OVERHEAD RIGGING

• Important: The installation must be

carried out by qualified service personal
only. Improper installation can result in
serious injuries and/or damage to
property. Overhead rigging requires
extensive experience! Working load limits
should be respected, certified installation
materials should be used, the installed
device should be inspected regularly for
safety.

• Make sure the area below the installation

place is free from unwanted persons during
rigging, de-rigging and servicing.

• Locate the fixture in a well ventilated spot, far

away from any flammable materials and/or
liquids. The fixture must be fixed at least
50cm from surrounding walls.

• The device should be installed out of reach of

people and outside areas where persons
may walk by or be seated.

• Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10times the device’s

weight.

• Always use a certified safety cable (number 3 on the picture) that can hold 12 times the weight of the

device when installing the unit. This secondary safety attachment should be installed in a way that no part
of the installation can drop more than 20cm if the main attachment fails.

• The device should be well fixed; a free-swinging mounting is dangerous and may not be considered!

• Don’t cover any ventilation openings as this may result in overheating.

• The operator has to make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by

an expert before using them for the first time. The installations should be inspected every year by a skilled
person to be sure that safety is still optimal.
