The entire company works acc. to a certified quality assurance system as per ISO 9001.
The production of components at our work is subject to strict, intermediate checks.
After assembly, each product is subject to a final test with overload.
For the operation of hoists, the national accident prevention regulations apply in Germany, amongst others.
The stated performance of the devices and meeting any warranty claims require adherence to all instructions
in this manual.
Before delivery, all products are packed properly. Check the goods after receipt for any damage caused

2.2 Duty of care of the owner
DANGER!
Failure to follow the instructions of this manual can lead to unpredictable hazards.
For any resulting damage or personal injury, HADEF assumes no liability.
The unit was designed and built following a risk analysis and careful selection of the harmonized standards
that are to be complied with, as well as other technical specifications. It therefore represents state-of-the-art
technology and provides the highest degree of safety.
Our delivery includes the hoist supplied beginning at its suspension and ending at the load hook and if
supplied with control, the control line/hose that leads to the hoist. Further operating material, tools, load
attaching devices as well as main energy supply lines must be assembled according to the valid rules and
regulations. For explosion-proof equipment, all these parts must be approved for use in area prone to
explosion, or they must be suitable for use in area prone to explosion. The owner is responsible for this.
However, in everyday operation this degree of safety can only be achieved if all measures required are
taken. It falls within the duty of care of the owner/user of the devices to plan these measures and to check
that they are being complied with.
Complete the operating and installation instructions by any instructions (regarding supervision or
notifications)that are important for the special kind of use of the equipment, i.e. regarding organization of
work, work flow and human resources.
In particular, the owner/user must ensure that:
The unit is only used appropriately.
The device is only operated in a fault-free, fully functional condition, and the safety components, in
particular, are checked regularly to ensure that it is functioning properly.
The required personal protective equipment for the operators, service and repair personnel is available
and is used.
The operating instructions are always available at the location where the equipment is used and that they
are legible and complete.
The unit is only operated, serviced and repaired by qualified and authorized personnel.
This personnel is regularly trained in all applicable matters regarding safety at work and environmental
protection, and that they are familiar with the operating manual and, in particular, the safety instructions it
contains.
Any safety and warning signs on the devices are not removed and remain legible.
Devices for use in area prone to explosion must (from customer's side) be earthed with a shunting
resistor of < 106 Ω against earth.
WARNING!
It is not allowed to make constructive changes of the equipment!
DANGER!
In order to avoid severe injury, please pay attention to the following when using the equipment:
Use protective clothes/equipment.
Do not wear long hair hanging down open.
Do not wear rings or other jewelry.
Do not wear clothes that are too big/wide.
Do not reach into ropes, chains, drive parts or other moving parts with your hands

2.4 Appropriate use
Horizontal movement on beams.
The permitted safe working load of the devices must not be exceeded! An exception can be made during
the load test before first start-up, carried out by a licensed expert.
The permitted environmental temperature during equipment operation is –10°C up to +50°C!
Defective devices and load suspension devices must not be used until they have been repaired! Only
original spare parts must be used. Non-compliance will result in any warranty claims on HADEF
becoming void.
Liability and warranty will become void if unauthorized modifications of the units are made!
DANGER!
It is not allowed:
pulling loose of stuck loads, dragging of loads and inclined pulling is not allowed.
in explosive atmosphere, except the unit is especially modified for it and marked by an indication label
In reactor containment vessels.
to transport people
The device is not suitable for use on stages and in studios
persons must not stand under a suspended load
NOTICE!
If the units are not used appropriately, it is not possible to ensure safe operation.
The owner and operator have sole liability for all personal injury and damage to property arising from
inappropriate use.
3.1 Transport
The devices are checked and if so adequately packed before delivery.
Do not throw or drop the equipment.
Use adequate means of transport.
Transport and means of transport must be suitable for the local conditions.
NOTICE!
Should a safety device for transport exist, please remove it before commissioning.
3.3 Storage
Store the equipment at a clean and dry place.
Protect the equipment against dirt, humidity and damage by an appropriate cover.
Protect hooks, wire ropes, chains and brakes against corrosion.

6 Installation
The assembly and installation depends on the local environment. The hoist must be suspended in a way that
it can position itself freely.
6.1 Trolley
For assembly on a beam a travel limit must be placed at either end of the track.
This must be attached so that any elastic limitation buffer or the trolley wheels are driven against them in
their end position when moving.
Generally, additional lifting gear (e.g. fork lift, lifting platforms) will be required for the assembly. These must
take the weight of the devices securely.
5.52.122.00.01.02 7
6.2 Adjusting the gauge
The trolley can be adjusted to various beam flange widths. Setting to the relevant beam flange width “B” is to
be made as follows:
CAUTION!
It is important that the load hangs in the middle under the beam so that the two side plates are equally
loaded.
CAUTION!
The distance "X" between the wheel flanges of the trolley wheels must exceed the flange width "B" of the
beam by 2-3 mm (1-1,5 mm each side).

7 Operation
Only people that are familiar with the operation of the lifting devices and cranes may be entrusted with their
operation. They must be authorized by the employer for the operation of the equipment. The employer must
ensure that the operating instructions are available near the equipment and that they are accessible for the
operating personnel.
Monorail push travel trolleys are moved by pushing the load.
Monorail hand geared trolleys are moved by pulling the hand chain.
7.1 General
Should the unit be used in Germany:
Please observe the validated, national accident prevention regulations.
For other countries:
Inspections as above. Please observe the national rules and regulations and the instructions in this manual!
NOTICE!
Hoists up to 1000 kg capacity and without motor-driven trolleys of hoisting unit must be tested by a “qualified
person” before putting into operation for the first time.
Hoists of 1000 kg capacity and up or with more than one motor-driven hoist movement; i.e. lifting and trolley
movement, must be tested by a “licensed qualified person” before putting in operation.
An exception is “hoists ready for operation” acc. validated national regulations with EU-declaration of
conformity.
Definition “qualified person” (former expert)
A “qualified person” has learned, due to occupational training and experience and the job that the person has
done, the skills needed to tests the material for one’s work.
Definition “licensed qualified person” (former approved expert)
A “licensed qualified person” has, due through special occupational training, knowledge about testing of the
material for one’s work and knows the national accident prevention regulations and other prescriptions and
technical regulations. This person must test the material for one’s work regularly with regard to design and
kind of use. The license will be given to qualified person be the approved supervision authorities (ZÜS).
8 Safety check
Before putting into service initially or when putting back into service, it must be checked whether:
All fastening screws (if existent), socket pins, flap socket and safety devices are tightened and secured.
