Video in which I analyze the manual chain hoist and reproduce the most common accidents with this tool.


History:


The chain hoist and its potential risks

This video is not a safety course. They are observations and opinions of a worker

The chain hoist is an elevator that is equipped with pulleys and gears to reduce the effort when hoisting loads
Before exposing two great risks that this tool has a couple of notes about its operation
The hook and chain for raising and lowering loads...
Here are the gears to reduce the effort
This hoist is capable of lifting 1 tonne but, how much does it weigh? ...
The length of the chains will largely define the weight of the hoist
This is another hoist of another brand also 1 T with much longer chains
The weight of the hoist is doubled by having the longest chains
The clasps of the hooks, always in good condition
Safety boots, goggles, helmet, long clothing and gloves are essential for your safety
The risk is due to having to manipulate it near the loading zone...
If we hang the hoist in an inappropriate place ...
The hoist will fall, a roof, a beam, etc
Where we hang the hoist has to support the weight we lift
Another great risk is when the lower hook is suddenly released
