Ratchet leverhoists

Ratchet lever hoists for lifting,pulling, lashing and tensioningYale Hand Lever Hoists are versatile, portable unitsfor pulling, tensioning, lashing and lifting of loads.The operation of the Hand Lever hoists is easy andsafe.Light weight, robust malleable cast iron model,free chaining, slip clutch, stamped steel- oraluminium housing, low operating effort - in theYale product range you will always find an optimalhoist for every type of operation.The brake system of all Yale hand lever hoists arebased on the original Yale patent of the Britishengineer Thomas A. Weston dating back to 1875.All parts of the load brake are made of high qualitymaterials and are protected against corrosion. Theengineering principle behind the load brake findsits rightful place in all hand lever hoists world wide.Yale exclusively uses asbestos free friction discsin all their hoists. The surface protected zincplated alloy steel chains fulfil all the requirementsof national and international standards andregulations. In accordance with safety regulations,the chain stops are designed to withstand doublethe rated capacity to ensure the chain does notunintentionally run free.The drop forged load and suspension hooks thatyield under overload instead of breaking, are madeof high tensile steel and are standard for all Yalehoists. The hooks are fitted with robust safetylatches and rotate 360°. Every Yale ratchet leverhoist is factory tested with overload.The units are supplied with a test certificateshowing the serial-No. Operating instructions whichcontain an EC declaration of conformity are alsoattached to each unit.

Ratchetlever hoistsUNO

Ratchet lever hoist model UNOCapacities 750 - 6.000 kg

A hand lever hoist with a robust stamped steelconstruction and compact design. It comesequipped with a hard chromium plated hand wheeland a sturdy bottom block with encapsulated boltconnections to prevent shearing and loosening ofnuts. The Chain guide is integrated into the housingto eliminate fouling and jamming of the chain onthe load sheave. Due to optimized gearing aminimum effort is required to operate the shorthand lever. The standard free chaining deviceserves to quickly attach the load or to pull the chainthrough the hoist in both directions. The low tareweight and a smooth free-chaining device make theUNO a handy, universal tool.

Free chainingYale lever hoists are either fitted with the freechaining feature as standard or it can beretrofitted in the field. With the free chainingfeature the load chain can be pulled freelythrough the hoist (in both lifting and loweringdirections). The advantage is that with highlifting heights the load chain can be quicklypulled through the hoist to achieve the requiredchain length and pretension.All free chaining devices fitted to Yale hoistsoperate automatically, this means that when aload is applied or exceeds a defined value thescrew and disc type brake operates and holdsthe load safely.

Ratchetlever hoistsYalehandy

Ratchet lever hoist YalehandyCapacities 250 - 500 kg

This hoist is the smallest, lightest Yale ratchet leverhoist for professional applications. Due to the multitudeof application possibilities this new ratchet lever hoist isan indispensable tool e.g. in industry, trade and service.The extreme low tare weight and the very compactdesign make the hoist easy to use even in confinedworking conditions. The enclosed design protects theinternal parts against the ingress of dust, foreignparticles and corrosion. The short and ergonomic handlever makes the hoist easy to operate. The standardfree chaining device serves to quickly attach the load orto pull the chain through the hoist in both directions.The drop forged suspension and load hooks that yieldunder overload instead of breaking are made from non-ageing, high tensile alloy steel. The hooks are fitted withrobust safety latches and are free to rotate 360°.All parts of the disc type load brake are manufacturedfrom high quality materials and are corrosion protected.
