Maximum weights for swing-arm models
Table showing the maximum permitted weights on the horizontal supports
& swiveling yokes:
Heater Series
VHIS 35
VHIS 75
VHIS 100
VHIS 200
VHIS 300
VHIS 400
• To avoid the heater from tipping and damage to the yokes and the hinge
construction, the maximum weight for each size yoke is restricted.
• Parts with a higher weight can rest on the horizontal supports (if fitted), or
be supported by a non-metallic rope from a crane, avoiding any weight on
the yoke.
Diagram showing how the work piece can be supported:
CAUTION!
• Always treat the yokes carefully. They can easily be
damaged through dropping, jolting etc. Always store
the yokes immediately after use.
