To prevent injury, do not exceed the rated load capacity of the machine. If the machine is not on level ground, load capacities will vary.
Refer to the load charts in the Operation and Maintenance Manual of the host machine. Use the load charts and account for the mass of the work tool. Calculate the load capacity relative to the location of the lifting point on your specific host machine.The lifting point has a maximum capacity. The capacity is marked on the lifting point or near the lifting point. Do not exceed the maximum capacity.Use a sling or a shackle to attach to the lifting point and lift the object. The sling or the shackle must have a rated capacity that is greater than the mass of the load.If the machine is equipped with the CE plate per requirements for the European Union, used to lift objects, then the machine must be equipped with the optional boom lowering control valve and an overload warning device.A fit for purpose test was completed in order to confirm that a properly equipped machine
