The American Society of Mechanical Engineers, in the Sling Safety Standard, ASME B30.9-2006, clearly establishes the requirement for training. Sections 9-5.1 and 9-6.1-Training states, “Synthetic webbing and round sling users shall be trained in the selection, inspection, cautions to personnel, effects of the environment and rigging practices, covered by this chapter.”
The Warning Icon, used throughout our publication is done to alert sling users to potentially hazardous conditions and situations.
 All Products supplied and manufactured by Lift-It® Manufacturing are sold with express understanding that the purchaser and user are thoroughly familiar with the safe and proper use and application of the product.

 Failure to follow proper use, care and inspection criteria could result in severe personal injury or death. It is your explicit responsibility to consider all risk factors prior to using any rigging device or product. Read and understand the information contained in this publication and follow OSHA and ASME guidelines. Use by untrained persons is hazardous. Synthetic products will fail if damaged, abused, misused, overused, or improperly maintained. A visual inspection of the sling must be made every time this sling is to be used. Slings that are damaged or determined to be unsafe shall not be used for any application. If the work load limit tag is missing, illegible or incomplete the sling shall not be used. Do not exceed work load limits. You are cautioned that all published work load limits and break strengths apply to only new and unused slings, assemblies and hardware. Work Load Limits are based upon: destruction testing, done in controlled, laboratory conditions, which will never be duplicated during actual usage and a moderately dynamic lifting or pulling operation. Instantaneous changes (drops or sudden pick ups) in excess of 10% of the work load, constitutes hazardous shock loading and THE WORKING LOAD LIMITS AS STATED, DO NOT APPLY. |
