The following safety devices are used to protect against overload situations and to prevent engine
failure.
In the event of an overload, the safety valve opens and discharges the oil directly to the tank (see
fi gure 8).
Each cylinder is equipped with a parachute valve; in case of malfunction or breakage of the oil
line in the circuit, the corresponding parachute valve is activated and limits the descent speed of
the platforms. (see fi gure 9).
The safety tooth and the gear module are parts that guarantee the safety of the personnel under
the machine in case of failure of the other protections. Therefore, make sure that the gear module
is intact and that the safety tooth is completely enclosed.
Nothing should be left on the safety modules to prevent the safety tooth from occluding normally.

RISK FOR PERSONNEL
All potential hazards to the operator, service technician, installer and any other person in
the area of the elevator’s operation result from improper use of the elevator.
OPERATING HAZARDS
When raising and lowering the elevator, personnel must position themselves in the safety
zone according to the rules and instructions provided.
During raising and lowering, no person is allowed to work under the moving parts of the
elevator, but must work within the safe area. (Figure 5)
RISK OF IMPACT (Figure 10)
Before starting to raise and lower the elevator, the operator must ensure that there are
no people in the danger zone. When, for operational reasons, the elevator is stopped at a
relatively low height (less than 1.75 meters above the ground), care must be taken to avoid
any impact with machine parts not marked with special colors.
