The following are guidelines for the safe operation of overhead hoist trolleys A few minutes spent reading these rules can make an operator aware
of dangerous practices to avoid and precautions to take for personal safety and the safety of others. Frequent examinations and periodic inspections
of the equipment as well as the use of "common sense" and observance of safety rules may save lives, time and money.
HOIST TROLLEY SELECTION
1.
MILWAUKEE trolleys are designed for use with most hook
mounted hoists with load ratings up to 3 tons. Adjustment to
a wide range of beam sizes is accomplished with the placement of
spacer washers (see "Installation and Adjustment").
2.
This hoisting equipment is intended for industrial use only,
and should not be used to lift, support, or otherwise transport people.
3.
Choose a hoist trolley with the capacity for the job. Know the
capacities of your hoists and the weight of your loads, then match
them.
4.
Before installing, make certain that the hoist capacity does
not exceed the rated load of the trolley, and that the supporting
structure is capable of supporting the weight of the load, hoist and
trolley with a generous factor for safety.
5.
The application, size and type of load, attachments and period
of use must be taken into consideration when selecting the right
hoist trolley for the job.
HOIST TROLLEY INSPECTION
6.
Do not operate a damaged or malfunctioning hoist trolley.
Do not operate a hoist trolley with a twisted, kinked or damaged
hoist.
7.
All hoist trolleys should be visually inspected before use in
addition to regular, periodic maintenance inspections. In-
spect hoist trolleys regularly and insure that operational warning
labels and tubes are legible. Replace damaged or worn parts and
keep appropriate records of maintenance.
8.
Deficiencies should be noted and brought to the attention
of a supervisor. Be sure defective hoist trolleys are tagged
and taken out of service until repairs are made. Under no
circumstances should you operate a malfunctioning hoist
trolley.
