6.1 Guide and anchor tests
Guide tests have the purpose of verifying stiffness under normal use and resistance to stress caused by
safety devices. Any point along the guide must be able to withstand the stiffness test described below:

move the machine away from the point where the test will be performed
 check the position of the guide on the vertical plane
 load the vehicle with a load equal to the capacity, equally distributed over the lift

verify that maximum guide rotation does not exceed 2° with respect to the horizontal plane
 unload the lift and move the machine away
 verify that the guide returns to the original position with a tolerance of 2mm (residual deformation)

verify anchor and bolted junction conditions on the parts making up the guide and the fastening
components
6.2 Strip test
This test was performed at the factory. In the event of later "on-site" adjustments, proceed as follows:
 place the strip in a raised position

apply a force of 150N at the end of the strip in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the strip
applied in the opening direction
 check that no points along the strip present deformations exceeding 30 mm (Strip deformation under
load)
 remove the force and verify that no parts are deformed permanently and check operation
6.3 Safety bar test
This test was performed at the factory. In the event of later "on-site" adjustments, proceed as follows:
 place the bar in a safe position
 at the end of the bar, apply a force of 100N in the vertical direction (downward) on the longer side
(before the beginning of the "L" curve)

verify that no points along the bar present deformation exceeding 50 mm (Deformation under
vertical load)
 remove the force and apply it in the horizontal direction (in the direction of the side opposite the
guide) (immediately after the beginning of the "L" curve)
 verify that deformations are smaller than 50 mm (Deformation under vertical load)
 check that no plastic deformation residue remains
 check bar functionality
