Yale Series Y80 manual Foreword, Index

FOREWORD

This manual contains important information to help you install, operate, maintain and service your new YALE electric hoist. We recommend that you study its contents thoroughly before putting the hoist into use. Read ANSI B30.16 safety code for hoists. Then, thru proper installation, application of correct operating procedures and by practicing the recommended maintenance suggestions you can expect maximum lifting service from the hoist.

It will likely be a long time before parts information found in Section IX is needed; therefore, after the hoist is installed and you have completely familiarized yourself with operation and preventive maintenance procedures, we suggest that this book be carefully filed for future reference.

When ordering replacement parts from this book, it will be necessary that you include, with your order, the Hoist Serial Number, Model Number and Catalog Number which is found on the nameplate attached to the hoist electrical cover. For your convenience, a space has been

provided on the front cover of this Manual for entering this information. We recommend that you fill it out immediately so it is readily at hand when needed.

The contents of this manual are of necessity, general in nature and may cover features not incorporated on your hoist; therefore, the user must exercise care in applying instructions given in this manual. If specific information not in this manual is required, contact the factory at Muskegon, Michigan 49443.

THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS MANUAL IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY AND YALE•LIFT-TECH DOES

NOT WARRANT OR OTHERWISE GUARANTEE (IMPLIEDLY OR EXPRESSLY) ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE COMPONENTS THAT YALE•LIFT-TECH MANUFACTURES AND ASSUMES NO LEGAL

RESPONSIBILITY (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES) FOR INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS MANUAL.
