DHOLLANDIA
hydraulic ramps are designed to transfer
wheeled equipment or machinery from the ground to the
floor of the carrying vehicle, and vice versa.
•
The correct use requires that the platform point and the
mechanical support legs under the platforms are in firm
contact with the ground.
•
All other use of the ramp is strictly forbidden:
→
Except the ramp model DH-AR4…, it is not allowed to
use the ramp at loading docks, or any other surface
elevated from the ground.
→
It is not allowed to load the platform while its point or
mechanical support legs are still hanging in the air,
and are not in firm contact with the ground.
•
Disregard of the load constraints could potentially cause
premature failure of the equipment, or result in serious
accidents with personal injuries
•
Hydraulic ramps have no specific load curve as for tail
lifts. But the following constraints should be strictly ob-
served:
→
The total weight applied to the platform must never
exceed its nominal capacity [see Fig. 5.1 - 5.2], divid-
ed over
min. 4
wheels.
→
In case of machines on
3
wheels, with 1 wheel posi-
tioned centrally, the total weight applied must be lim-
ited to 75% of the nominal capacity. [See Fig. 5.3].
Platforms for extreme point loads exceeding this 75%
constraint, are available as an option (S427).
