Installation

4 Mechanical connection
Generally the device must be suspended on the carrier/lifting equipment so, that it can swing freely in any position.
If this there any restriction in these swinging, mechanical breaks/damages could occur to the suspension or parts of the
device.
4.1

Lifting eye / Suspension bolt

●
The device is equipped with a lifting eye / suspension bolt and can be mounted on various carrier / lifting
devices.
●
Take care that the lifting eye / suspension bolt is safely joined with the lifting tackle (e.g. crane hook, belt)
and cannot slide down.
●
The maximum carrying capacity/working load limit (WLL) of the carrier/lifting device is not allowed to
exceed by the dead weight of the device and the maximum load.
4.1.1

Load hook and chains

●
Fit suspension ring in the load hook of the lifting device/carrier.
●
Ensure that the single chains strands are not twisted or knotted.
●
Attaching the device to the lifting device/carrier, take care that all local safety regulation is observed.
●
The carrying capacity/working load limit (WLL) of the lifting device/carrier must not be exceeded by the
dead weight of the device and the maximum load weight.
4.1.2

Fork sleeves (optional)

●
To establish a mechanical connection between the fork lift and the fork sleeve you have to put the fork into
the fork sleeve and fix it with the locking bolt or with a chain/rope, connected to the eyelet on the fork
sleeves and the lift frame.
●
It is definitely necessary to establish this connection. Otherwise the device could slide form the forks.
