SAFETY
The battery-operated stackers are very powerful lifts
capable of doing large amounts of work.
DO NOT INSTALL OR OPERATE THESE LIFTS
WITHOUT CAREFULLY READING THIS MANUAL.
In order to provide for the safe operation of these stack-
ers, Presto Lifts Inc. has identified certain hazards that
may occur during the installation, maintenance and use
of these lifts. For safety reasons these units are designed
to be serviced or repaired in the collapsed position. If
performed properly, this will greatly reduce the possibil-
ity of injury.
WARNING!
The following guidelines should be used when
using a lifter:
Under no circustances should the lifter lift
above the weight capacity.
The lifter must not be used to lift people.
There must be only one person in constact with
the lifter while it is being operated.
There should be no body parts near the slide
on the tower or other lifitng eqiupmet when the
lifter is being oeprated.
There must be no people or body parts below
the load.
The lifter must be operated on a firm level sur
-
face when lifting or transporting loads.
When moving a load, the load should be low-
ered to a low position and secured so that it
cannot slide.
When leaving or storing the lifter, ensure that the
sled is lowered completely,and that the lifter is free
of any load or cargo.
The load's center of gravity should be behind the
front wheels of the uspport legs.
The lifter should only be cleaned by wiping with
a damp cloth, otherwise water may enter into the
contacts and control panel.
The timing belt should be replaced every 8 years.

INSTALLATION
A. INSPECTION
:
Upon receipt of the stacker, inspect the equipment com-
pletely to determine if there is any shipping damage,
and that the lift is complete. Presto Lifts Inc. tests and
inspects every piece of equipment prior to shipment. If
damage is apparent, a freight claim must be filed with
the freight company. Do not use the lift if there appears
to be any damage. With the lift in a collapsed position,
check the following:
1 Check for signs of damage especially to the
back cabinet that houses the battery and power
pack.
2 Check base frame for dimensions and struc-
tural integrity.
3 Inspect for any bent or damaged metal parts.
