The dangers of hanging hand chain hoist at an angle

For most lifting tools, it is strictly prohibited to pull them at an angle during use. The same is true for hand chain hoists. If used incorrectly during use, it will not only cause damage to the equipment, but may also cause harm to the operator. So what are the consequences of using a hand chain hoist for tilted lifting?

1. Cause damage to equipment. Tilting the hoist will change the stress angle of the hand chain hoist parts, causing the parts to bear greater pulling force and aggravating the wear between parts. Long-term use like this will cause damage to the internal parts of the hand chain hoist, leading to equipment scrapping.

2. Cause damage to heavy objects. If the hand chain hoist is pulled crookedly, the heavy object will swing when it leaves the ground, which is very dangerous. Once the heavy object shakes during the lifting process, there is a risk of falling, causing damage to the heavy object.

3. The operator is injured. If the equipment is pulled or lifted crookedly, the equipment may be damaged and heavy objects may be shaken, which may cause the suspended heavy objects to fall. If the operator is not careful, he or she may be injured.

Many accidents occur due to human factors. Therefore, when we use a hand chain hoist, we must operate it in a standardized manner and use it correctly to ensure that the operation proceeds normally.
