WARNING

Hoist tipping over / hydraulic attachment falling

The hydraulic attachment is heavy. The hoist/lifting equipment and/or hydraulic attachment tipping over or falling may cause serious injury and material damage.

  1. Only transport the hydraulic attachment with lifting equipment with the right load-bearing capacity for the weight of the hydraulic attachment.

  2. Only lift and secure the hydraulic attachment with lifting gear (ropes, chains, shackles etc.) with the right load-bearing capacity for the weight to be lifted.

  3. Make sure that there is nobody near or under the suspended hydraulic attachment.

  1. 1.
    Transport the hydraulic concrete buster with the cutter jaws open.

    There is less oil in the hydraulic concrete buster if the hydraulic concrete buster is transported with open cutter jaws. In the event of a leak, less oil is lost and the environmental damage is lower.

  2. 2.
    Open the hydraulic concrete buster before transporting it.

WARNING

Hydraulic attachment tipping over

The hydraulic attachment tipping off the fork of the forklift truck or the pallet may cause serious injury.

  1. Place the hydraulic attachment on a pallet.

  2. Strap the hydraulic attachment to the pallet using suitable strapping, as shown in the illustration below.

  3. Move the fork of the forklift truck under the pallet so that the centre of gravity is between the prongs.

  1. 1.
    Move the fork of the forklift truck under the pallet so that the hydraulic attachment cannot tip over.
  2. 2.
    Slowly lift the pallet with the hydraulic attachment.
  3. 3.
    Transport the pallet with the hydraulic attachment to the location provided for.

Hydraulic attachment tipping over / slipping

The hydraulic attachment slipping or tipping over and falling from the loading area of a lorry may cause serious injury.

  1. Place the hydraulic attachment on a pallet.

  2. Strap the hydraulic attachment to the pallet using suitable strapping (see illustration in chapter Transport using a forklift truck).

  3. Place the pallet with the hydraulic attachment on an anti-slip mat.

  4. Secure the hydraulic attachment to the loading area with ropes or chains; use any available transport lugs.

  1. 1.
