while gently holding it. T

he load chain will be tightened.

2. Making use of the one touch free spooling

●

Set the selector lever to "N" position and pull the load chain to unloaded side

WARNING

1) Set the selector lever to

“N” position. 2) Turn the feed handle half-

turn

counterclockwise. Then, free

spooling will be available

automatically.

3) You can adjust the length of

load chain by pulling it. 4) Set the selector lever to

“UP” position.

5) Hold down the feed handle

softly

and manipulate the operation

handle to pull the bottom hook.

first slowly. Then, pull the load chain to loaded side slowly. Free spooling will

be available automatically.

● Notice on adjusting

the load chain length:

a) Free spooling manipulation will be impossible when the unit is used in such

a manner as the load chain is given impact.

b) Free spooling manipulation will be also impossible when the brake is

actuated.

c) When the unit is in such states as above paras.a) and b), set the selector

lever to the “DOWN” position and manipulate the operation handle and the

free spooling after the brake is released.

2. Making use of the feed handle

To tighten the load chain which is a little loose, set the selector lever to the

“UP” position to turn the feed handle clockwise. By this manipulation, the load

chain will be quickly tensed.

CAUTION ON CO-HOISTING BY MORE THAN

2 SETS OF CHAIN LEVER HOISTS

● Co-hoisting by more than 2 sets of chain lever hoists may be very risky

depending on installing and using them.

※

Pay attention to balancing of a load as stated below;

● When a combination of 2 lever hoists with different capacities is used, make

sure that the hoist with a smaller capacity is not severely loaded.

● When a load is lifted parallel by a number of chain lever hoists, make

sure that the load is not unevenly carried by them.

● When a number of chain lever hoists are used in a lengthwise row, select

hoists with an equal rated load.

※

A combination of hoists with different capacities will be very risky when a hoist

with bigger capacity is operated.

● Use wire ropes, clips, shackles, fitting pieces etc. which are sufficiently strong

for slinging the top and bottom hooks of the chain lever hoist.

● When it is used as an additional hoist for a big crane, select a chain lever hoist

with a bigger capacity than the actual load. Furthermore, do not operate the

crane in a manner of so-called earth-lifting. Otherwise, the chain lever hoist

will be damaged.

● When a number of chain lever hoists are used or one is used in combination

with other machines, do not overload the chain lever hoist. Use the chain lever

hoist in a well balanced condition, making sure the safety.

CAUTION

Elephant Lifting Products | http://www.elephantlifting.com

INSTALLATION

1. Installation of the hoist unit

● The support structure on which the hoist unit is installed is to bear loads

more than 4 times the rated load.

※

It is very dangerous to use a support of which strength is not sufficient,

as it may be damaged due to the load. In case that the chain lever hoist is

used as an auxiliary device for a crane, its safety factor should be 5.

Make sure when setting the unit that a support can surely bear the load and set the

unit such that the top and bottom hooks is in line with each other.

PROPER HANDLING AND CAUTIONS

● Inspect all the tools to be used on the day before use. Wrong slinging

may cause quite dangerous situations.

(1) Do not allow such slinging ways as shown below, which are very

dangerous.

WARNING

Elephant Lifting Products | http://www.elephantlifting.com

(2) Do not wind the load chain around the load.

※

The strength of load chain and bottom hook

may be reduced, causing danger.

Do not hook the load chain to the hooks or

the like of vehicles; the chain strength may

be reduced to 1/3 to 1/5.

(3) Before applying load in winding-up operation, remove the tension of load

chain.

2. Lifting and lowering

To lift, set the selector lever to the UP position, and move the operation handle

forward and backward so that the bottom hook will be lifted.

Checking the brake

In no-load state the winding-up is possible by turning the feed handle. If the load

increases to such an extent that the feed handle can be hardly turned by hand, set

the selector lever to the DOWN position after winding up by approx. 1/2 turn

of the operation handle, and then turn the handle inversely by approx. 30°.

Check that the brake operates properly. Ascertain that the load does not fall down

even when your hand is released from the handle.

To lower the bottom hook, set the selector lever to the DOWN position, and move

the operation handle forward and backward. If the handle can be hardly operated

at first, jog the handle. After that, the handle operation will be easier.

● If load chain does not move when you lift up and down no load or light load

by operating the handle, please operate it while pulling the load chain

lightly on load side. It is not malfunction.

CAUTION

Elephant Lifting Products | http://www.elephantlifting.com

CAUTIONS DURING OPERATION

1. Dangerous operation

● Never apply a load beyond the rated load to the unit (over-loading).

● Do not perform over-lifting or over-lowering.

● Do not give a shock to the chain lever hoist.

● Do not get on a load to be lifted and do not allow anybody to stay under a load

lifted.

● Do not use a chain lever hoist which is not in order.

● Do not use the chain lever hoist in incorrect manners as shown below, which

are quite dangerous.

1) Never overload.

a) The load can be normally wound up or moved

merely by operating the handle by one hand.

b) Do not attach a pipe or the like to the operation

handle for lengthening it.

c) If excessive force is required to hoist or pull the

load, stop the operation at once. The load may

exceed the rated load, causing overload, or the

unit is over-lifted or over-lowered.

2) Avoid excessive lifting and lowering.

Winding-up the bottom hook beyond the

limit is referred to as “over-lifting” and

winding-down beyond the limit is “over-

lowering”. These operations may damage

the chain lever hoist. Do not attempt such

operation in any circumstances.

WARNING

Elephant Lifting Products | http://www.elephantlifting.com

3) Avoid shocks.

Do not allow the chain lever hoist to absorb any

shock caused by dropping a load even when drop

height is insignificant. If the shock is intensive, it may

cause a serious danger even when the load is light.

4) Do not mount or stand under any lifted load.

5) The grip made from rubber may be pulled out.

The rubber may be deteriorated depending on conditions

used and thus be easily pulled out of the handle.

Never suspend yourself from the handle, giving your full

weight to the unit.

6) Others

●

In no cases, use a defective chain lever hoist.

●

Always handle the chain lever hoist with care.

Never throw it down from any height.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

DAILY INSPECTION

●

For daily operation, be sure to carry out the following checks prior to operation.

●

When any abnormality is found, stop operating the chain lever hoist and take

proper counter-measures in accordance with “the measures when

abnormalities are found”.

●

When a trouble cannot be solved, contact dealers of our products.

※

Do not make continuous running under abnormal conditions, as it is very

dangerous and may lead to a severe accident.
