Shorteners
You can choose to put the chain shortener on the branches to shorten the chains independently, move the load when the center of gravity is shifted so that some branches become smaller when they are lifted.
Care
- Do not weld or repair the chain and its accessories;
- Do not paint or galvanise the chain;
- Do not perform sudden movements or sudden lifting;
- Do not remove chain parts, and do not replace original parts;
- Use the equipment for its intended purpose;
- Respect the specified use temperature;
- Do not use acids/custics and their vapours with the chain slings.
Before using the chain sling it is important to note:
- The state of preservation of the chain sling;
- If the chains aren’t twisted;
- The load has been placed in the correct place on the hook (exactly in the centre)
