Note that UV radiation (sunlight) may impair the properties of
the sling.
Use Magnum-X round slings so that the latter may be removed
without damage after the lifting process.
3 Operating Magnum-X round slings
3.1 First use
Before first use, the user must inspect the Magnum-X round slings for
compliance with the order, completeness of accompanying docu-
ments (e.g. declaration of conformity and manufacturer certificate)
and conformance of the data in the accompanying documents with
the product labels. Upon first use, an authorized person must make a
visual check and document it according to BGR 500. For this, a chart
can be created or an inspection card filled out and saved. Equipping
products with RFID tags and electronic documentation of commissio-
ning, such as with IDXpert® (database), speeds up and simplifies the
routine described.
3.2 Choosing the right Magnum-X round slings hangers
Determine the load's weight by weighing or calculation! Find out
the position of the load's centre of gravity from design documents or
calculate it! The crane hook must be positioned perpendicularly to the
load's centre of gravity, and the length and angle of the Magnum-X
round slings must be determined.
