2. DESCRIPTION
This equipment has been designed for vertically lifting and lowering loads by hand, under normal atmospheric conditions in a safe
working environment.
Features:
• Heavy duty Lever block with 3.0M standard lifting capacity.

3. SPECIFICATIONS
See diagram and table on the opposite page for full specifications based on equipment capacity.
4. OPERATION
IMPORTANT: Please ensure that you have read and fully understand the user guidelines and safety precautions before operating
this equipment. It is essential that a risk assessment is carried out before undertaking any operations with the lever block.
TO LIFT A LOAD:
• Ensure that the lever block is suspended from a structure capable of supporting at least 1½ times the safe working load of
the block and that the block hook is fully engaged, with the safety bar closed.
• Confirm that the load does not exceed the Safe Working Load of the block.
• Ensure that slings/chains/ropes around the load are adequate and in good condition and that the load is directly below block.
• Attach the slings/chains/ropes to block load hook and ensure safety bar is closed.
• Select 'UP' and smoothly use the ratchet handle until load chain is taut, confirm that it is vertical (i.e. not pulling at an angle).
smoothly until the load chain is taut and confirm that it is vertical (i.e. not pulling at an angle).
• Begin to raise load slowly and check that it is level, with no chance of the load tilting and/or slipping from its restraints.
• If necessary lower the load and readjust the slings as necessary in order to obtain a safe, level lift.
• Stop lifting at approximately 100mm to check that brake will hold load.
• Continue to raise load to required height in a slow and controlled manner.
• Do not raise so far that load hook comes into contact with the block.
TO LOWER THE LOAD:
• Move the directional knob to the 'DOWN' position and use the ratchet handle to lower the load.
• Lower the load smoothly and slowly and do not lower so far as to completely extend the full length of the load chain.
WARNING: If, at any time, the hand chain will not move in either direction do not attempt to force it but, after arranging safe
support for any suspended load, have the block inspected by a qualified engineer.

5. MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANT: This equipment must be kept clean and dry and must be maintained in accordance with these instructions. The owner
and/or operator must be aware that repair of this equipment will require specialised knowledge and facilities. Unauthorised parts
may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty. Contact your Tundra Industrial dealer for repair advice.
Lubrication:
• Lubricate the load chain and both hook shanks regularly
Equipment Inspections:
• Before each use of the lever block, an inspection must be performed for damage, and detection of loose or missing parts.
• Inspection requires the user to look at the lever block for defects and checking the operation of the hooks, the load chain, the
brake device and lubrication of the block without loading it. This is much more than a check but does not normally require any
part of the lever block to be dismantled, other than removal or opening of covers or housings.
• It is recommended that this equipment is inspected carefully before each use.
Equipment Examinations:
• Examination of the equipment requires verification that the lever block can safely continue in service including a functional
test of all safety devices (i.e. the braking device etc.) to verify that they operate within the required tolerances. An
examination is more thorough than an inspection.
• The lever block must be examined immediately, if it has been subject to an abnormal load or shock.
• It is recommended that such an examination is made by a fully qualified engineer.
• It is recommended that an annual examination of the lever block is made by a fully qualified engineer.
