Synthetic Sling Use & Care

A synthetic sling is a specialized tool and it should be treated like any other specialized tool. Proper use and care of your sling can ensure a most effective life for you, your load, and your sling.

1. Know the weight of the load and choose a sling with the proper rated capacity

2. Use a sling with characteristics meant for the type of load, hitch and environment with which you are working.

3. Never load a sling in excess of its rated capacity.

4. Never tie or knot a sling, or use a sling with a knot in it.

5. Protect the sling from being cut by sharp corners, edges and abrasive surfaces by using wear pads or sleeves.

6. Make sure the sling is securely attached to the load.

7. Do not stand near or under a suspended load and keep it clear of other obstructions.

8. Do not drag a sling across the floor, over abrasive surfaces, or from under a load.

9. Don’t shock (jerk) load when lifting.

10. Take damaged slings out of service immediately.

11. Store slings on a protected rack or in the tool room.
