Safe working load

Different products on the same lift system (lift unit, slingbar, sling and other lifting accessories) may have different al-
lowable safe working loads. The lowest allowable safe working load always determines the safe working load of the
assembled system. Always check the safe working loads for the lift and accessories before use. Contact your dealer if
you have any questions.
