6. Starting the Diesel Hammer<br />
6.5 Lifting of piles<br />
Follow the operating instructions of the carrier<br />
equipment.<br />
Use only approved wire rope in accordance<br />
with Chapter 4.2 “Transport cables”.<br />
Observe the following information to prevent<br />
an overturning of the unit and damage to the<br />
lead and material to be driven.<br />
PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) that is<br />
required to perform any and all work shall be<br />
provided by your employer to safely perform<br />
this task. You must wear a life vest when<br />
working over water surfaces.<br />
Never pull the material to be driven from the lead<br />
tip. This may cause an overturning of the carrier<br />
unit or may bend the lead end.<br />
Always turn the unit in the direction of the impact<br />
point of the material to be driven. The inclined<br />
pulling force may cause the unit to overturn.<br />
The material to be driven must always be lifted in<br />
such a manner that:<br />
• there is no permanent deformation,<br />
• no cracks form in the material to be driven,<br />
• the material to be driven hangs vertically<br />
after lifting it.<br />
Never lift piles attached to the hammer using<br />
only one line. Always use a separate pile line.<br />
