Law Drive, Box 2300, Faireld, NJ 07007-2300, U.S.A.
WARNING
This symbol points out important safety instructions which
if not followed could endanger the personal safety and/
or property of yourself and others. Read and follow all
instructions in this manual and any provided with the
equipment before attempting to operate your lodestar hoist.
MOVING HAZARDOUS LOADS
The hoists are not recommended for lifting materials that could
cause widespread damage if dropped. The lifting or moving of
materials that could explode or cause chemical or radioactive
contamination requires fail-safe, redundant supporting devices that
are not incorporated into these hoists.

ENGLISH
3P/N 192061515 Rev AA April 2019
HOIST SAFETY IS UP TO YOU...
CHOOSE THE RIGHT HOIST FOR THE JOB...
Choose a hoist with the capacity for the job.
Know the capacities of your hoists and the
weight of your loads.
Then match them.
The application, the size and type of load,
the attachments to be used and the period
of use must also be taken into consideration
in selecting the right hoist for the job.
Remember the hoist was designed to ease
our burden and carelessness not only endangers
the operator but in many cases, a valuable load.
INSPECT
All hoists should be visually inspected before use, in addition
to regular, periodic maintenance inspections.
Inspect hoists for operation warning notices
and legibility.
Deciencies should be noted and brought to the
attention of supervisors. Be sure defective hoists
are tagged and taken out of service until repairs
are made.
Under no circumstances should you operate a
malfunctioning hoist.
Check for gouged, twisted, distorted straps and foreign material.
Do not operate hoists with twisted, kinked or damaged straps.
Hoist Straps should be properly cleaned.
Hooks that are bent, worn or whose openings
are enlarged beyond normal throat opening
should not be used. If latch does not engage
throat opening of hook, hoist should be taken
out of service.
Straps should be checked for deposits of
foreign material which may be carried into
the hoist mechanism.
Check ratchet and pawls for evidence of
damage.
DO NOT LIFT MORE THAN RATED LOAD.
DO NOT OPERATE DAMAGED OR MALFUNCTIONING UNIT.
DO NOT OPERATE WITH TWISTED, KINKED, OR DAMAGED STRAP.
USE HOIST PROPERLY
Be sure the hoist is solidly held in the uppermost part of the support
hook arc.
Be sure the hoist and load are in a straight line. Do not use unless
frame and strap form a straight line between hooks.
Be sure load is hooked securely. Do not tip load the hook. Do not
load hook latch. Hook latch is to prevent detachment of load under
slack chain conditions only.
Do not operate with hoist frame resting against
any object. Apply the load gently.
Do not jerk it.
Never use an extension on the lever! You're
dangerously overloading the hoist if you ex-
ceed the rated lever pull or if you have to use
a lever extension to lift or pull a load.
PRACTICE CAUTION ALWAYS
Do not lift co-workers with a hoist.
Make sure everyone is clear of the load
when you apply tension.
Do not remove or obscure operational
warning notices.
OPERATOR SERVICE
CLEANING
Hoists should be kept clean and free of dust, dirt, moisture, etc.,
which will in any way affect the operation or safety of the equipment.
AFTER REPAIRS
Carefully operate the hoist before returning it to full service.
DO NOT LIFT PEOPLE OR LOADS OVER PEOPLE
VIOLATIONS OF ANY OF THE WARNINGS LISTED MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY TO THE OPERATOR
OR NEARBY PERSONNEL BY NATURE OF RELEASED LOAD OR BROKEN HOIST COMPONENTS.
DO NOT PULL AT AN ANGLE. BE SURE HOIST AND LOAD ARE
IN A STRAIGHT LINE.
DO NOT USE UNLESS FRAME AND STRAP FORM A STRAIGHT
LINE BETWEEN HOOKS.
DO NOT USE IF FRAME IS IN CONTACT WITH ANY OBJECT.
DO NOT USE STRAP AS A SLING.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION ON THE LEVER.

GENERAL INFORMATION
SPECIFICATIONS
The Little Mule Lineman’s Strap Hoist is high quality and
dependable, making it one of the favorites of linemen across the
nation. These hoists are made with cast aluminum frames as well as
corrosion-resistant stainless steel springs and frame shafts. Roller
shafts are stainless steel plated. All rotating shafts are mounted on
bronze bushings for reduced wear. The open design allows for easy
inspection and cleaning.
This strap hoist is designed for rugged use with safety and
dependability in mind. The solid berglass handle provides an
added non-conductive level when used proper hot line handling
techniques. A built in overload feature comes standard on every
hoist. The berglass handle, with replaceable tips, bends to alert
operator of a possible overload. Thumbscrews used to secure the
handle are pegged and cannot be backed out. Double interlocking
pawls assure one pawl is engaged at all times. Dual pawl springs
provide unsurpassed reliability. All hooks swivel 360° and are
equipped with latches. Optional hooks with gates and hot stick rings
are available.

SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING
SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH:ELECTRICAL SHOCK MAY
RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH
The web strap on this hoist is NOT a rated insulating member.
When clean and dry, the strap may have dielectric properties typical
of nylon or polyester bers.The non-metallichandle and webbing
provide an extra measure of safety for use around energized power
lines. Use an appropriate insulating member in series with hoist
to achieve proper working distances per OSHA Regulation
Subpart V,1926.950 or your company work practices.When the
handle swings closer to energized conductors than OSHA safe
working distances or company practices permit, use appropriate
clothing and rubber gloves for rated voltages.
HOIST SPECIFICATIONS
All web strap hoist models are designed for lifting and pulling loads
up to rated capacities listed on the hoist nameplate. Features include
a winding wheel for taking up slack or freestripping of the strap and a
handle tip designed to bend before any mechanical part of the hoist
is subjected to damaging overload. The handle may be inserted into
the U-Frame socket from either direction to facilitate use in conned
areas or to allow the operator to pull against the load under unusual
conditions. A double, interlocking pawl system provides positive
load control at all times. Hot-stick rings on levers and hooks increase
safety and utility. Refer to Table 1.
OPERATION
LIFTING AND PULLING
Place reversing lever in up position, engaging the loading pawl against
the ratchet teeth. Work handle as required to get desired lift or tension.
Handle may be inserted into either end of the U-frame socket to enable
user to work in restricted areas. Never use a “cheater” bar or handle other
than those approved by the manufacturer.
CAUTION
Rig hoist properly so that the hoist is free to align with the
direction of pull. Avoid side loading. Hoist frame should not
bear against anything and should be free to align with hooks.
LOWERING
Place the reversing lever in the down position and operate the handle to
its extreme down position until the load is removed from the holding pawl.
As the handle is slowly released, the load will be lowered or released by
one notch. To continue lowering repeat this operation.
FREE-WHEELING
Before attempting to free-wheel make certain the hoist is unloaded. To
release the strap for free-wheeling, the reversing lever must rst be in the
down position. Press the free-wheel lever. The strap may now be stripped
from the drum to facilitate more rapid positioning while attaching to the
object to be pulled or lifted. For safety, the hoist will not free-wheel while
under load (approx. 35 lbs, depending on amount of strap on drum). This
is possible with the torsion spring between the releasing arm and pawl
assembly.
