Safety Regulations - EINHELL TC-CH 1000 Instructions D'origine

Danger!
When using the equipment, a few safety pre-
cautions must be observed to avoid injuries and
damage. Please read the complete operating
instructions and safety regulations with due care.
Keep this manual in a safe place, so that the in-
formation is available at all times. If you give the
equipment to any other person, hand over these
operating instructions and safety regulations as
well. We cannot accept any liability for damage
or accidents which arise due to a failure to follow
these instructions and the safety instructions.

1. Safety regulations

Danger!
Read all safety regulations and instructions.
Any errors made in following the safety regula-
tions and instructions may result in an electric
shock, fi re and/or serious injury.
Keep all safety regulations and instructions
in a safe place for future use.
1. The rated load limit must not be exceeded, as
overload can damage the chain hoist or redu-
ce the lifting capacity in the future.
2. Do not use electrical appliances to operate
the chain hoist. The chain hoist is designed
for manual use only.
3. Do not try to repair the load chain. If it is
damaged, the load chain should only be re-
placed by an expert. The load chain must be
replaced with a new one of the same welded
and hardened steel, in the same size and
strength/thickness.
4. The load chain should be greased before use.
5. The brake surfaces must not be greased. The
brake must be kept dry
6. Make sure that the load chain has no knots. If
there are knots in the load chain, these must
be removed before use.
7. Make sure the load chain is hung on the chain
pulley before each use.
8. When pulling the hand chain, stand in the
same position and angle as the drive wheel.
Do not pull at an oblique angle. A secure pos-
ture is necessary.
9. Do not lift the load so that it is above any
persons. Do not allow any persons to walk
underneath the load. If you wish to lift a load,
please warn anyone in the surrounding area.
10. Do not lift any persons with the chain hoist.
11. The load must be held fi rmly in the hook. Try

not to lift the load with the point of the load
hook.
12. Pull the hand chain evenly, to avoid thrusts or
entanglements.
13. If the chain is barred or cannot be pulled
further, please stop. Examine and resolve the
problem. Do not attempt to use force on the
chain hoist. Do not leave the load hanging in
the air.
14. Please do not lower the load further than the
usable length of the chain. If the chain bet-
ween the chain wheel and the chain pulley is
pulled too taught, this can cause damage.
15. Do not allow the load to come into contact
with the chain hoist, otherwise free rotation
will be blocked, which could cause damage,
knots in the chain or barred wheels.
16. Regular checks and maintenance should be
carried out. All damaged or faulty parts must
be exchanged by an expert.
17. The chain hoist functioning in both "with load"
as well as "without load" modes must be tho-
roughly and adequately checked.
18. Make sure the load weight is smaller than the
stated weight of the chain hoist. If in doubt, do
not use the chain hoist.
19. Never overload the chain hoist.
20. Safety procedures, examinations and grea-
sing should be carried out before and during
operation. The chain hoist should only be
used if it is in proper working order.
21. Always make sure the chain is vertical and
straight, and there are no knots.
22. Never pull the hand chain and the load chain
at an oblique angle.
23. Do not use the chain block in an explosive
environment or damp rooms.
24. Examine the load chain (1), hand chain (2),
fastening hook (3), load hook (4), load pin (5),
drive wheel (6), and latch lock (7) for defects,
especially after longer periods of standstill.
25. Adjust the hand chain (2) so that the point
of chain reversal of the hand chain (2) is at a
height of between 500 and 1000 mm above
the ground.
26. Pay attention to any defects which may have
occurred during use. If there are noticeable
problems, immediately stop the chain block
from operating.
27. The temperature of the surrounding atmos-
phere must be between -10°C and +50°C in
order to operate.
