Please read the following instructions and 
guidance notes carefully, before using or 
operating the system.

They contain important information about how to 
handle and use the system in a safe and efficient 
way, avoiding danger, reducing repair costs 
and downtime, and increasing the reliability and 
lifespan of the system.

     They apply for:

          Operation, including preparation, 

troubleshooting during operation and 
cleaning

          Maintenance, inspection and repair

          Transportation

It is the responsibility of the end user to adhere 
to the Health & Safety and accident prevention 
standards and legislation valid in their respective 
countries and any regions in which the system is 
being used. It is also incumbent on the user or 
competent person to ensure that anyone working 
with the equipment has the necessary medical 
and physical capabilities. A rescue plan also needs 
to be in place in the event of an emergency that 
could occur during the work. This document 
should form part of the overriding Risk Assessment 
and Method Statement required for each lift.
