apparecchiature collegate per sollevare, sostenere o
trasportare persone o per sollevare o sostenere carichi

NOTICE
• Lifting equipment is subject to different regulations in
each country. These regulations may not be specified in
this manual.
The National Safety Council, Accident Prevention Manual for
Industrial Operations, Eighth Edition and other recognized safety
sources make a common point: Employees who work near
suspended loads or assist in hooking on or arranging a load
should be instructed to keep out from under the load. From a
safety standpoint, one factor is paramount: conduct all lifting
operations in such a manner that if there were an equipment
failure, no personnel would be injured. This means keep out from
under a raised load and keep out of the line of force of any load.
The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 generally places
the burden of compliance with the owner/employer, not the
manufacturer. Many OSHA requirements are not concerned or
connected with the manufactured product but are, rather,

• Balancers with capacities of 150 lbs or (68 kg) greater are
equipped with the Z-Brake, a centrifugal brake that is
designed to stop the uncontrolled upward travel of the
wire rope in the event of a sudden release or loss of load,
and limit the excessive upward acceleration of the empty
hook for the safety of the operators. The brake must not
be used as a travel limiting stop or up stop. Failure to
follow these instructions will result in damage to the brake
and the balancer. Continuous use of the Z-Brake will cause
internal damage to the balancer and could result in
damaging the balancer beyond repair.
Correct installation and operation of the balancer depends on
you reading all instructions before starting work on the balancer.
• Clean, dry air must be used at all times when operating
balancers.
