1000 kg load<br />
This shows the effect of increasing the included angle in slings.You<br />
will see that, with an included angle of 170°, the load on each sling<br />
is six times the actual weight being lifted.<br />
Do NOT exceed the 120° included angle which provides each sling<br />
with the same weight as the actual load.
