ANCHORING:

5.1. tirfor ® machines:
Incorrect anchoring can lead to a serious
risk. Before operating the hoist the user
should always check that the anchorage
point(s) for the device or the wire rope are
strong enough to take the force to be
applied.
The anchoring device for models TU

TU 12PM is a hook fitted with a safety catch.
In all cases, the anchorage must be performed
in such a way that the safety catch is in the
correct closed position, pressing on the tip of
the hook. These recommendations for the hook
on the device also apply to the hook on the wire
rope.

The TU 24PM model is attached using a
removable anchor pin, which passes through

anchor the device (fasten the anchor pin):
• Move the spring clip on the lock pin holding the
anchor pin in the unlocked position.

pin end, pushing it fully in.

that it is correctly locked on the anchor pin so
that the lock pin cannot be removed.
