KITO L5 Model «Shipyard»
- Special made for use in the shipbuilding industry, and other industries where the hoist are being used as an assembly tool for steel constructions
- Available in the capacities 1,6T and 3,2T
- Hooks on standard chain lever hoists are not constructed to load hook tip against plate edges etc.
- This is written in the user manual that comes with the product
- Loading with hooks this way will result in the hook needing replacement because of deformation
- Chain lever hoists is often used in operations where the hook tip needs loading to pull together objects
- Something which is again very risky, and can cause the operator to damage the hoist
- To solve this problem KITO has developed a special hook that is approved to perform this type of operation
- With KITO L5 “shipyard” it is allowed to use to hook against plate edges, and the hooks will not be deformed under the allowed work loading
