These areas of damage, precisely as wear, are not covered by the warranty.
In most cases however the areas of damage are much less extensive. In doubtful cases an author-
ised repairer should assess the clamp.

How to operate the clamp
IPBC lifting clamps are suitable for the horizontal lifting and transport of one or more steel plates,
beams and structures as well as tilting beams from position H to position I.
See illustrations 3 - 11 for part reference.
Lifting
1. Open the clamp by pulling up the grip on the camsegment (B) (3).
2. Place the clamp securely on the material to be lifted, so that the jaw of the clamp rests against
the plate or flange (E). Keep base against the load (4).
3. Close the clamp by letting go the grip. The clamp will remain on the material in pretensioned
position, allowing lifting to commence (5).
4. As soon as the load is at its destination let the crane hook descend until the clamp is fully free
of load, meaning that the lifting chain is no longer taut.
5. The clamp can now be removed from the load by pulling up the camsegment (B) again. The
clamp may now be used again immediately (6).
Tilting
1. Open the clamp by pulling up the grip on the camsegment (B) (7).
2. Place the clamp securely on the material to be lifted, so that the jaw of the clamp rests against
the plate or flange (E). Keep base against the load (8).
3. Close the clamp by letting go the grip. The clamp will remain on the material in pretensioned
position, allowing lifting to commence (9).
4. Pull gently the chain taut. By continuing the lifting, the clamp will tilt over to point R. At a certain
moment the beam will tip to the I-position (10).
5. As soon as the load is at its destination let the crane hook descend until the clamp is fully free
of load, meaning that the lifting chain is no longer taut.
6. The clamp can now be removed from the load by pulling up the camsegment (B) again. The
clamp may now be used again immediately (11).
