7.8 Maintenance
7.8.1 Maintenance of the lifting column
Basically, the lifting column does not require maintenance, but it is not exempt from wear. In other words,
if there is excessive wear or you fail to exchange worn-out product components, the safety of the product
may no longer be guaranteed.
Work with the lifting column may only take place in accordance with these instructions. The device may
only be opened by authorized specialist personnel. If there is a fault with the column, we recommend that
you contact the manufacturer or send it for repair.
•
When working on the electrics or the electrical elements, they must be first disconnected from
the supply to prevent any risk of injury.
•
Unauthorized conversions of or changes to the lifting column are not permitted for safety
reasons.
•
Safety-related equipment must be checked on a regular basis, however, at least once a year
for completeness and function.
The safety-related check of the lifting column must be carried out according to DIN EN 62353. The tech-
nical safety inspection must be carried out every twelve months at the latest. The technical safety inspec-
tion may only be carried out by authorized specialist personnel.
