TWO POINT HOIST - ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
SPECIFICATIONS & OPERATION
MAXIMUM LIFTING LOAD 60 LBS
MINIMUM LIFTING LOAD 15 LBS (SEE FURTHER INFO BELOW)
MAXIMUM VERTICAL LIFT 16 FT (SEE FURTHER INFO BELOW)
MECHANICAL ADVANTAGE 3:1
THE UNIQUENESS OF THIS HOIST SYSTEM IS THE SELF-LOCKING SAFETY CLEAT. IT HAS A SPRING LOADED ARM
WHICH HOLDS THE CORD IN PLACE WHEN UNATTENDED.
WHEN RAISING AN ITEM, THE CORD SLIDES PAST THE ARM. WHEN THE CORD IS RELEASED, THE SPRING LOADED
ARM'S TEETH PRESSES AGAINST THE CORD, HOLDING THE CORD IN PLACE.
TO LOWER AN ITEM, 1) YOU MUST STAND AWAY AND THIS "OPENS" THE SAFETY ARM AND 2) THEN WHEN THE ARM IS
OPEN, YOU SLOWLY RELEASE THE CORD, ALLOWING IT TO "SLIDE" PAST THE ARM'S TEETH. THIS IS WHY A 15 LB.
MINIMUM LOAD IS REQUIRED. ie. LESS THAN 15 LBS OF TENSION WILL NOT OPEN THE SPRING LOADED CLEAT.
THE LENGTH OF THE HOISTING (PULL) CORD IS 35 FT AND THE STRAP ASSEMBLY IS APPROXIMATELY 2 FT. THE
MAXIMUM VERTICAL LIFT DISTANCE IS DEFINED AS 16 FT AND CAN BE USED IN A GARAGE WITH 18 FT HIGH CEILINGS.

SYSTEM SETUP
STEP #5: PLACE THE OBJECT TO BE HOISTED UNDER THE RING HOOKS AND TIE THE DROP CORDS TO THE
STRAPS. TRY TO TIE THE STRAPS ONTO THE DROP CORDS AT THE SAME HEIGHT.
STEP #6: FASTEN THE STRAPS TO THE OBJECT TO BE LIFTED AND ADJUST THE STRAP LENGTHS AS
NEEDED SO THE LOAD IS LEVEL.
STEP #7: SLOWLY PULL THE RAISING CORD TO CHECK THE LOAD IS LEVEL. (BOTH DROP ROPES MUST
HAVE EQUAL TENSION SO THE LOAD REMAINS LEVEL WHEN LOWERING OR RAISING.) THE METHOD USED
TO RAISE OR LOWER AND OBJECT IS SHOWN / EXPLAINED ON PAGE 2.
