· Application
- A horizontal lifting clamp for carrying massive amounts of steel plates and low “H-”, “T-”, “ㄷ-” section steel blocks in
small space.
· Features
- A special carrying clamp whose bottom (“B” in the drawing) is designed to be low in order to use low wooden loading
blocks (wooden support blocks). The NHC-HS has the built-in safety latch that prevents a work piece from slipping due
to the initial clamping force caused by the spring even if the wire rope becomes loose during the operation.
· How to use
- Insert a work piece into the inside end of the clamp's jaw opening and then lock the safety latch.
- Clamp the center of gravity of a work piece in order to equally distribute the weight of the work piece.
· Warnings
- Do not exceed the rated capacity specified on the clamp since the NHC-HS is designed to be lightweight with a safety
factor of 3.
- Lift a work piece only which falls within the jaw opening range specified in the instruction manual.
- Do not vertically lift work pieces with horizontal clamps.
- Never lift narrow section steel.
- Never lift bendable work pieces.
- When lifting a work piece, a signal man must be outside the rotation radius of a work piece to send a signal to a crane
operator.
