OZ Lifting Products CompOZite Davit Crane OM - Manual (Page 6)

pg.6
The safety lanyard is not designed to be load bearing. It CANNOT be used in place of the supplied ratchet binder.
At no point during a lift should the boom of the davit crane be lowered below horizontal position.
This safety lanyard is provided only as a convenient indicator to the operator of the davit crane. It WILL
NOT prevent the operator from misusing the davit crane. It is the responsibility of the operator to be familiar
with the safe operation of the product.
Installation
1. Install the safety lanyard onto the same pins that the ratchet binder uses to attach to the davit crane.
2. Ensure that the lynch pins are re-installed.
NOTE: Disassembly of the davit crane is not necessary for installation of this lanyard.
3. The pins require only a slight shift in order for the lanyard to attach to them securely.
Crane Pre-Installation
Check for damage during shipment. Do not install or use a damaged product. Be sure to maintain records
of product information and contact your OZ Lifting Products LLC ® dealer with any problems that arise.
Refer to applicable codes and regulations before installing equipment. Contact a qualified professional to
obtain structure and foundation specifications for product mounting.
Before installing, select a location where the crane is:
• Visible throughout its entire operation.
• Free of traffic and any possible operational interference.
• Positioned so the operator is clear of both the load and the path of the wire rope.
• Accessible for maintenance.
• Attached to a strong, level foundation that can properly support it under all conditions.
• Removed from any corrosive, flammable, explosive, or potentially damaging materials.
Installing the Base
NOTE: The accompanying base for the CompOZite Davit Crane is sold separately through OZ Lifting
Products LLC ® dealers. It is necessary for proper operation of this product.
The base must be securely fastened to the foundation using 5/8-inch coarse thread fasteners of at least
grade 5. A torque of 150 ft/lb should be used for grade 5 fasteners without lubrication.
Assure that mounting surface is located directly above a strong, level, solid foundation that supports the
crane under all circumstances.
Non-standard products that have been altered from the original design may require alternative fastening
requirements. Contact your OZ Lifting Products LLC ® dealer for more information
