• After testing in the unloaded state, a load of at least 100 lbs (single line) and 200 lbs. (double line) shall be applied
to the hoist in order to check proper load control.
A hoist where load-suspension parts have been altered, replaced, or repaired shall be statically or dynamically load tested:
• The need for these tests shall be determined by a qualified person.
• A written report of the test should be prepared and placed on file.
• The test load shall not be less than 100% of the rated load of the hoist or more than 125% of the rated load of the
hoist unless otherwise recommended by the manufacturer or a qualified person.
• The replacement of the web strap is excluded from this load test, but should be tested in accordance with the
operational testing detailed above.
• Test anchorages or suspensions shall be approved by a qualified person.
