Securement Question

That's because the WLL is just fine. It was stated that these things weighed 900 lbs apiece so 7200 lbs total. With 2 chains you are covering the WLL requirement by over 100%

 

4 chains.. did you not read my first post?

 

4 chains,... 4 binders. Thats what I used.

2 chains.. per side.

 

We haul a lot of Genie scissors out of North Bend. My company is ok with using one chain for multiple units but insists that the chain goes to the deck between each lift.

The problem I've had doing it this way is getting all the slack out of the middle of the chain.

Your way at least took care of that problem.

 

I agree with you, too many bends like that make it hard to get tight.

 

Nice hood Hurst, you going for the Carbon Fiber look ? Lol

 

The No Parking one on your name

 

Hurst,it was just a question in this debate you started.
No need to get defensive.

 

If you're going to hang around you might as well get used to that.

 

Those do not weigh 900 each. The first one in the picture is a Snorkel Lift s3219e, you can see the model number. The gross weight of that model is 1564 KG= Just over 3,000 pounds.
