Prior to installing hoist, carefully inspect it for possible shipping
damage. Hoists are supplied fully lubricated from the factory.
Ensure load chain is lubricated prior to hoist operation.
CAUTION
• Owners and users are advised to examine specific, local or
other regulations, including American National Standards
Institute and/or OSHA Regulations, which may apply to a
particular type of use of this product, before installing or
putting hoist to use.
The SLB lever chain hoist can be used in any position provided it
is rigged to pull in a straight line from top hook to bottom hook.
The hoist body must be positioned so that it does not contact the
load or support members when in use. Ensure hand lever
movement is unrestricted.
When operating in limited areas suitable lifting attachments or
slings must be used to prevent hoist body and hand lever from
being obstructed.
CAUTION
• Ensure hoist top and bottom hooks are properly rigged and
hook latches are engaged, prior to use.
Initial Operating Checks
Operate hoist with a test load (10% of rated capacity) by raising
and lowering this load several times. Verify brake operation by
lowering same load to check load does not slip when lowering
stops.
NOTICE
• Each time a load is lifted, operation of load brake should be
checked by raising load slightly and stopping to ensure brake
will hold load before continuing to lift load.
