Operation Manual
brand lifting clamps are energy-saving lifting equipment
which have been developed for the purpose of transporting steel
materials.
Operate lifting clamps after carefully reading and understanding
this instruction manual for enhancing efficiency and safety of
operation.
We conduct a pulling test with a load three times (or twice) of rated
capacity and a manufacturing serial number is marked on each
product, thus directing a special attention to safety.
Advanced functions, reasonableness and versatile applications
of finely and carefully designedlifting clamps ensure
prime efficiency and economy.

Precautions for safety operation
Be sure to read this instruction manual carefully
before use.
(Pages 1〜10 are comon to all lifting clamp models)
Mistaken use of lifting clamp may cause a danger such as dropping of
load.
Education of “crane safety regulations,” “operation manual for lifting
clamp,” “your company’s operation standards,” etc. should be given
before actual operation not only to business owners who have
purchased clamps but also to their operators to ensure that actual oper-
ators have acquired enough knowledge, safety information, and
precautions of the clamps.
Safety precautions are divided into two classifications in this manual;
“Warning” and “Caution,”.
WARNING:
CAUTION:
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in medium
damage or slight injury, or could result in prop-
erty damage.
While only mentioned in CAUTION, failure to comply with them still
may lead to a serious disaster. As such, do not fail to pay attention both
to WARNING and CAUTION which are of great importance.
The sign of indicates prohibited actions.
The sign of indicates that an action is enforced or instructed.
Meanings of Signs
The signs of and indicate that precautions should be taken.
The contents of warning or caution are described at each sign.

Stop the lifting operation by crane for a moment when the
load is applied to the lifting ring for safety checking. (depth of
the load into the clamp opening; status of locking).
Stop the operation of the crane just before the load reaches
the ground, and check the following matters: (Inclination or
falling over of the load and security around the landing area
of the load)
CAUTION

5. Maintenance, storage and alteration
Persons with specialized knowledge designated by the
business owner are to conduct maintenance and repairing work.
When any abnormality with the clamp is found, do not use it
and immediately repair or dispose.
Remove, if any, paint or mud sticking to the moving parts of
the clamp, cams, and pads.
Never alter the clamp and its accessories.
Do not apply welding or heat to the clamp or its accessories.
Do not use any other parts than our company’s genuine parts.
Clamps which require the repair should be stored at a differ-
ent place so that they are not used mistakenly.
Raising and lowering operation by crane should be done slowly
and carefully.
Do not operate the crane in such a way as to drag the load
along the ground.
Do not leave the crane (or winder, etc.) unattended from an
operating position while keeping the load lifted with the clamp.

General warning for use(comon to all lifting clamp models)
■
Be sure to select proper model clamps for use.
Pay special attentions to keep the lifting direction (rope angle).
Confirm the weight of the load. Do not exceed maximum capacity
(designated ton) on clamps. (Never overload.)
Before use, confirm followings:
(a) Proper capacity of clamps.
(b) No abnormal movements of clamp or loosening of any bolts.
(c) No oil or other foreign matters on the surface of the cam and pad.
Never use for load beyond the clamp range.
When installing clamps, insert a lifting load completely until it comes in
contact with the deepest of the jaw opening of main body.
Depending on the model or capacity of the clamp, the cam teeth
may not bite a load sufficiently when the load is a hard or light
weight material (Less than 1/5 of maximum capacity or less than
1/4 of maximum clamp range). Confirm the condition of clamp for
safety.
Confirm that the safety lock is completely engaged in case clamp has a
built-in lock.
Confirm that the load is well balanced. Determine the clamp position or
the center of gravity of the rope properly. It is especially important to
determine the horizontal center of gravity.
When lifting at 2 points, be sure to use two wire ropes, and make them
equal length. (Fig. A)

Never lift two or more steel plates or steel members at a time.
The load may move to an unexpected direction when lifted off the
ground and as such confirm the center of gravity and the clamping posi-
tion for safety when raising. Sufficient caution should be taken until the
clamp with the load becomes completely balanced.
When changing directions of the load or any similar operations, all
personnel must be clear of the area of operation. (Fig. C)
Do not ride on the lifting load.
Never use clamp for riding or carrying
person.
Before operation, the surface of load must always be clean and
free of scale, coatings or other foreign matters that will reduce
clamping force significantly.
When raising, special attention must be given to prevent the rope
from loosening by its unintended contact with any other objects.
When raising again after the load is put on ground, reconfirm the clamp
condition.
Do not use clamp for heated load or in a corrosion liquid because safety
factor and durability will be reduced in such conditions.
Do not alter clamp by welding, cutting by gas or by any other modifica-
tion.
Do not weld electrically a load while being lifted by clamp.
Conduct daily maintenance and lubrication.

2. Periodic Inspection
Daily maintenance is important for efficient and safe operation even
under the severe use condition and for such purposes, please comply
with the followings.
(1) Designate the use standards and control.
(2) Keep clamps indoor and do not leave them outdoor.
(3) Check the followings to maintain in a good condition.
(a) Operating condition.
(b) Any abrasion, damage, or clogging at teeth of cam and pad.
(c) Deformation of main body - at jaw opening in particular.
(4) Separate conforming clamps and other hazardous items identified
during use or inspection and designate the defective sections.
Perform maintenance any soon.
(5) For the storage, place soft material as wooden chip in-between cam
and pad to protect the teeth.
(6) Perform inspection and maintenance once a week by referring to
“Inspection Standards”. Lubricate sliding sections periodically.
(However, remove oil at teeth of cam and pad.)
Perform periodic inspection in accordance with the periodic inspection
and maintenance standards. Functions and life of clamps may differ in
a great degree as they are used in varieties of fields under different
conditions of use. Therefore, preparation and practice of effective
handling/inspection standards manual by users themselves are recom-
mended. We ask you to establish complete maintenance and control for
assurance of safety in reference to our Manufacturer’s Inspection Stan-
dards of our clamp. Clamp is designed for easy replacement of parts
and therefore, do not fail to replace defective parts. Also, keeping spare
parts at all times is recommended. For your preparation of the stan-
dards, pay special attention to the followings.
(1) Operation and maintenance standards
(a) Preparation of use criteria (shape of load and operating methods).
(b) Thorough understanding and compliance of cautions on handling.
(c) Maintenance and storage.
