Safety function
Safety curtains
The pre-assembled safety curtains ensure that nobody will be jammed, if the
platform is in the highest position and drives down.
Safety contact bar for downward movement
This function is generally recommended but absolutely necessary in case the
platform is located in a pit or next to a shearing edge. If a person or an object will be
jammed during the downward stroke of the platform, the downward movement
stops immediately if the contact bars will be activated.
In order to switch off the safety function the “UP” button has to be pressed. Now the
object can be removed, which has activated the contact bar.
Overload protection
The platform motor is set to a certain overload current that will detect overload
during the upward movement and switch of the lift. Then only downward movement
will be possible.
Emergency exit – opening of access ramp
The access ramp is mounted with a bolt on the actuator. This bolt will be screwed
off and the access ramp opens. Then the person on the platform can be helped to
get out of the lift. This will require the help of various assisting persons.
Fuses
If a fuse drops out, the cause has to be examined by qualified staff. The exchange
of the fuse is only allowed by qualified staff, before the platform is operating again.
User / emergency assistant – emergency backup
One or more responsible person/s have to be educated in operating the platform
right. The responsible person has to be available in every emergency situation and
thus must be reachable by calling or over the phone.
The name of the responsible person must be known to the user.
We recommend a battery backup for the user, which depend on the platform,
in case there can be power losses.
Disassambly & Transport
It is possible to deconstruct the platfform for the transport and the storage; platform,
rails and access ramp.
The company
Lehner Lifttechnik
recommends to transport the platform in the
original packing.
