SAFETYOPERATIONINSPECTION INSTALLATION
Installation Specific Safety Information
1. The supporting structure the hoist is mounted
to (including trolley, monorail, or crane) must
be designed to withstand the loads and forces
imposed by the hoist for the rated load.
2. Install in location that allows the operator
to move and stay clear of the load.
3. Locate pendant controls at a convenient
level above the operating floor.
4. Do not install where the load hook can
be lowered beyond the rated hook travel
under normal operating conditions.
5. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD.
An extension cord would cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
6. Inspect the hoist as explained in Frequent Inspection
on page 8 after installation but before use.
Inspection, Testing, and Maintenance Specific Safety Information
1. Perform a “Frequent Inspection”
at least monthly, see page 8.
2. Perform a “Periodic (Thorough) Inspection”
at least yearly, see page 8.
3. More frequent inspections are needed
for hoists that are used heavily.
4. Raise test loads only to the minimum extent needed
and stay well clear of load at all times during testing.
