Paint damage should be touched up in order to
avoid corrosion. All joints and sliding surfaces
should be slightly oiled. In the case of heavy
contamination, the unit must be cleaned.

INSPECTIONS BEFORE STARTING

WORK
- Ensure that the surface of the load, in the
location where the load lifting attachment is
applied, is free from grease, paint, contami-
nation and scale and is not coated, so that
the teeth can make good contact with the
surface of the load.
- Check the fi xed jaw and the clamping jaw
(Fig. 6) for wear and defects. Both jaws must
have clean profi les.
- Check the complete load lifting attachment
for damage, cracks or deformations.
- The load lifting attachment must open and
close easily and freely.
- Check the spring (Fig. 6). When the lever is
in the "Close" position, the spring must have
a noticeable spring pressure force when the
suspension eye is depressed.
USAGE OF THE LOAD LIFTING
ATTACHMENT
TBL 0,5 (500 kg)
Push the load lifting attachment onto the load
until the load has fully entered the mouth of
the clamp. The clamping jaw is fi rmly pressed
against the load by spring pressure force.
This ensures that the applied load lifting at-
tachment remains clamped to the load as a
result of the spring pressure force also without
any pulling force. The load can now be lifted
and transported.
At the end of the transport operation, the
suspension (e. g. hook, shackle, etc.) must
be lowered until the load lifting attachment is
completely load-free and/or the suspension
eye can be moved freely. The load lifting
attachment can be removed from the load.
From TBL 1,0 (1.000 kg)
In the "OPEN" position of the lever, the clamp-
ing jaw is locked in the open position. In this
position, push the load lifting attachment onto
the load until the load has fully entered the
mouth of the clamp. By switching the lever
to the "CLOSE" position, the clamping jaw is
released. The clamping jaw is fi rmly pressed
against the load by spring pressure force. This
ensures that the applied load lifting attach-
ment remains clamped to the load precisely
as a result of the spring pressure force also
without any pulling force. The load can now
be lifted and transported (Fig. 5). At the end
of the transport operation, the suspension
(e. g. hook, shackle, etc.) must be lowered
until the load lifting attachment is completely
load-free and/or the suspension eye can be
moved freely. The lever can now be switched to
the "OPEN" position again and the load lifting
attachment can be removed from the load.
Note
If the lever cannot be switched over, a light tap
on the suspension eye with a hammer should
release the load lifting attachment.

INSPECTION / MAINTENANCE

According to national and international acci-
dent prevention and safety regulations hoisting
equipment must be inspected:
• in accordance with the risk assessment of
the operating company,
• prior to initial operation,
• before the unit is put into service again
following a shut down,
• after substantial changes,
• however, at least once per year, by a
competent person.
ATTENTION: Actual operating conditions
(e.g. operation in galvanizing facilities) can
dictate shorter inspection intervals.
Repair work may only be carried out by a spe-
cialist workshop that uses original Yale spare
parts. The inspection (mainly consisting of a
visual inspection and a function check) must
determine that all safety devices are complete
and fully operational and cover the condition
of the unit, suspension, equipment and sup-
porting structure with regard to damage, wear,
corrosion or any other alterations.
Initial operation and recurring inspections
must be documented (e.g. in the CMCO works
certifi cate of compliance).
If required by the Industrial Employers' Mutual
Insurance Association, the results of inspec-
tions and appropriate repairs must be verifi ed.
Paint damage should be touched up in order to
avoid corrosion. All joints and sliding surfaces
should be slightly oiled. In the case of heavy
contamination, the unit must be cleaned.
Repairs may only be carried out by
specialist workshops that use original
TIGRIP spare parts.
After repairs have been carried out and
after extended periods of non-use, the hoist
must be inspected again before it is put into
service again.
The inspections have to be initiated by
the operating company.
TRANSPORT, STORAGE, TAKE OUT OF
SERVICE AND DISPOSAL
Observe the following for transporting
the unit:
• Do not drop or throw the unit, always deposit
it carefully.
• Use suitable transport means. These
depend on the local conditions.
Observe the following for storing or tem-
porarily taking the unit out of service:
• Store the unit at a clean and dry place where
there is no frost.
• Protect the unit against contamination,
humidity and damage by means of a
suitable cover.
• If the unit is to be used again after it has
been taken out of service, it must fi rst be
inspected again by a competent person.
Disposal:
After taking the unit out of service, recycle
or dispose of the parts of the unit and, if
applicable, the operating material (oil, grease,
etc.) in accordance with the legal regulations.
