Please observe the following safety instructions:
Fire brigade snap hooks are used for connecting and securing loads or equipment. To ensure safe use, the following instructions should be observed:
1. Intended Application and Suitability
- Fire brigade snap hooks must only be used for their intended applications.
- Before use, ensure that the snap hook is suitable for the intended load and specific application.
- Observe the specified maximum lifting capacity. This must not be exceeded.
2. Before Use
- Inspect for damage: Check the snap hook for visible defects such as cracks, deformation or corrosion. Damaged snap hooks must not be used.
- Check operation: Ensure that the gate mechanism operates smoothly and closes completely.
- Verify compatibility: Check that the snap hook is compatible with the equipment being used.
3. Use
- Ensure that the snap hook is fully closed before being loaded. An incompletely closed snap hook may create a hazardous situation.
