18890 ENGLISH
Never operate a damaged or malfunctioning
hoist. If hoist appears damaged or is
malfunctioning, disconnect power source and
disconnect load.
WARNING
Any supporting structure the hoist will be
mounted to must be designed to withstand
any load or forces that the load and hoist may
apply to the structure.
WARNING
Do not modify the plug in any way or any
outlet to fit the plug. Use only 3-prong
grounding outlets and 3-wire extension cords
with 3-prong grounding plugs.
WARNING
When re-spooling the cable, ensure that the
cable spools in the over-wind position with the
cable entering the drum from the top, not the
bottom.
To re-spool correctly, and while wearing
gloves, keep a slight load on the cable while
pushing the remote button to draw in the
cable. Do not let your hands get within 12 in.
(30.5 cm) of the hoist while re-spooling. Turn
off the hoist and repeat the procedure until
a few inches of cable are left before the stop
bracket. Keep hands clear of the hoist, cable
and slight load which hoist is under power.
WARNING
Duration of hoisting pulls should be kept as
short as possible.
If the motor becomes uncomfortably hot to the
touch, stop hoisting immediately and let it cool
down for a few minutes. Do not pull for more
than one minute at or near the rated load.
CAUTION
If the motor stalls, do not maintain power to
the hoist.
Electric hoists are designed and made for
intermittent use and should not be used in
constant duty applications.
CAUTION
Do not use damaged or broken equipment.
Before each use inspect the hoist and
equipment for any damage to the following:
– Hoist
– Wire cable
– Lift hooks/Pulley hooks
– Power cord or plug prongs
If any of the above items or any other items
appear to be damaged or broken then replace
or fix before use.
DANGER
SAFETY RULES
Do not lift any loads over people, animals,
or property that cannot be damaged. Falling
loads may result in property damage, injury
or death.
DANGER
This hoist is for operation with 120V power
sources only. 240V power sources will not
power the hoist and may even damage the
hoist. Make sure the power source for the
hoist is a 120V 3-pronged grounded outlet
only.
