Safety Information - Powerfix Profi CHAIN HOIST 1000 KG Bedienungs- Und Sicherheitshinweise Originalbetriebsanleitung

5. Safety information

1 The rated load limit must not be exceeded, as overload can damage the chain
hoist or reduce the lifting capacity in the future.
Do not use electrical appliances to operate the chain hoist. The chain hoist
2
is designed for manual use only.
Do not try to repair the load chain. If it is damaged, the load chain should
3
only be replaced by an expert. The load chain must be replaced with a new
one of the same welded and hardened steel, in the same size and strength/
thickness.
The load chain should be greased before use.
4
The brake surfaces must not be greased. The brake must be kept dry
5
6 Make sure that the load chain has no knots. If there are knots in the load
chain, these must be removed before use.
Make sure the load chain is hung on the chain pulley before each use.
7
When pulling the hand chain, stand in the same position and angle as the
8
drive wheel. Do not pull at an oblique angle. A secure posture is necessary.
Do not lift the load so that it is above any persons. Do not allow any persons
9
to walk underneath the load. If you wish to lift a load, please warn anyone
in the surrounding area.
10 Do not lift any persons with the chain hoist.
The load must be held firmly in the hook. Try not to lift the load with the point
11
of the load hook.
12 Pull the hand chain evenly, to avoid thrusts or entanglements.
13 If the chain is barred or cannot be pulled further, please stop. Examine and
resolve the problem. Do not attempt to use force on the chain hoist. Do not
leave the load hanging in the air.
14 Please do not lower the load further than the usable length of the chain. If
the chain between the chain wheel and the chain pulley is pulled too taught,
this can cause damage.
Do not allow the load to come into contact with the chain hoist, otherwise
15
free rotation will be blocked, which could cause damage, knots in the chain
or barred wheels.
Regular checks and maintenance should be carried out. All damaged or faulty
16
parts must be exchanged by an expert.
17 The chain hoist functioning in both "with load" as well as "without load"
modes must be thoroughly and adequately checked.
Make sure the load weight is smaller than the stated weight of the chain hoist.
18
If in doubt, do not use the chain hoist.
Never overload the chain hoist.
