W arning 1. Read and understand the entire owners manual before attempting assembly or operation. 2. Read and understand the warnings posted on the tool and in this manual. Failure to comply with all of these warnings may cause serious injury and/or damage to property. 3. Replace the warning labels if they become obscured or are missing. 4. Keep visitors a safe distance from the work area. Keep children away. 5. Give your work undivided attention. Looking around, carrying on a conversation and "horse-play" are careless acts that can result in serious injury. 6. This chain hoist is designed and intended for use by properly trained and experienced personnel only. If you are not familiar with the proper and safe operation of a chain hoist, do not use until proper training and knowledge have been obtained. 7. Do not use this chain hoist for other than its intended use. If used for other purposes, JET disclaims any real or implied warranty and holds itself harmless from any injury that may result from that use. 8. Do not use to lift people or loads over people. 9. Do not exceed the rated capacity of the chain hoist. 10. Do not use more than hand power to pull the hand chain. 11. Do not use the load chain as a sling; this may cause damage to the chain. 12. Always inspect the chain hoist for damage prior to use. If the chain hoist is damaged, do not use until it has been repaired or replaced. 13.
