Operating Guidelines
The TELE-PRO 500 by OZ Lifting Products LLC® has a maximum operating load rating of 500 lbs.
The TELE-PRO 1200 by OZ Lifting Products LLC® has a maximum operating load rating of 1200 lbs.
The TELE-PRO 2500 by OZ Lifting Products LLC® has a maximum operating load rating of 2500 lbs.
The TELE-PRO DAVIT CRANE by OZ Lifting Products LLC® boom is capable of being adjusted while
under load. This adjustment may alter the cranes lifting capacity. Double check the load rating of the
crane in every operating position which will be used during the lift to make sure the crane will not
be overloaded during the lift.
The TELE-PRO DAVIT CRANE by OZ Lifting Products LLC® is capable of generating forces that are in
excess of this maximum load rating, but this should not be attempted.
NOTE: It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that the loads being handled are within the
operating limits of the TELE-PRO DAVIT CRANE by OZ Lifting Products LLC® at all times. Shock
loads must be minimized as they can lead to higher forces than the rated capacity of the TELE-PRO
DAVIT CRANE by OZ Lifting Products LLC®.
A load rating table is provided on pg.15 as well as on both sides of the TELE-PRO DAVIT CRANE by
OZ Lifting Products LLC® boom itself. These load ratings represent the load rating of the boom in the
horizontal position as well as the 45-degree angle position. These load rating tables are calculated
based on both the extension and angle of the crane's boom as well as the amount of cable spooled
onto the winch drum. The amount of cable spooled onto the winch will change during a lift
(especially long lifts), impacting load capacity.
NOTE: It is the responsibility of the user to determine the maximum amount of cable that will be
spooled onto the winch at any given time during the lift and size the load to be lifted accordingly.
The manual winch that is supplied with the TELE-PRO DAVIT CRANE by OZ Lifting Products
LLC® has been specifically chosen to match the rating of the crane. The quick-disconnect handle
on this winch has also been specifically designed to operate within the load range of the winch.
The effort required to operate the winch at the maximum rated capacity will be significant. This is
an intentional design feature and not a defect. The increased effort required when nearing rated
capacity (at any percentage of drum capacity) is a sign that the load being lifted may be too heavy.
NOTE: Check the weight of the load being lifted and reduce the weight if necessary.
NOTE: Never attempt to adjust the angle of the boom below the horizontal position while under
load. The boom should only be lowered for storage purposes.
This TELE-PRO DAVIT CRANE by OZ Lifting Products LLC® has a main structure made from steel. At
no time should the crane itself emit any abnormal noises during use (cable may make some noise
as it settles on the drum-this is normal). Any abnormal sounds are cause for removal of load and
inspection. There are multiple sources for abnormal noises including, but not limited to:
• If the cable is not spooled neatly, under tension, when load is applied.
• If the crane is severely overloaded.
• If the crane has suffered severe damage from abuse and/or mishandling.
NOTE: This list is not exhaustive and does not cover all possibilities.
