Safety & Installation Guidelines
- Use turnbuckles for straight or in-line pulling only.
- Avoid side loading, bending, and shock loading.
- Ensure sufficient thread engagement at both ends.
- Do not exceed the manufacturer’s rated load.
- Inspect threads, hooks, eyes, and the galvanized finish before use.
- Open hook fittings require special attention to prevent accidental disengagement.
Important: DIN 1480 dimensional conformity does not automatically establish a Working Load Limit, proof-load rating, or safety factor. Use for overhead lifting only where the complete assembly is specifically rated and approved by the manufacturer for that purpose.
