Green Pin Tycan® Lifting Chain safer improvedworking efficiency Green Pin Tycan® has been created from the world's strongest man-made fibre, Dyneema®, and is a link chain that has all the performance and flexibility of steel chain but is a fraction of the weight. It is very safe to use, non-corrosive and waterproof. In fact, it even floats! The soft touch and light weight makes Green Pin Tycan® easy to use, allows quicker application and greatly reduces the potential of damage to cargo, a critical factor when handling objects with sensitive surfaces. By using Green Pin Tycan® companies achieve greater efficiency and a safer working environment for their staff. Quality assurance • Every chain length is proof load tested to 2 times Working Load Limit (WLL). • Visual inspection is carried out on each chain link to detect possible defects. • A 5-link sample of every 1000 meters (0.62 miles) produced is tested to destruction to confirm MBL. • Green Pin Tycan® has a DNV Type Approval. • Declaration of conformity to the Machinery Directive 2006/42/ EC with relevant CE marking. Where and how can Green Pin Tycan® Lifting Chain be used • Green Pin Tycan® Lifting Chain is a general purpose lifting chain that can be used within the limits as set forth in this user manual. • Green Pin Tycan® Lifting Chain can be used in min/max environmental temperatures, but should not be exposed to temperatures above +70°C (158°F). • Green Pin Tycan® Lifting Chain is able to lift loads safely only up to the designated WLL, but never exceeded. • Green Pin Tycan® Lifting Chain is able to lift loads safely only when the relevant load reduction factor is taken into account. Do not exceed the WLL. • Green Pin Tycan® Lifting Chain can be used on land, at sea and in a subsea environment. • Green Pin Tycan® Lifting Chain should be used under static or near-static conditions. User manual Material: Made with 100% Dyneema®; layers of webbing in a Mobius twist with stitching on each side Safety Factor: MBL equals 4 x WLL * Only sizes below 40 mm Verification before first use Before first use of Green Pin Tycan® Lifting Chain it should be ensured 'that': • Green Pin Tycan® Lifting Chain meets the exact requirements specified in the order. • The valid manufacturer certificate and CE declaration are available for examination and/or verification. • Ensure that manufacturer's label(s) are present and legible and that the label(s) contain the same information as the manufacturer's certification. • The users of the sling have received appropriate instruction and training. Verification before each use • Check Green Pin Tycan® Lifting Chain for any damage, defects or missing ID tags prior to each use. Never use damaged Green Pin Tycan® Lifting Chain. • Connect Green Pin Tycan® Lifting Chain to recommended components as mentioned further in this manual or to certified components with a maximum surface roughness of 5 microns and adhering to below values: ik lifting minimum minimum maximum :e capacity pin diameter clevis width clevis width

Green Pin Tycan® Lifting Chain must be inspected before each use and if any damage is detected removed from service. See Inspection and Removal from Service Criteria. Ensure that Green Pin Tycan® Lifting Chain is rigged according to the load, the planned lift and according to the boundary conditions set forth in the user manual. Ensure load reduction factors are calculated and planned for according to charts and tables further in this manual. Use Green Pin Tycan® Lifting Chain only with a minimum number of 5 load bearing links per sling leg. A limited twist of 0.50 turns per meter (per 3.28 feet)...

Instructions for use In case of contact between Green Pin Tycan® Lifting Chain and the load or operating material, protective sleeves must be used when the surface edge is “less” than 6mm radius. Edge radius more than 6mm: No protective sleeve required but recommended Green Pin Tycan® Lifting Chain Edge radius less than 6mm: Protective sleeve required No obvious edge radius or in doubt: Protective sleeve required Edges that are in contact with Green Pin Tycan® Lifting Chain must be checked for sufficient radius. A radius gauge is a good way to verify this. If in doubt, a protective sleeve should...
