5.3. Operating procedures
The regular operating procedures that the user must perform upon the LP are described below.
a. Start up
- Check the control unit’s compressed air supply.
- Check the compressed air supply connection between the control unit and the LP.
- Check the control unit’s electrical power supply.
- Sets the main switch to its «I» position and check that the green light turns on.
b. Shutdown
- Lower the mobile frame to the end of its stroke.
- Set the main switch to its «0» position.
c. Lifting
- After having performed the startup procedure, check to make sure that there are no impediments to the
lifting of the LP.
- If present, make sure that the vehicle upon the LP is properly blocked in place upon the clamps, or else
resting properly upon the rubber pads.
- Press the button (6, fig. 5.1) and hold it down. Once the desired position has been reached, release the
button.
- Press the button (5, fig. 5.1) to lower the LP until it is stopped by the mechanical safety catch, then
release the button.
! DANGER ! ! !
Before approaching the LP to perform any operations upon the vehicle,
set the main switch (3, fig. 5.1) to its «0» position.
d. Lowering
- Make sure that no impediments are present beneath and/or beside the LP before performing any lowering
operations.
Important
If the towing arm is installed upon the LP, make sure that the "support feet" are in their vertical position (properly
engaged) before lowering the lift.
It must be remembered, in fact, that this device constitutes the exact height for inserting or removing the towing
arm (thereby preventing damage to the transport wheels).
If, on the other hand, the towing arm is not installed upon the LP and you want to lower the lift to the ground,
“turn” the "support feet" to their horizontal (disengaged) position before lowering the lift.
Operations for lowering
- Press the raise button briefly to disengage the mechanical safety catch device.
- The lowering button has a double action mechanism: the first opens the outflow solenoid valve,
while the second disengages the safety catch device.
- Next, press the lowering button and hold it down until the desired position has been reached.
-
Note: Upon lowering the lift completely, the two support feet will be automatically reactivated; in fact, they will
move to their vertical position once the LP is raised again.
! ! ATTENTION! !
Make sure that the button panel’s cable does not pass through the frame.
