4.1

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

Lifting eye / Suspension bolt

The device is equipped with a lifting eye / suspension bolt and can be mounted on various carrier / lifting
devices.
Take care that the lifting eye / suspension bolt is safely joined with the lifting tackle (e.g. crane hook,
belt) and cannot slide down.
4.1.2 Load hooks and lifting tackle
The device is attached to the carrier/lifting device with a load hook or a suitable lifting tackle.
Ensure that the single chains strands are not twisted or knotted.
Attaching the device to the lifting device/carrier, take care that all local safety regulation is observed.
