SAFELOCK safety interlock
The suspension eye runs in a scenery with two
positions:
•
Position A: "Gripping"- Locked gripping of the
load
•
Position B: "Release"- Release the locking
device and empty stroke (device without load),
see red marking
•
The device can therefore be operated by one
person
Danger from falling load!
If the suspension eye is in position B "idle
stroke", it is forbidden to move pipes! There is no
function of the SAFELOCK safety interlock and
the load could fall down!
Always move the pipes only when the
suspension eye is in position A "Grip"!
6.1.1
Laying pipes on a slope
When laying concrete pipes on a slope, the red
side of the pipe must always point downhill.
If the side marked in red points uphill, the
subsequent opening of the device is only very
difficult or possibly not possible at all when
setting down the material to be picked up!
