Important Fact
Any product is only as strong as its weakest component. It is the owner’s and/or user’s responsibility to determine which product is suitable for each particular use. You must check all applicable Federal, State, Local, and Industry rules and regulations to insure you are operating within the current guidelines. All of the “Rated Capacities” are generally established and/or regulated by Industry or Legislative standards that may vary from State to State and/or Industry to Industry. It is highly recommended that you learn the laws, guidelines, and regulations that you are subject to in your State and Industry.
