Safety Summary

WARNING

Do not use this hoist or attached equipment for lifting, supporting, or transporting people or supporting loads over people.

The supporting structures and load-attaching devices used in conjunction with this hoist must provide and adequate safety factor to handle the rated load, plus the weight of the hoist and attached equipment. This is the customer's responsibility. If in doubt, consult a qualified structural engineer.

The National Safety Council, Accident Prevention Manual for Industrial Operations, Eighth Edition and other recognized safety sources make a common point.

Employees who work near cranes or assist in hooking on or arranging a load should be instructed to keep out from under the load. From a safety standpoint, one factor is paramount : conduct all lifting operations in such a manner that if there were an equipment failure, no personnel would be injured. This means keep out from under a raised load and keep out of the line of force of any load.

To our interpretation, INGERSOLL-RAND Material Handling hoists are manufactured in accordance with the latest standards.

However, contrary to common belief, as we understand it, generally places the burden of compliance with the user, not the manufacturer. Many requirements are not concerned or connected with the manufactured product but are, rather, connected with the final installation. It is the owner's responsibility and user's responsibility to determine the suitability of a product for any particular use. Check all applicable industry, trade association, federal, state and local regulations. Read all operating instructions and warnings before operation.

Rigging : It is the responsibility of the operator to exercise caution, use common sense and be familiar with proper rigging techniques.

NOTICE

INGERSOLL-RAND Replacement Parts are specifically designed to ensure optimum performance of your equipment. Use of other than genuine INGERSOLL-RAND Material Handling parts may adversely affect safe operation and will invalidate the warranty.
