Troubleshooting

Hook not securely holding chain

Ensure the correct 16MM chain size is used and the chain link is fully seated within the grab hook's throat. Inspect both the chain and hook for wear or damage that might prevent a secure grip.

Difficulty attaching chain to hook

Verify that you are using a 16MM chain. If the chain is new or has been stored improperly, check for any stiffness or minor deformations. Ensure no debris is obstructing the hook's opening.

Suspected damage to the hook

Immediately cease use and remove the hook from service. Inspect thoroughly for cracks, bending, or excessive wear. Contact the supplier if replacement is needed.
