Thank you for choosing one of our high-quality products.The quality systems of manage-
ment and services of Terrier Lifting Clamps B.V. fully comply with ISO 9001 standards. The
many years of vast experience are a guarantee of optimum quality and safety. Terrier Lifting

2 AUTHORISED APPLICATIONS
Terrier TPH(-HD) pipe hooks have a high-performance bearing surface finished with a plas-
tic coating, which is easy to replace. Terrier TPH(-HD) pipe hooks are used exclusively for
horizontal lifting and transporting of pipes. The hooks can only be used in pairs using a
two-leg sling or spreader beam. Compact and lightweight in design, Terrier TPH(-HD) pipe
hooks have a high lifting capacity.
3 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Determine whether the WLL of the TPH(-HD) is sufficient for the object to be lifted.
Determine the allowable lifting angle from the “diagram determining allowable lifting
angle” provided below, the thickness of the material to be lifted and the maximum jaw
opening of the hooks in question.
Always use a two-leg sling or spreader beam to lift pipes. Do not use two cranes to do so.
Place the Terrier TPH(-HD) pipe hooks attached at each end of the pipes completely inside
the pipe, until they sit firmly in the back end of the jaws. Lift the load slowly and transfer
it to the destination point, then lower slowly until it is resting on solid ground. The TPH(-
HD) pipe hooks can now be easily removed. They are ready to be used again or put away.
4 SAFETY REGULATIONS
Pay attention to your own safety and to that of direct bystanders!
Read the following safety regulations before using your new TPH(-HD) pipe hooks!

10
For your own safety and the safety of the product, the lifting hook must be inspected and
tested at least once (1x) annually, and revised by Terrier Lifting Clamps B.V. or another au-
thorised revision company, if necessary.
See also Section 8 - Revision. No structural alterations (welding, grinding, etc.) may be made
to the hooks.
Please contact Terrier Lifting Clamps B.V. for more information.
TEMPERATURE
The operating temperature of Terrier TPH pipe hooks is between -40 °C (+40 °F) and + 50 °C
(122 °F). For Terrier TPH-HD pipe hooks, this is between -30°C (-22°F) and +80°C (176°F).
For other ambient temperatures, contact your dealer.
LOADS
Our Terrier TPH(-HD) pipe hooks are used exclusively for horizontal lifting and
transporting of pipes. Do not exceed the WLL specified on the hooks.
AVOID LIFE-THREATENING SITUATIONS
Avoid life-threatening situations by complying with the following guidelines:
- Do not work with pipe hooks that have not been approved.
- Keep a safe distance during lifting operations and never walk or stand under the load.
- Donotusetheliftinghookifdamaged;havethehookrepairedbyTerrier Lifting Clamps B.V.
or another authorised revision company. If in doubt, contact your supplier.
- Check the material to be lifted for defects and cracks.
- Check lifting hook and jaws for defects, cracks and deformations.
- Do not lift loads that are heavier than the safe working load (WLL) that is clearly
indicated on the hook and the certificate.
- Do not lift loads that are thicker or thinner than the jaw opening, as specified on
the lifting hook and the certificate.
- Terrier TPH(-HD) pipe hooks can only be used in pairs with a two-leg sling or spreader
beam.
- Clean the area on the object where the hook is to be attached, removing any grease, oil,
dirt, corrosion and contamination.
- The pipe hooks are suitable for use in normal atmospheric conditions.

WARNING
- A free fall or uncontrolled swinging on the two-leg sling or spreader beam whereby
there is contact with objects can damage the lifting hook. Should this occur, the hook
must first be thoroughly inspected before use.
- TPH(-HD) pipe hooks are not suitable as a form of permanent link.
- The hook must undergo preventive maintenance every month, see Section 6 - Mainte-
nance.
- Do not make any structural alterations to the lifting hook (welding, grinding, etc.). Such
alterations may compromise the performance and safety of the hook. If any such altera-
tions are made, all forms of warranty and product liability become invalid.
- The warranty and liability conditions also only apply when original Terrier components
are used.
- Improper use of the hook and/or failure to comply with the instructions and warnings
in the operating instructions regarding the use of this product can adversely affect the
health of the user and/or bystanders.
5 LIFTING
- Check that the safe working load (WLL) and jaws (clamping the hook) correspond to the
load to be lifted.
- Attach the pipe hooks to lifting equipment, either:
- by means of a belt or chain, in combination with a chain shackle or D shackle,
if necessary.
- Make sure all attachment devices are approved and are of the correct tonnage. All the
attachment links and securing devices must be sufficiently large, so that the hook can
move freely.
- Check that the hook has no visible damage.
- Inspect the plastic coating for wear and defects (the plastic coating must be free of con-
tamination, dry and undamaged).
- Check the frame and jaw for damage, cracks or deformation (which is indicative of over-
load).
- Remove grease and dirt from the area on the pipe where the lifting hook is to be at-
tached.
- Place the hook completely in the pipe until it sits firmly in the back end of the jaws and
make sure that the hook is positioned in such a way as to balance the load when it is
being lifted.
- Lift steadily to allow effective gripping by the hooks on taking up the load.
- Make sure the load is stably positioned before the hooks are removed.
6 MAINTENANCE
For maximum safety, inspect the lifting hook at least once a month.
Do not use the hook if:
- it is cracked or deformed,
- the plastic coating is damaged or contaminated.
If any of the above defects are found, see Sections 7 and 8.

7 REMOVAL/INSTALLATION
- With a pin driver, tap the tension pins from one side of the lifting hook completely
through the housing (for TPH models; 1.5 to 8 tonnes).
- With a pin driver, tap the tension pins from both sides of the hook so far into the plastic
that the tension pin is seated just beyond the side plate of the hook (for TPH models;
10 to 20 tonnes).
- Loosen all nuts and remove the bolts (for TPH-HD models; 5 to 60 tonnes).
- The plastic blocks can now be removed from the hook.
- Install all new components.
- Make sure that the vertical and horizontal covers are installed correctly. The vertical
cover is T-shaped (in the TPH model).
- First place the vertical and then the horizontal cover.
- Always use new original tension pins; insert them with a hammer and tongue-and-
groove pliers (in the TPH model).
- Always use new original bolts and locknuts (in the TPH-HD model).
- For replacement, use original Terrier parts only.
8 REVISION
At least once (1x) per year, or if the lifting hook becomes damaged, TPH(-HD) pipe hooks
must be inspected, tested and revised by Terrier Lifting Clamps B.V. or another authorised
revision company, if necessary.
9 DESTRUCTION
At the end of its working life, the TPH(-HD) pipe hooks can be treated as scrap iron, as long
as it is rendered unusable first.
