HOIST DESCRIPTION

The Lever chain hoist is a portable manuall

y operated piece of equipment. It is, therefore,

particularly suitable for all temporary applications, which take place indoors or outdoors and

where there is no electricity network, such as: warehouses, construction sites, farms, mines,

quarries, ports an

d shipyards.

The machine must be attached to a support structure with sufficient strength such as: fixed

or movable arms of other lifting devices or support structures.

The machine can be used outdoors if it is protected from the weather and especially fr

om the

effects of the wind.

The operating temperature is within the range of

-

20 / +50 °C.

The environment must also be sufficiently illuminated so as to ensure operation in maximum

safety (at least 200 lux is recommended).

Other types of use, or the ext

ension of use beyond that envisaged, does not

correspond to the designation attributed by the manufacturer, and therefore the

latter cannot accept any responsibility for any damage resulting therefrom.
