Fitting the chock without lifting the drum
- Set the drum down on level, load-bearing ground while it is still held by the crane chains.
- Pull both halves of the chock apart and slide them sideways under the flange rims.
- Push them together to fit and lock with the linchpin; add a padlock if required.

Goes well with
- Padlock for the cable drum chock (item no. DD-SCHK-E1VHB-L63) – theft deterrent
- Outrigger pads for soft ground
- Heavy-duty wheel chock as additional protection
- Steel storage bay signs for fixed storage bays

When the cable drum chock must not be used
- Never without the linchpin, and never with a substitute instead of the original pin.
- Not on steeply sloping ground.
- On very soft ground the chock can sink in – place load-spreading pads underneath first.
- Never above the permissible drum weight (2,000 kg or 7,500 kg per chock).
FAQ: cable drum chock
Which cable drum chock fits my drum?

All three values must be within the range of the chosen version.

Can I secure a drum on site without a drum stand?
Yes. The chock slides directly under the flange rim while the drum stands on the ground. No drum stand is needed.
What is the difference between a drum chock and a drum stand?
A drum stand or jack lifts the drum so that it can turn for unwinding. The cable drum chock holds a standing drum in place so that it cannot roll away.
Is there a lockable drum chock to deter theft?
Yes, the chock is prepared for a padlock; the padlock is available separately.
Note: Employers must assess the hazards of storing and handling cable drums and define suitable protective measures in line with the occupational safety regulations of their country, taking the manufacturer’s instructions into account. This page is not legal advice; please involve your occupational safety specialist.
