Operation Instructions
Read the ENTIRE IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION section at the beginning of this
manual including all text under subheadings therein before set up or use of this product.
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY: Operation of a vertical hoist involves more than pulling the hand
chain of a hand chain operated hoist. The use of vertical hoists is subject to certain hazards that
cannot be met by mechanical means, but only by the exercise of intelligence, care, common sense,
and experience in anticipating the motions that will occur as a result of operating the controls.
Before Operating Hoist
1. Familiarize yourself with all operating controls
of the hoist and with the operation(s) to be
performed. Instructions include, the warnings
on the hoist, and the safety and operating
instructions portion of this manual.
2. WARNING! TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY
FROM HOIST FAILURE:
Do not use damaged equipment.
If adjustments or repairs are necessary,
or any defects are known, have the
problem corrected before further use.
3. Do not operate a hoist with an out-of-order sign.
4. Only a qualified technician should
perform maintenance to the hoist.
5. Do not use the chain or rope as a ground for welding.
6. Do not touch a welding electrode to the chain or rope.
7. Only operate hand chain operated
hoists with hand power, with no more
than one operator per hand chain.
8. Designate a work area that is clean and well-lit.
The work area must not allow access by children
or pets to prevent distraction and injury.
9. There must not be objects, such as utility lines,
nearby that will present a hazard while working.
10. Inspect the hoist as explained in Frequent Inspection
on page 8 after installation but before use.
