Safety
• Inspect parts for damage and wear before each use. Do not use if damaged!
• Never stand under the suspended load. People within the working area of the lifting equipment
must not be exposed to danger when the load is lifted or moved.
• Do not ride on the load.
• Be careful where you stand in relation to the load when lifting. The load might slip and cause
injury. Keep your back clear.
• Lift vertically, otherwise the load will swing horizontally when clearing the ground.
• Avoid snatch loading. Do not expose the equipment to unnecessary strain, for example sudden
jerks/abrupt movement.
• Never use lifting equipment for dragging goods or load the hook sideways. This could lead to
damage or unexpected movement and create a dangerous situation.
• Always position the load in a way that makes it possible to remove the lifting equipment without
using force.
• Test lift by carefully lifting the load just clear of the ground.
• Check the load security and angles before continuing.
• Handle the load with care. Lower it gently to avoid jerks.
• Do not load the hook sideways.
• Polyester lifting straps and slings are made of synthetic fiber and may rip or tear against sharp
edges. Use only steel hooks or chain with the Bucket Lift.
• Take note of the max load. Never overload.
• Keep a minimum of 30° angle to the ground to keep the Bucket Lift secured to the loader
bucket.
• Always carry the load as low as possible; when lifting, loads should only be raised high enough
to allow free movement.
• When moving, the load should be transported in the lowest position possible and raised only
when the vehicle is stopped.
