Maintenance Tips
-
Inspect for Damage:
Regularly check the clamp for cracks, bends, or other signs of damage, especially on the lifting jaws and handles. Replace any damaged parts immediately to ensure safe lifting.
-
Check the Grip Mechanism:
Inspect the gripping mechanism for wear and ensure that it holds the stone securely. Lubricate the moving parts of the mechanism to maintain smooth operation, as recommended by the manufacturer.
-
Clean After Use:
After each use, wipe down the clamp with a clean, dry cloth to remove debris, dirt, and any materials that could compromise its grip. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
-
Test the Clamp Functionality:
Before every use, test the clamp by engaging and releasing it without a load to ensure it operates correctly. Ensure the clamp opens and closes smoothly without hesitation.
-
Inspect the Locking Mechanism:
Make sure the locking system is functioning properly and engages securely to prevent accidental release during use. Tighten any loose bolts or screws.
-
Check for Rust or Corrosion:
Inspect the clamp regularly for any signs of rust or corrosion, particularly if exposed to moisture. Clean and treat the surface with appropriate rust preventatives to prolong its lifespan.
-
Follow Load Capacity:
Adhere strictly to the lifting capacity of 1050 kg. Overloading the clamp can compromise its structural integrity and pose safety risks.
-
Store in a Safe, Dry Area:
When not in use, store the clamp in a dry, clean environment to prevent exposure to harsh weather conditions or extreme temperatures, which can lead to material degradation.
