2 Safety
WARNING
A failure to observe the following safety instructions can have
serious consequences:
Danger to persons due to mechanical or chemical influences or failure of
important lifting accessory functions!
–Please read the safety and danger information in this section thoroughly
before putting the lifting pin into operation.
–In addition to the instructions in these original operating instructions,
observe the generally applicable safety and accident prevention
regulations.
–In addition to the instructions in these original operating instructions,
observe the existing national occupational, operating and safety
regulations. Also comply with existing internal factory regulations.
2.1 Intended use
The operational safety of the lifting pin is only guaranteed if they are used as intended.
The lifting pins are intended exclusively as lifting/hoisting accessory for lifting and holding
individual loads. The lifting pins are not suitable for rotating the load. Damaged lifting pins
can endanger lives. Before each use, check the lifting pin for visible defects (e.g.
deformations, breaks, cracks, damage, missing balls, corrosion, function of the release).
When inserting a lifting pin, the rotation of the load must be prevented. Contamination
(e.g. grinding sludge, oil and emission deposits, dust, etc.) can impair the function of the
lifting pin. Damaged lifting pins must be immediately withdrawn from further use. To
release the balls, press in the press button (A). By releasing the press button (A) the balls
are locked again.
Attention: The press button (A) is locked when it is sprung back to its original position by
the spring force. The press button must not be actuated under load! Before operation, the
lifting pins must be checked for accidental or unintentional actuation of the press button to
release the lifting pin. Any accidental or unintentional release of the press button during
operation of the lifting pin must be ruled out by the operator / user.

2 Safety
2.1 Intended use
14
The intended standard method of use of the lifting pin is operation by one person, and
they may only be operated by instructed specialist personnel. The lifting pin may only be
used within the scope of its technical data. The specified maximum technological data
must not be exceeded. The load values F1, F2 and F3 apply to lifting in a steel hole. The
field of application of the lifting pin is the area of industry. The lifting pin are not intended
for different modes of operation, as this is a manual tool. Lifting pins are not intended for
any other use than the use listed here; other uses would be considered improper use. In
particular, it is prohibited
–to subsequently colour-code the lifting pins (especially in red), to avoid any mistaking
of them with high-strength anchor points,
–to exceed the maximum load of the lifting pins (see "3.3 Technical data"),
–to use the lifting pins after exceeding the maximum permissible load cycles (see "3.3
Technical data"). After exceeding the maximum permissible load cycles (see "3.3
Technical data"), the lifting pins must be permanently taken out of operation,
–to use the lifting pins as protective device or safety function,
–to use the lifting pins as a traction element,
–not to produce the installation sketch according to the specifications of the company
Erwin Halder KG,
–to use defective or unsuitable accessories,
–to use the lifting pins if the functional components are deactivated, manipulated or
defective,
–to use the lifting pins while untrained persons are in the danger zone,
–to use the lifting pins if they are not ready for operation or have been modified,
–to use the lifting pins without instruction.
–to use the lifting pins only inserted, without using locking,
–to use the lifting pins for constantly rotating loads,
–to use the lifting pins for lifting, holding or carrying persons,
–to actuate the locking press button under load,
–to place objects on the lifting pin. Remove all objects that are on the lifting pin.

2 Safety
2.1 Intended use
15
Proper use also includes
–the observance of all notices in the original operating instructions and the third-party
documentation,
–noting that in case of an overhead or horizontal use, the load must be secured against
falling down before opening the lifting pins,
–compliance with the inspection and servicing intervals,
–the use of operating and auxiliary materials in accordance with applicable safety
regulations,
–compliance with the operating conditions,
–inspecting the lifting pins for visible defects or damage before each use.
The technical specifications given in the technical data must be observed without
exception.
Only use the lifting pins for their intended purpose, otherwise safe operation is not
guaranteed.
For all personal injury and damage to property resulting from improper use, the
operator of the lifting pins and not the manufacturer is responsible!
Regarding the minimum breaking load, the specified load capacities of the lifting pins are
per lifting pin. They must not be added together for multi-strand lifting accessories. For
such use cases, the corresponding rules must be observed. The load values F1 / F2 / F3
apply to lifting in a steel hole.
For alternating use on different objects to be transported, such as large tools, lifting pins
must be used with the next largest bore diameter. When using multi-strand slings, the
corresponding rules must be observed.
The load capacity specifications only apply if
–the forces introduced can be absorbed by the base material without any deformations
affecting safety.
The load capacity applies up to max. 90° angle of inclination.

2 Safety
2.1 Intended use
16
2.1.1 Structural changes to the lifting pins
Design and manufacturer's acceptance are based on the Product Safety Act (ProdSG).
No changes, additions or conversions may be made to the lifting pin without the prior
written consent of Erwin Halder KG.
In case of non-compliance, the lifting pins lose their EC conformity. With this, the
manufacturer of the lifting pins is outside of the warranty.
Immediately replace components that are not in problem-free condition.
Only use original spare parts / wear parts / accessories. These parts are specially
designed for the lifting pins. For parts purchased from third parties it cannot be
guaranteed that they have been designed and manufactured to meet the requirements on
stress and safety.
Parts and optional equipment not supplied by Erwin Halder KG are not approved for use
on the lifting pins.
2.1.2 Foreseeable misuse
Any use of the lifting pin beyond the intended use, and/or other use, can lead to serious
injuries.
–Do not use the lifting pins if maintenance or inspection are lacking.
–Never use the lifting pins without locking.
–Do not use the lifting pins with constantly rotating loads.
–Do not use the lifting pins to lift, hold or carry people.
–Do not use unauthorised location holes.
–Avoid jerky loads.
–Overloading or misuse can lead to failure of the lifting equipment. The load can fall
down. Only use the lifting pins with the approved loads.
–Do not operate the press button under load.
