INSTRUCTIONS & CAUTIONS

Inspect Before Use

Before using your wire rope pulling hoist, always do a quick check. Look over the wire rope for any signs of wear, kinks, or fraying. Ensure the hooks are in good condition and secure. Check that the hoist mechanism is running smoothly. If anything seems off, don’t operate the hoist. Regular inspections help avoid issues down the line and keep operations safe.

Respect the Weight Limits

Every hoist has a maximum weight it can safely handle. Make sure you’re aware of the hoist’s rated load capacity before you start pulling. Never go over this limit—exceeding the capacity can damage the hoist and create safety hazards. It’s better to stay below the limit than to risk overloading. Always double-check the specs to make sure you’re within safe working limits.

Secure the Hook Properly

Make sure the hoist’s hook is firmly attached to a stable and reliable anchor point. The hoist should be aligned with the load and pulling in a straight line. Avoid attaching the hook to anything unstable—this can cause slippage and might lead to accidents. Proper hook placement helps keep everything in line and ensures smoother, safer operation.

Operate Smoothly and Slowly

When operating the hoist, avoid jerky or quick movements. Gradually engage the hoist to pull the load slowly and steadily. Rushing the process can put too much strain on both the hoist and the load. Take your time to control the speed of the pull, ensuring the process is smooth and safe at every step.
