ing under load, then do not use the hand power puller any further, and have
it inspected and repaired by a qualified technician.
 While the cable is under load do not stand directly behind or over the hand
power puller but stand sidewise, in an angle of 90° to the hand power puller.
If the cable breaks under load, it can swing back severely. Do not stay in the
danger area and ensure that others are not endangered.
 During operation, keep your hands away from the load bearing cable and
other parts of the hand power puller.
 Turn the crank only by hand; do not attach motors of any kind.
 Under load at least three windings of cable must remain on the cable drum.
Otherwise the cable will be torn for the anchorage when it is entirely un-
rolled.
 If you pull heavy loads, hang a blanket or a jacket on the cable in a distance
of about 1 – 2 m away from the hook in order to significantly reduce the
risks caused by a breaking cable.
 Make sure the cable is wound properly on the cable drum, one winding next
to the other winding, without any knots or loops.
 Make sure all warning signs are clearly legible at all times.
 Service the hand power puller carefully. Check that movable parts function
correctly and do not jam, and whether any parts are broken or damaged in
such a way that the function of the hand power puller is impaired. Have any
damaged part repaired before using the hand power puller.
 The service life of the hand power puller and some parts are limited, worn
out parts must be replaced in a timely manner.
 Only allow qualified technicians to repair your hand power puller using only
original replacement parts. Once a year, have the hand power puller
checked by a qualified service technician.
 Do not leave the hand power puller unattended while in use. When the power
puller is in use, an authorized person must supervise the unit. Otherwise
there is risk of severe human injuries and damages to the unit.
 Protect the hand power puller from liquids of any kind and moisture. Rust
could damage the mechanical system and the cable of the power puller.
 Do not pull the cable over or around a corner.
 Do not wrap the cable around the load to be pulled but fasten the safety hook
on a rigid and suitable anchoring point on the load.
 Frist check the load to be pulled. Do not overload the hand power puller!
 Never use a pipe lever or other devices to lengthen the lever for additional
leverage. This will bend and destroy the hand power puller.
