2. Permitted Applications

The TLW lifting clamps are specifically designed for horizontal lifting and transporting tubes, bundles of tubes and
round material. The pewag TLW lifting clamp includes 4 clamping jaws, a lifting eye and a lock for the open position.
The clamp is locked in an open position. The clamp closes by turning the lever away and moving the lifting eye
upwards. The device is now ready for lifting. The clamp opens automatically when the load is put down. For lifting
the aforementioned materials, the TLW safety clamps can be used per item or with several clamps simultaneously.
It is important that the load is equally divided over each clamp when using 2 or more clamps. It is recommended to
use an spreader beam in that case. You can request additional technical documentation from the manufacturer.

3. Operating instructions

Place the clamp in an open position exactly in the centre of the object that has to be lifted or - in case of using
several clamps - equally divided over the object that has to be lifted. Turn the safety lever away so that the clamp
can close when the crane starts to hoist. Guide this until the object starts to come off the ground. Now you can lift
the object unguided. Upon reaching the destination, lower the crane hook until the clamp is completely free of the
load, in other words, the lifting chain is no longer taut and the clamp and chain can move freely. Close the safety
lever. The clamp can now be reused immediately or stored away in the open position.
