3. CAUTIONS BEFORE USING
a) Before using the equipment, operators must perform the daily test to ensure correct operation.
b) Before using the equipment, operators must confirm that there are no obstacles along the
movement of the equipment.
c) Before using the equipment, suspension system must be checked to ensure that platform is
stable at all times.
d) In case the area below platform is open to the public, preventive measures have to be taken to
safeguard the people below (Ex. Barriers, roof protected walk ways, etc.).
e) All hazards related to platform encountering obstruction are not completely covered by
platform’s safety devices. The operators shall check for obstructions along the travel of
platform.
f) Overload Detection Device may not cover platform in all configurations. The operators must
check that loading of platform does not exceed rated load of each platform.
g) An area on the platform must be available to allow operators to operate the hoist safely.
h) Use only certified safety harness, lanyard, rope grabs, and independent life lines at all times.
i) In the cold weather, lifting operation of the hoist may not be available smoothly. Also, the hoist
may not descend even emergency controlled descent lever is operated. Preventive measure
not the hoist to be cooled must be taken.
j) If the load on the platform is light, descent speed of emergency controlled descent may be
slower.
k) The main suspension wire rope must be vertically set and installed to the hoist.

4. CAUTIONS WHEN USING
a) Stop operating and notify supervisor if any faults which may damage to safety of the
equipment is found.
b) Having suitable communication means between operators and supervisor is recommended.
c) When not in use, unplug power cable and lock the equipment to protect from unauthorized
use.
d) If the hoist isn’t operated for more than 30 minutes in the cold weather, ascending operation
may not be operated smoothly. In that case, idle the hoist 30 seconds or operate descending
operation before ascending.
5. PROHIBITIONS
a) Do not use two or more units of the hoist with one wire rope.
b) Do not insert wire rope from the wire rope outlet of the hoist.
c) Do not tie and secure the discharged wire rope from the wire rope outlet.
d) Do not apply 20 kg or more pulling load to the discharged wire rope from the wire rope outlet.
e) Do not use the hoist in the water.
f) Do not use the hoist as a hoisting device for elevator which permanently installed.
g) Do not use the hoist as a traction device which pull horizontally.
h) Do not use the hoist as a medical traction device.
i) Do not use the hoist in potentially explosive atmosphere.
