hygroscopic and will attract atmospheric moisture and harden up.

■ Always inspect pins, and latches whenever attaching or detaching Spreader, and before traveling.

■ Inspect the unit periodically for defects. Parts that are broken, missing, or worn out must be

replaced immediately. The unit, or any part of it should not be altered without prior written
