FOREWORD HOISTING INSTRUCTIONS HOISTING INSTRUCTIONS HOISTING k Heavy parts (25 kg or more) must be lifted with a hoist, etc. In the DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY section, every part weighing 25 kg or more is indicated clearly with the symbol Slinging near the edge of the hook may cause the rope to slip off the hook during hoisting, and a serious accident can result. Hooks have max- imum strength at the middle portion. 4 If a part cannot be smoothly removed from the machine by hoisting, the following checks should be made: 1) Check for removal of all bolts fastening the part to the relative parts. 2) Check for existence of another part causing interference with the part to be removed.

WIRE ROPES 1) Use adequate ropes depending on the weight of parts to be hoisted, referring to the table below: k Slinging with one rope may cause turning of the load during hoisting, untwisting of the rope, or slipping of the rope from its original winding position on the load, which can result in a dangerous accident. Wire ropes (Standard "Z" or "S" twist ropes without galvanizing) 4) Do not sling a heavy load with ropes forming a wide hanging angle from the hook.
When hoisting a load with two or more ropes, the force subjected to each rope will increase with the hanging angles. The table below shows the variation of allowable load kN {kg} when hoisting is made with two ropes, each of which is allowed to sling up to 9.8 kN {1000 kg} vertically, at various hanging angles. When two ropes sling a load vertically, up to 19.6 kN {2000 kg} of total weight can be sus- pended. This weight becomes 9.8 kN {1000 kg} when two ropes make a 120° hanging angle. On the other hand, two ropes are subjected to an excessive force as large as 39.2 kN {4000 kg} if they sling a 19.6 kN {2000 kg} load at a lifting angle of 150°.
The allowable load value is estimated to be one- sixth or one-seventh of the breaking strength of the rope used. 2) Sling wire ropes from the middle portion of the hook. 00-7 Rope diameter Allowable load mm kN tons 10 11.5 12.5 14 16 18 20 22.4 30 40 50 60 9.8 13.7 15.7 21.6 27.5 35.3 43.1 54.9 98.1 176.5 274.6 392.2 1.0 1.4 1.6 2.2 2.8 3.6 4.4 5.6 10.0 18.0 28.0 40.0
