2B-ABA
Before initial usage of the RUD lifting point
B-ABA, please read carefully the safety
instructions. Make sure that you have un-
derstood all subjected matters.
Non-observance can lead to serious per-
sonal injuries and material damage and
eliminates warranty.
1 Safety instructions
ATTENTION
Wrong assembled or damaged lifting points
B-ABA as well as improper use can lead to
injuries of persons and damage of objects
when load drops.
Please inspect all lifting points before each
use.
• Remove all body parts (fingers, hands, arms,
etc.) out of the hazard area (danger of crushing or
squeezing) during the lifting process.
• RUD lifting points B-ABA must only be used by in-
structed and competent persons considering BGR
500 (DGUV-rules 100-500) and outside Germany
noticing the country specic statutory regulations.
• No technical alterations must be implemented on
the B-ABA.
• No people may stay in the danger zone.
• Jerky lifting (strong impacts) should be prevented.
• Always ensure a stable position of the load when
lifting. Swinging must be prevented.
• Damaged or worn B-ABA must never be utilised.
2 Intended use of the B-ABA
RUD lifting points B-ABA must only be used for the
assembly at the load or at lifting means.
They are intended to be hinged into lifting means.
RUD lifting points B-ABA can also be used as lashing
points to attach lashing means.
Loading from any side is permitted.
RUD lifting points B-ABA must only be used in the
hereby described operation purpose.
3 Assembly- and instruction manual
3.1 General information
• Capability of temperature usage:
When used at higher temperatures the working
load limit (WLL) of the lifting point must be redu-
ced as follows:
- -40°C up to 200°C no reduction
- 200°C up to 300°C minus 10 %
- 300°C up to 400°C minus 25 %
Temperatures exceeding 400°C are prohibited!
• RUD lifting points B-ABA must not be used with
aggressive chemicals such as acids, alkaline so-
lutions and their vapours.
• Please mark mounting position of lifting point with
a coloured contrast paint for better visibility.
3.2 Hints for the assembly
Basically essential:
• The material construction to which the lifting point
will be attached should be of adequate strength to
withstand forces during lifting without deformation.
The German testing authority BG/DGUV, recom-
mends the following minimum for bolt lengths:
1x M in steel (minimum quality S235JR[1.0037])
1.25x M in cast iron (however when castings of
lower strength [<200 MPa] are used the
thread engagement has to be at least 1,5xd)
2x M in aluminum alloys
2.5x M in light metals of low strength
(M = thread size, e.g. M20)
• The position of the lifting points must be carried
out in such a way that unintended movement like
turning or ipping will be avoided:
• For single leg lifts: the lifting point should be
vertically above the centre of gravity of the load.
• For two leg lifts: the lifting points must be
equidistant to/or above the centre of gravity
of the load.
• For three and four leg lifts. the lifting points
should be arranged symmetrical around the
centre of gravity, in the same plane if possible.
• Symmetry of loading:
Determine the necessary WLL of each lifting point
for a symmetrical or an unsymmetrical load by
using the following physical calculation formula:
WLL = necessary WLL (kg) of lifting point /
single strand (kg)
G = weight of load (kg)
n = number of load bearing strands
ß = Inclination angle of single strand
WLL=G
n x cos ß
Number of load bearing strands:
symmetric unsymmetric
two leg 2 1
three / four leg 3 1
Table 1: Load bearing strands (compare to table 3)
• RUD lifting points B-ABA must be installed by using
the supplied ICE-bolts.
If needed, Vario-ICE-bolts can be ordered on re-
quest (compare chart 5 / pic. 4).
• A plane bolt-on surface must be ensured resp.
provided. Blind holes must be drilled deep enough,
that the supporting area of the B-ABA ts properly.
Tighten bolts with required torque value (see table
2).

• For a single use hand tightening with a spanner is
su󰀩ciant. Bolt supporting area must sitproper on
bolt-on surface.
• Check nally the correct assembly (see chapter 4,
Inspection / repair).
3.3 User instructions
• Always regularly observe the appearance of the
whole lifting point (e.g. xed lifting point/slings)
before using it (secured bolt seat, strong corrosion,
cracks on load-bearing parts, deformations). Refer
to chapter 4 Inspection / repair.
ATTENTION
Wrong assembled or damaged B-ABA as
well as improper use can lead to injuries of
persons and damage of objects when load
drops. Please inspect all B-ABA before
each use.
• RUD components are designed according to DIN
EN 818 and DIN EN 1677 for a dynamic load of
20,000 load cycles.
• Keep in mind that several load cycles can occur
with a lifting procedure
• Keep in mind that, due to the high dynamic stress
with high numbers of load cycles, that there is a
danger that the product will be damaged
• The BG/DGUV recommends: For higher dy-
namic loading with a high number of load cycles
(continuous operation), the working load stress
must be reduced according to the driving mecha-
nism group 1Bm (M3 in accordance with DIN EN
818-7). Use a lifting point with a higher working
load limit.
• Please check carefully the wear indicator markings
of the lifting point (see picture 1):
Usage permitted:
no wear marks visible
Use prohibited:
Replacement criteria rea-
ched. Material all the way

Pic. 1: Wear indicators
• To prevent unintended dismounting through shock
loading, rotation or vibration, thread locking uid such
as Loctite (depending on the application, please pay
attention to the manufacturer‘s instruction) could be
used to secure the bolt, or use form-closed devices.
• Please note that the lifting mean must be free mo-
veable within the lifting point B-ABA. When lifting
means (sling chains) are hinged or unhinged, no
pinching, shearing or joint spots must occure during
the handling.
• Avoid damage of lifting means resulting from sharp
edges.
• If the lifting point B-ABA is used solely for lashing,
the value of the working load limit can be doubled:
LC = 2 x WLL
4 Inspection / repair
4.1 Hints for periodical inspections
The operator must determine and specify the nature
and scope of the required tests as well as the periods
of repeating tests by means of a risk assessment (see
sections 4.2 and 4.3).
The continuing suitability of the anchor point must be
checked at least 1x year by an expert.
Depending on the usage conditions, f.e. frequent
usage, increased wear or corrosion, it might be nec-
essary to check in shorter periods than one year. The
inspection has also to be carried out after accidents
and special incidents.
4.2 Test criteria for the regular visual inspection
by the user
• Ensure correct bolt and nut size, quality and length
• Ensure compatibility of bolt thread and tapped hole
––
> inspect the torque
• Completeness of the lifting point.
• Complete, readable WLL statements as well as
manufacturer sign
• Deformation at load bearing components like base
body and bolts
• Mechanical damage such as signicant notches,
particularly in areas subject to tensile stress.
4.3 Additional test criteria for the
competent person / repair worker
• Reduction of cross-section due to wear >10 %
(see picture 1, wear indicators)
• Strong corrosion
• Function and damage at the bolt, nut and/or
thread.
• further checks may be required, depending on
the result of the risk assessment (e.g. testing for
cracks in load-bearing parts).
