WARNING
Death or serious injury could occur if
unauthorized or unnecessary personnel
are in the hoisting area. Permit only
personnel
actually
engaged
in
the
hoisting operation to be near the unit

on hoisting components which can
cause failure and loss of load. Be sure
hoisting equipment is on solid footing
and is suitable for the size of the load.

and
overhead
clearance when hoisting.
