This manual provides important information for all personnel involved with the safe installation and
operation of these products. Even if you feel you are familiar with this or similar equipment, you should
read this manual before operating the product.
AMH 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.
WARNING
To avoid serious injury or death:
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.
22. Pay attention to the load at all times when operating the
hoist.
23. Always ensure that you3, 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.
