Single-Rope Rigging
Single-rope rigging is used for most conventional lifting and allows the maximum
lifting height and speed for the hoist. No special setup is needed for operation.
Simply attach the hook at the end of the cable to the load. For wire rope and hoist
maximum load lifting capacities, see Table 4.1.
Maximum Working-Load Capacity
Every wire rope user should be aware of the fact that each type of fitting attached
to a wire rope has a specific efficiency rating which can reduce the working load of
the rope assembly or rope system, and this must be given due consideration in
determining the capacity of a wire rope system.
NOTE:
ISO 4309:2004 details wire rope in-service guidelines for the care,
maintenance, installation, examination, and discard criteria for safe use of the hoist.
