SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Vestil strives to identify all foreseeable hazards associated with the use of its products. However,
material handling is dangerous and no manual can address every conceivable risk. Ultimately, the most
effective way to prevent injury is to apply sound judgment whenever using this device.
Improper or careless use of this product might result in death or serious personal injuries.
• Read and understand the entire manual before using, inspecting, or servicing the plate clamp. DO
NOT use this device until you read and understand the entire instruction manual. Read the manual to
refresh your understanding of proper use and maintenance procedures. Review the instructions and
safety messages included in the manuals for your crane, trolley, hoist, and any other device used in
conjunction with the clamp. Use this device as instructed in this manual. You must also follow applicable
provisions of ASME B30.20 “Below-the-Hook Lifting Devices” (BTH), and all laws, regulations, codes, etc.
that apply to BTH devices where the clamp is used.
• Electrocution Risk: Avoid contact with live electrical wires
• DO NOT open the clamp while lifting or moving material. BEFORE opening the clamp be certain that
the sheet material is entirely supported by the ground or other surface, and is fully stabilized e.g. can’t
fall over, roll, slide, or move in an uncontrolled manner. If necessary, find a second help you immobilize
the material. DO NOT open the clamp while using it to lift or move sheet material.
• Inspect the plate clamp as instructed in INSPECTIONS AND MAITENANCE on p. 9. Acquire a copy of
the most recent revision of ASME B30.20. Apply all applicable inspection procedures in ASME B30.20.
• Properly maintain the plate clamp according to the maintenance procedures on p. 9 of the manual.
These procedures supplement the maintenance recommendations of ASME B30.20. If any instruction in
this manual conflicts with B30.20, then you should apply the provision in B30.20. DO NOT use this lifter if it
is damaged, malfunctioning, or missing parts.
• ALWAYS attach the plate clamp to a safety hook to prevent accidental/unintended detachment
from the hoist. DO NOT use a hoist hook that might accidentally/unintentionally release the clamp.
• DO NOT connect the clamp to a safety hook that does not function properly or that is damaged.
• Clean and dry the sheet material before attaching the plate clamp to it. In particular, clean the
material where the clamp will be attached. Debris on the surfaces of the sheet material could impair
the connection between the clamp and the material.
• Make sure that the path of travel is clear of debris and obstacles BEFORE picking up the load. Make
sure that no person is in the travel path.
• DO NOT lift and move a sheet of material unless it balances when suspended. Attach as many clamps
as necessary to balance the load while it is suspended. Load balancing is discussed in USING THE PLATE
CLAMP on p. 5-8. If a load cannot be balanced, do not use the lifter to elevate it.
• Only lift the topmost sheet of a stack. Make sure that there are no items on the sheet before lifting it.
• DO NOT attach the clamp to a side edge. ONLY attach the clamp to the top edge of a plate.
• DO NOT lift more than 1 sheet at a time.
• DO NOT lift a sheet from a horizontal position. LPC’s are vertical plate clamps. They must ONLY be
used to lift a plate as shown in the PROPER VERTICAL LIFT warning message of Step 3 on p. 6.
• DO NOT sit on or apply any load to the sheet material held by the clamp.
• DO NOT exceed the capacity of the clamp. Never attempt to lift material that weighs more than the
capacity of the clamp. Clamp capacity is provided on the data tag which is fastened to the face of
your clamp. See Data Tag in LABELING DIAGRAM on p. 7.
• DO NOT lift a load higher than necessary. See USING THE PLATE CLAMP on p. 5-8.
• DO NOT raise the load over your feet or any other part of your body.
• DO NOT lift people or carry material over people. DO NOT lift any apparatus supporting/carrying
people such as a work platform. The clamp must ONLY be used to lift single sheets of material.
• DO NOT get in front of or behind a suspended load while moving it. Stand to one side of the load.
Grasp the safety hook of your hoist with one hand to stabilize the material. Keep feet out from
underneath the load at all times. Clothing must not become entangled in the load or the lifter.
• Keep an eye on the load at all times while it is attached to the clamp.
• DO NOT leave suspended material unattended. Move the load to the unloading location, land the
load, and store the clamp before leaving it.
• Referring to American National Standard ASME BTH-1, this clamp is BTH design category B (loads and
variations which are severe and not accurately defined), service class 1 (20,001 to 100,000 load cycles).
