The chain block is firmly fixed, reducing the possibility of danger

      Fix the force supporting chain block on the lifting point, which can reduce the possibility of danger in the entire operation process by half. So how to fix it firmly?

       To achieve the purpose of firmly fixing the force supporting chain block to the lifting point, selecting a suitable and firm lifting point is a prerequisite, as well as a necessary condition. The specific selection requirements are as follows:

  1. The lifting point of the chain hoist is divided into fixed type and mobile type. If it is the former, it needs to be selected at the position directly above the weight, while if it is the latter, the lifting point can be selected at any position that can be moved directly above the weight. Requirements for selection of lifting points of power supporting chain block.

   2. There should be no debris near the lifting point, otherwise it may not only cause the chain block to collide and damage, but also hinder its own operation, causing danger.

   3. The lifting point must be able to bear the sum of the self weight of the chain hoist and its rated weight, otherwise there may be overloading of the lifting point, causing it to deform or break, leading to a dangerous situation where the chain hoist may fall.

According to the above requirements, after selecting a suitable lifting point, it is necessary to hang the hook on the chain block on the lifting point. Note that if the chain block is of large tonnage, it is first necessary to use other lifting equipment to transport it to the same horizontal position near the lifting point, then start hanging, and finally slowly withdraw the transport equipment.

I hope you can firmly fix the lever chain hoist when using it to avoid danger, causing damage to heavy objects, or even casualties.
