2IVH / VVH
The present instruction is only valid for the follo-
wing variants of the shortening hook
• IVH ICE-Shortening hook in ICE-Pink (Purple colour,
quality grade 120, D1 stamping)
• VVH VIP-Shortening hook in VIP-Pink
(Magenta colour, quality grade 100, H1 stamping)
Please read assembly instruction carefully
before initial operation of the Shortening
hook. Make sure to understand all volumes.
Nonobservance of this assembly manual
can lead to serious physical injury and pro-
perty damage and eliminates warranty.
In doubt or in misconception please note
that the German version of this document
is decisive.
1 Safety instructions
ATTENTION
Wrong assembled or damaged lifting and
lashing means 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.
• Please consider extreme circumstances or shock
loading when choosing the used Shortening hook
and the components.
• Only RUD round steel link chains of the corres-
ponding nominal size must be attached to the
Shortening hook.
• RUD Shortening hook must only be used by instruc-
ted and competent persons considering DGUV
100-500, 2.8 (BGR 500) and outside Germany
noticing the country specic statutory regulations.
2 Intended use
Hereby described shortening hooks must only be used
for lifting, lashing or transporting of loads.
Please observe that the shortening hook/chain can
straighten out in the loading direction
Only RUD round steel link chains of the corresponding
nominal size must be attached to the shortening hook.
The shortening hooks are designed acc. to DIN 5692.
3 Assembly- and instruction manual
3.1 General information
• Capability of temperature usage ICE-components
(IVH): When using the ICE Shortening hook at
temperatures beyond 200°C the permissible WLL
has to be reduced.
-60°C up to 200°C no reduction
200°C up to 250°C minus 10 %
250°C up to 300°C minus 40 %
Temperatures exceeding 300°C are prohibited!
• Capability of temperature usage VIP-components
(VVH): When using the VIP Shortening hook at
temperatures beyond 200°C the permissible WLL
has to be reduced.
-40°C up to 200°C no reduction
200°C up to 300°C minus 10 %
300°C up to 380°C minus 40 %
Temperatures exceeding 380°C are prohibited!
• RUD VIP Shortening hooks must not be used with ag-
gressive chemicals such as acids, alkaline solutions
and their vapours.
• The WLL oft he components are depending on the
following variables:
- Quality grade of component (picture 1 to 3)
- Nominal size of component
- Present load factor
The permissible WLL can be taken out oft he
corresponding ICE- and VIP user instructions (or
alternatively from the website ww.rud.com).
3.2 Hints for the assembly
When assembling the shortening hook please observe
the correct dimensioning of chain and component. The
quality grade/nominal size can be recognized by the
stamping/marking at the component/pin/chain resp.
by the colour.
HINT
Observe in any case the quality grade
assignment at the components
- Please assemble only load pins with
D1-12 stamping into the ICE com-
ponents (IVH)
- Please assemble only load pins with
H1-10 stamping into the VIP
components (VVH)
Mixing of system components of dierent
quality grades/ nominal sizes is not allo-
wed.

Basically essential:
• Assemble sleeve pin for the securing of the load
pin in such a way at the clevis that the opening can
be seen from outside.
• RUD G-pins are foolproof
- For ICE components use only the oval ICE-G-Pin
(picture 1)
- For VIP components use only the round VIP-G-
Pin (picture 2)
• G-Pin must be assembled captive with a sleeve
pin in the step hole (picture 5)
• Use sleeve pin only once!
• Use only original RUD spare parts.
• Check nally the correct assembly (see chapter 4
Inspection criteria).

3.3 General information
Pic. 6: Usage possibilities of the shortening hook
• Check before each usage of the Shortening hook that
the securing of the G-Pin is in correct position.
• Make sure that the load force happens in the
straight leg without being twisted, fold-over or
kinked.
• Control frequently and before each operation the
total lifting/lashing mean in regard of ongoing abi-
lity, strong corrosion, wear, deformation etc. (see
chapter 4 Inspection criteria).
ATTENTION
Wrong assembled or damaged lifting- and
lashing means as well as improper usage
can lead to physical injury and damage of
property when load falls.
Inspect lifting means before each use
carefully!
• Leave hazardous area when possible.
• Watch always attached loads.
• Read for all lifting/lashing means the RUD sling
chain Safety instructions for RUD sling chains resp.
the corresponding WLL (ICE quality grade 120 or
VIP grade 100).
3.4 Usage of the shortening hook
ATTENTION
Only RUD round steel link chains of the
corresponding dimension must be attached
to the shortening hook.
Attaching directly into a machine compo-
nent f.e. is not allowed.
Pic. 7: Forbidden attachment in components
During usage please observe the following:
• The attached chain must lay at the bottom of the
shortening hook.
HINT
The angled opening (form closure) fullls
the requirements of DIN 5692.

4IVH / VVH
3.5 Hints fort he periodically inspection
Check by a competent person in periods, which
are determined by usage but at least 1x year, the
continuous appropriateness of the lifting means (see
chapter 4 Inspection criteria).
Depending on the working conditions, f.e. when often
used, increased wear or corrosion, inspections could
be necessary in shorter periods than one year.
4 Inspection criteria
Check and control the following points before each
initial operation, in periodical periods after the assem-
bly and after special incidents:
• completeness of the Shortening hook
• readable size and manufacturer sign
• mechanical damage like strong notches, especially
in areas where tensile stress occurs
• Cracks or other damage, especially existing not-
ches at the bail of the hook
• Deformation of component
5 Hints for repairing and maintenance
• Only RUD original spare parts must be used and
all repairing and overhauling operations must be
documented in the chain card le (of the complete
lifting mean) or use the AYE-D.NET.
• Only load pins or sleeve pins must be exchanged.
RUD components are tested in accordance with DIN
EN 1677, with a minimum of 20.000 load cycles at
1.5 x WLL. The BG/DGUV recommends:
At high dynamical loads with high number of load
cycles the bearing stress must be reduced acc. to
FEM Group 1Bm (M3 acc. To DIN EN 818-7).
• The shortening hook resp. the chain must be able
to straighten out (pic. 8).
Pic. 8: Alignment
• Loading must not occur at the tip of the hook
(pic 9).
Pic. 9: Forbidden attaching into the tip of hook
• Only one end of the chain strand must be loaded
(exception: endless chains).
