ORRECT PERATION
Any different or exceeding use is considered incorrect. Columbus McKinnon Industrial
Products GmbH will not accept any liability for damage resulting from such use. The risk is
borne by the user/operating company alone.
The load lifting attachment is used for non-marring and safe horizontal transport of stacking
boxes made of steel or plastic. The crate grab with tipping device (optional) makes it also
possible to empty stacking boxes in mid-air; a stop prevents the crate from flipping completely
over while emptying.
Attention: When operating the tipping device make sure that the contents do not fall out
of the box.
The crate grab has been designed for a specific crate type and must not be used for any other
crate types (see grab widths data on the identity plate).
The load capacity indicated on the unit is the maximum working load limit (WLL) that may be
attached.
When attaching the grab it is essential to ensure that the clamping jaws reach under the rim of
the stacking box over their entire length by min. 8 mm and that the load centre of gravity is in
the middle in order to avoid any inclination.
