6. Important Notes on Operation

of all models
6.1 Never park or store the spreader beam outside.
Putting the spreader beam
outside can lead to damage at the
spreader beam and screws or
similar parts can corrode. Always
NOTE
stock the spreader beam in the hall.
6.2 Note the lifting capacity of the spreader beam
(shown on the type plate). Never overload the spreader
beam. If the type plate is lost or illegible, stop using the
spreader beam until it has been identified or labelled
again.
An overloaded spreader beam
can lead to failure and crash of the
load.
DANGER
6.3 Always check the spreader beam for functional
capability, damage and wear before every use. Never
use overloaded, damaged or worn spreader beams.
Check free movement and sufficient fastening of
moveable parts.
A no longer operational spreader
beam can lead to failure, slipping,
tilting or crash of the load.
DANGER
6.4 In case of too big crane hooks, attach the spreader
beam by a suitable transition sling to the suspension.
Always secure the crane hook.
If the crane hook is too small it can
cause the spreader beam to swing.
A swinging Spreader Beam can
damage machines and equipments
or hurt persons standing nearby. If
DANGER
the crane hook is not secured, there
is the danger of unintentional release
of the spreader beam from the crane
hook which can cause the Spreader
Beam and/or the load to crash.
