When suspending the load lifting attachment, the operator must ensure that neither the load
lifting attachment, the suspension (e.g. hook, shackle, etc.) nor the load pose a danger to
himself or other personnel.
Prior to operation of the load lifting attachment in special atmospheres (high humidity, salty,
caustic, alkaline) or handling hazardous goods (e.g. molten compounds, radioactive materials)
consult the manufacturer for advice.
The load lifting attachment may be used at ambient temperatures between –40° C and
+100° C. Consult the manufacturer in the case of extreme working conditions.
If longer sheet metal plates or bundles of sheets are to be transported, we recommend that
further suspension pairs in combination with a spreader beam be used to prevent load sway
and excessive deflection of the load.
Attention: Observe inclination angle of 30° and 45°!
Always transport the load slowly, carefully and close to the ground.
Only use crane hooks with a safety latch.
The suspension eye of the load lifting attachment must have sufficient space in the crane hook
and be freely articulating.
In the case of malfunctions, stop using the load lifting attachment immediately.

Do not exceed the rated load capacity (WLL) of the unit.
Only loads within the specified jaw capacity must be picked up.
Inclination angle β of the chain slings of the lifting gear must not be smaller than 30° and not
larger than 45°.
Any modifications of the load lifting attachment are prohibited.
It is forbidden to use the load lifting attachment for the transportation of persons.
When transporting loads ensure that the load does not swing or come into contact with other
objects.
