The Instructions provided in this manual are meant to supplement the recommendations of ASME
B30.20. Only trained, qualified persons should use the plate clamp.
STEP 1: Perform an EVERY LIFT INSPECTION as described in the INSPECTIONS & MAINTENANCE section of
this manual (p. 9). If the clamp is in SATISFACTORY CONDITION, connect the clamp to a hoist.
STEP 2: Connect the clamp to the
hoisting device. Only connect the
clamp to a safety hook—hook
with a latch that automatically
closes—to prevent accidental
detachment from the hoist.
STEP 3: Unlock the clamp by rotating the lock lever away from the clamp body (see photo 1). Move
the hoist above the sheet material. The sheet must balance when lifted, so position the clamp above
the center of the sheet. The center of the sheet is identified with a dashed line in photo 2. NOTE: The
sheet must weigh AT LEAST as much as the MINIMUM UNIFORM PLATE WEIGHT
(MUPW) of your clamp.
MUPW figures for all models are provided on p. 4. The plate thickness must be at least 25% of the
maximum jaw opening. See
SPECIFICATIONS, dimension A on p. 2. Using the clamp to only lift sheets of
the same thickness causes wear in a specific region of the gripper. The gripper has to be replaced
sooner as a result.
DO NOT attempt a horizontal lift.
Only lift vertically. Make horizontal adjustments
to the position of the clamp by moving the
hoist. DO NOT push or pull the clamp so that the
hoist chain/rope is not vertical. This is important
because any deflection of the chain/rope from
straight up-and-down will cause the load to
swing when lifted. A swinging load may cause
serious personal injuries.
STEP 4: Engage the sheet with the clamp. Press the clamp onto the top edge of the sheet. The top
edge of the sheet must touch the back of the clamp mouth (photos 4a – 4c). Lock the clamp by
rotating the lock lever towards the clamp body.
