INTRODUCTION
Products of CMCO Industrial Products GmbH
have been built in accordance with the state-
of-the-art and generally accepted engineering
standards. Nonetheless, incorrect handling
when using the products may cause dangers
to life and limb of the user or third parties
and/or damage to the hoist or other property.
The operating company is responsible for
the proper and professional instruction of
the operating personnel. For this purpose, all
operators must read these operating instruc-
tions carefully prior to the initial operation.
These operating instructions are intended to
acquaint the user with the product and enable
him to use it to the full extent of its intended
capabilities. The operating instructions contain
important information on how to operate the
product in a safe, correct and economic way.
Acting in accordance with these instructions
helps to avoid dangers, reduce repair costs
and downtimes and to increase the reliability
and lifetime of the product. The operating
instructions must always be available at the
place where the product is operated. Apart
from the operating instructions and the ac-
cident prevention act valid for the respective
country and area where the product is used,
the commonly accepted regulations for safe
and professional work must also be adhered
to. The personnel responsible for operation,
maintenance or repair of the product must
read, understand and follow these operating
instructions.
The indicated protective measures will only
provide the necessary safety, if the product
is operated correctly and installed and/or
maintained according to the instructions. The
operating company is committed to ensure
safe and trouble-free operation of the product.
CORRECT OPERATION
- The load lifting attachment is used for
transporting and stacking of horizontal gird-
ers with upright web as well as for handling
sheet metal plates and profi le material. The
jaw capacity must be observed (Tab. 1).
- Any diff erent or exceeding use is con-
sidered incorrect. Columbus McKinnon
Industrial Products GmbH will not accept
any liability for damage resulting from
such use. The risk is borne by the user
or operating company alone.
- The load lifting attachment is suitable for all
loads of steel that can be fully entered into
the mouth of the clamp and have a surface
hardness of up to max. HRC 30.
EN
- The load capacity indicated on the unit is the
maximum working load limit (WLL) that may
be attached.
- The min. load is indicated on the side of
the unit. It must always be complied with,
as otherwise the clamping force required for
safe transport will not be reached.
- Do not allow personnel to stay or pass under
a suspended load.
- A lifted or clamped load must not be left
unattended or remain lifted or clamped for
a longer period of time.
- The operator may start moving the load only
after it has been attached correctly and all
persons are clear of the danger zone.
- When suspending the load lifting attach-
ment, the operator must ensure that neither
the load lifting attachment, the suspension
(e.g. hook, shackle, etc.) nor the load pose
a danger to himself or other personnel.
- Prior to operation of the load lifting attach-
ment in special atmospheres (high humidity,
salty, caustic, alkaline) or handling hazard-
ous goods (e.g. molten compounds, radioac-
tive materials) consult the manufacturer for
advice.
- The load lifting attachment may be used at
ambient temperatures between –40 °C and
+100 °C. Consult the manufacturer in the
case of extreme working conditions.
- If longer girders or profi les are to be trans-
ported, two clamps may be used (Fig. 2)
to prevent load sway (Fig. 1). Select the at-
tachment gear to be used so that the lateral
inclination angle does not exceed 15°. If the
application requires a larger distance of the
clamps, a suitable spreader beam must be
used.
- Two-legged lifting gear is only suitable for
small plates with low weights, for which
sway during transport can be compensated
by hand. When attaching the load lifting
attachment, it must be ensured that the
centre of gravity of the load is in the middle
between the load lifting attachments so that
no inclined position is caused. The load lift-
ing attachment must be arranged on the load
in such a way that the inclination angle of
the load lifting attachment does not exceed
30° in the direction of the mouth opening
and 45° in the opposite direction (Fig. 3).
- Always transport the load slowly, carefully
and close to the ground.
- Make sure that when depositing the load, the
crane hook does not press against the load
lifting attachment. The weight of the crane
hook could lead to opening of the load lifting
attachment.
- Only use crane hooks with a safety latch.
- The suspension eye of the load lifting attach-
