SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
ALWAYS:

before placing into storage.
• Check that the load hook will reach its lowest point without running the chain fully out.
• Ensure that the suspension point is sufficient in strength to take the weight of the Chain
Block and its load.
• Check the travel path is clear and that you have a clear view so as to avoid accidental
hook engagement or collision.
• Wear industrial gloves when operating the Chain Block.
NEVER:
• Lift a load exceeding the rated capacity on the Chain Block.
• Use the Chain Block when the chain is kinked.
• Stand beneath a raised load.
• Use the Chain Block if it requires more than ordinary effort to operate it.
• Throw, drop or drag the Chain Block.
• Use undue effort to force the block to operate.
• Allow oil or grease to come into contact with the brake.
• Lift loads at an angle or use for towing. Only lift loads vertically.
• Never replace the load chain with a non-approved spare.
DECLARATION of CONFORMITY
We declare that this product conforms to the following Directive:
98/37/EC
OPERATION
Check slinging arrangement is safely rigged and that the chains are not twisted.
Attach the load hook directly to the load or sling, ensuring it is directly above the centre of
gravity of the load.
Ensuring that no obstacle prevents a clean lift, gently raise and lower the load by pulling
the hand chain through the block in the desired direction.
Lift the load a few centimetres from the ground and check stability before commencing
full lift.
When lowering a load, be aware that when the hand chain is released, the load will not
stop immediately, but may continue for a few more millimetres as the brake takes effect.
After operation clean the Chain Block and lubricate chain if required, keep it in a dry place
to protect from rust and corrosion.
MAINTENANCE
EVERY SIX MONTHS:
• Fully unwind the lifting chain and check its general condition for corrosion, wear and
signs of stretching or fracture.
• Check the security and condition of the suspension point.
• Check the condition of hooks and the tightness of all bolts and screws.
NOTE:
When in constant use, the hoist should be inspected more frequently, at least monthly.
If in doubt about the use or maintenance of this equipment, consult you local authorised
CLARKE dealer.
