I have to mark the Safe Working Load on a monorail structure.
The structure was certified by an engineer for 2 t.
However, the hoist on the track only has a 1.5 t capacity.
I am afraid that if I mark "SWL=2t" on the track someone could overload the hoist.

What does the code say? Any advice is welcome.

Thanks
M
