Inspecting the lift chains
Impermissible wear and external damage:
According to official regulations, a chain is worn when it has lengthened by 3% in the
area where it runs over the deflection pulley. We recommend replacing the chain at
2% for safety reasons.
The chain should be replace immediately in the event of any external damage,
because such damage eventually causes permanent breaks.
IMPORTANT If the industrial truck is equipped with two lift chains, both chains must always
be replaced. This is the only way to ensure that the load is distributed evenly
on both chains. When chains are replaced, the connection bolts between the
chain anchor and the chain must also be replaced. Use only new original
parts.
