Coupler Beam (CBeam) Assemblies: Prior to each use, inspect the CBeam assemblies for any cracks, burrs, deformations, corrosion or missing or damaged components that could reduce the CBeam assembly strength. Replace any CBeam assemblies that are damaged or missing hardware. Always double check that each CBeam assembly is securely locked to the spreader bar(s) on the grids below. Never exceed the limitations or maximum recommended load for the CBeam assemblies.
Groundstack Assemblies: Prior to each use, inspect each groundstack assembly for any cracks, burrs, deformations, corrosion or missing or damaged components that could reduce the groundstack assembly strength. Replace any groundstack assembles that are damaged or missing hardware. Always double check that each
Chain Hoists: Prior to each use, inspect the chain hoist and associated hardware (including motor, if applicable) for any cracks, deformation. Broken welds, corrosion, missing or damaged components that could reduce the hoist strength. Replace any damaged chain hoists. Never exceed the limitations or maximum recommended load specified by the hoist manufacturer. Always follow manufacturers’ recommendations for operation, inspection, and certification. Always raise and lower the load slowly and evenly, avoiding any rapid changes in speed or shifting loads that could result in a sudden jolt to the suspended system.
Building, Tower or Scaffold Supports: Prior to each use, the strength and
Miscellaneous Mechanical Components: Prior to each use, inspect all mechanical components (chain, wire ropes, slings, shackles, hooks, fittings, ratchet straps, etc.) for any cracks, deformation, broken welds, slipping crimps, fraying, abrasion, knots, corrosion, chemical damage, loose screws, missing or damaged components that could reduce the maximum strength specified by the component manufacturer. Replace any damaged mechanical components. Never exceed the limitations or maximum recommended load for the mechanical components.
