist chain by inserting a bolt between links.
11. Only lift loads less than or equal to the rated capacity of the hoist. See "SPECIFICATIONS" section.
12. When using two hoists to suspend one load, select two hoists each having a rated capacity equal to or more than the
load. This provides adequate safety in the event of a sudden load shift.
13. Never place your hand inside the throat area of a hook.
14. Never use the hoist load chain as a sling.
15. Never operate a hoist when the load is not centered under the hook. Do not "side pull" or "yard."
16. Never operate a hoist with twisted, kinked, "capsized" or damaged load chain.
17. Do not force a chain or hook into place by hammering.
18. Never insert the point of the hook into a chain link.
19. Be certain the load is properly seated in the saddle of the hook and the hook latch is engaged.
20. Do not support the load on the tip of the hook.
21. Never run the load chain over a sharp edge. Use a sheave.
22. Pay attention to the load at all times when operating the hoist.
23. Always ensure that you, and all other people, are clear of the path of the load. Do not lift a load over people.
