3 5. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. 6. Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. If the tools should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user. 7. Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double insulation eliminates the need for the three wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system. 8. Do not abuse the Power Cord. Keep the Power Cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged Power Cords immediately. Damaged Power Cords increase the risk of electric shock. 9. When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked W-A or W. These extension cords are rated for outdoor use, and reduce the risk of electric shock. Personal Safety 10. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. 11. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts. 12. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the Power Switch is off before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the Power Switch, or plugging in power tools with the Power Switch on, invites accidents. 13. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury. 14. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. 15. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions. Always wear ANSI approved safety impact eye goggles and heavy work gloves when using the Electric Hoist.

5 5. Always unplug the Electric Hoist from its electrical outlet before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures. 6. Never leave the Electric Hoist unattended while running. Turn power off if you have to leave the Electric Hoist. 7. Before each use, check all nuts, bolts, and screws for tightness. Vibration during use may cause these to loosen. 8. Route the Power Cord (60) away from other tools and equipment. Take care to prevent damage to the Power cord and Control Handle (77) Cord (49). Keep extension cord off the ground and away from water. 9. Install the Electric Hoist on a proper surface. Securely bolt the Electric Hoist to a jib boom (only, not included) that is capable of supporting the weight of the Electric Hoist and its maximum load. 10. Keeps hands and body away from cable, hook, and load when operating. 11. Always use proper couplings when connecting hoist cable hook to load. 12. Do not use inappropriate attachments to extend the length of the hoist cable. 13. Never lift people or hoist loads over people. 14. Do not apply load to hoist when cable is fully extended. Never fully extend cable while under load. Keep at least 4 full turns of cable on the Cable Spool (9). 15. After moving an item with the Electric Hoist, secure the item. Do not rely on the hoist to hold it for an extended period. 16. Inspect hoist and power control cables before each use. Cables must be attached properly and in good condition. Never operate if the Hoist cable shows any signs of weakening, is knotted or kinked, or wrapped improperly around the Cable Spool (9). Components may be affected by exposure to chemicals, salts, and rust. 17. Do not operate this tool alone. Always use a spotter to help you see when it is safe to lift or lower a load. 18. Never come in between the hoist and the load when operating. Stand back during operation. Stay out of the direct line that the cable is pulling. If it slips or breaks, it will whiplash along this line. Never stand underneath a weight that is being lifted. 19. Beware of dynamic loading! A sudden start or jerk of the cable may create, for a brief instant, an excess load which may result in damage to the product and/or personal injury. Do not allow the load to swing. 20. People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s) before use. Electromagnetic fields in close proximity to heart pacemaker could cause pacemaker interference or pacemaker failure.

6 Grounding To prevent electric shock and death from incorrect grounding wire connection: Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the power cord plug provided with the tool. Never remove the grounding prong from the plug. Do not use the tool if the power cord or plug is damaged. If damaged, have it repaired by a service facility before use. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician The grounding prong in the plug is connected through the green wire inside the cord to the grounding system in the tool. The green wire in the cord must be the only wire connected to the tool s grounding system and must never be attached to an electrically live terminal. (See 3-Prong Plug and Outlet.) The tool must be plugged into an appropriate outlet, properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. The plug and outlet should look like those in the preceding illustration. (See 3-Prong Plug and Outlet.) Double Insulated Tools: Tools with Two Prong Plugs Grounded Tools: Tools with Three Prong Plugs 1. 3-Prong Plug and Outlet Tools marked with Grounding Required have a three wire cord and three prong grounding plug. The plug must be connected to a properly grounded outlet. If the tool should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user, reducing the risk of electric shock. (See 3-Prong Plug and Outlet.) Outlets for 2-Prong Plug Tools marked Double Insulated do not require grounding. They have a special double insulation system which satisfies OSHA requirements and complies with the applicable standards of Underwriters Laboratories, Inc., the Canadian Standard Association, and the National Electrical Code. (See Outlets for 2-Prong Plug.) Double insulated tools may be used in either of the 120 volt outlets shown in the preceding illustration. (See Outlets for 2-Prong Plug.) Extension Cords Grounded 1. tools require a three wire extension cord. Double Insulated SKU For technical questions, please call Page 6

7 tools can use either a two or three wire extension cord. As the distance from the supply outlet increases, you must use a heavier gauge extension cord. Using extension cords with inadequately sized wire causes a serious drop in voltage, resulting in loss of power and possible tool damage. (See Table A.) The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cord. For example, a 14 gauge cord can carry a higher current than a 16 gauge cord. (See Table A.) When using more than one extension cord to make up the total length, make sure each cord contains at least the minimum wire size required. (See Table A.) If you are using one extension cord for more than one tool, add the nameplate amperes and use the sum to determine the required minimum cord size. (See Table A.) If you are using an extension cord outdoors, make sure it is marked with the suffix W-A ( W in Canada) to indicate it is acceptable for outdoor use. Make sure the extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition. Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified electrician before using it. Protect the extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.
