Model D4070/D4077 Electric Hoist
-7-
OPERATIONS
To use the electric hoist:
1. Plug the electric hoist into a
grounded 110V outlet.
2. Grab the lift hook and pull it away
from the hoist while using the control
switch to lower the hoist cable by
pressing the switch downward.
3. Verify the weight of the item to be
hoisted. Review the Specifications on
Page 3 to see if the operation can be
completed with a single or doubled-
back cable, as shown in Figure 8.
Never fully unwind the cable from
the electric hoist. Always leave at
least 3 turns of cable on the hoist
spool to prevent the cable from
detaching.
No list of safety guidelines is
complete, because every work
environment is different. Always
consider safety first and use common
sense. Failure to use this tool with
caution and respect could result in
serious personal injury.
4. Securely attach the item being lifted
by using the lift hook (for single
cable use) or the pulley lift hook (for
double cable use).
Never wrap the cable around the
item being lifted and hook it onto
the cable itself. Damage to the
object and fraying of the cable can
result.
5. Check that all bystanders are clear
and that the item has a clear path of
movement.
6. Use the control switch to retract the
cable. Watch the cable as it winds
up on the hoist spool. To prevent
damage to the hoist cable, make sure
that the cable is wound evenly, as
shown in Figure 9.
