Is it safe to use a chain hoist?
Hand chain hoists are typical lightweight lifting equipment. Although they are small in size, they can carry heavy objects of tons or more. With such load capacity and manual control at close range, there are inevitably some safety hazards.
Where do these security risks come from? How can we avoid it?
1. Firstly, there is a load issue.
Hand chain hoists have super strong load capacity, but they must not be overloaded. Overloading is a serious violation of operating behavior. Hand chain hoists, whether it is the lifting chain or the ratchet and pawl, have a certain bearing range. Once overloaded, there is a risk of heavy objects falling!
Once an accident occurs, there's no time to regret it!
2. Then there is the problem of diagonal tension of heavy objects.
This is a problem that many people overlook. The lifting chain connected to the lifting target is not perpendicular to the ground. In this situation, once the heavy object leaves the ground, it will swing. The larger the tilt angle, the greater the amplitude of the swing, which can easily cause serious injuries to surrounding personnel.
Once there is an operational error, the consequences are unimaginable!
3. Finally, there is the issue with the hook.
When the hook of the lifting chain is connected to a heavy object, it is necessary to check the hook carefully, especially whether the self-locking of the safety tongue is normal. This is the last line of defense for the chain hoist. If the hook has problems, it can also cause serious falling accidents.
This is a particularly important area to pay attention to when using a chain hoist. Only by doing a good job in these inspections can the safety of using the chain hoist be greatly improved.
