Mechanical connection

Use only original accessories, in case of doubt consult the manufacturer.
Take care that the carrying capacity / working load limit (WLL) of the lifting device/carrier is not exceeded,
through the load of the device, the optional attaching devices (turning device, fork sleeves, crane boom
etc.) and the additional load of the gripping goods!
Gripping devices always have to be gimballed, so they can swing freely in any position.
In no case it is allowed to mount gripping devices with lifting devices/carriers in a rigid way!
Break of the suspension may occur within short time. Death, severe injuries and material damage can
result!
When using the device on optional attachments (such as fork sleeves, crane boom, etc.), it cannot be
excluded, due to the lowest possible construction of the total device (to avoid loss of lifting height), that
the device may collide with adjacent components if the device is suspended in an oscillating motion and
unfavourable positioning during travel movements of the carrier device. This should be avoided as far as
possible by positioning the device appropriately and in a sensible driving style. Damage resulting from this
will not be regulated within the scope of the warranty.
4.1.1

Standard flange plate

The device is attached to the lifting equipment/carrier with a standard flange plate or a custom made flange
plate connection.
Attaching the device to the lifting equipment/carrier take care that all local safety regulations are observed.
When attaching the device to a forklift truck, the plate with the transport ring must be unscrewed from the
flange plate. Depending on the case of use, a rotary head/rotary motor can be attached to the flange plate.
This is attached either to a fork sleeve or to a crane boom.
4.1.2

Fork sleeves (optional)

To establish a mechanical connection between the fork lift truck and the fork sleeves you have to put the
forks into the fork sleeves 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.
