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. Refer to “SPECIFICATION” 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.
24. Never use the hoist for lifting or lowering people, and
never allow anyone to stand on a suspended load.
25. Ease the slack out of the chain and sling when starting a
lift. Do not jerk the load.
26. Do not swing a suspended load.
27. Do not leave a load suspended when the hoist is unattended
or not in use.
28. Never weld or cut on a load suspended by the hoist.
29. Never use the hoist chain as a welding electrode.
30. Do not operate hoist if chain jumping, excessive noise,
jamming, overloading, or binding occurs.
31. Only operate the hoist with manual power.
32. After use, or when in a non-operational mode, the hoist
should be secured against unauthorized and unwarranted
use.
