11.3 Site specifications
The post lift may only be installed above ground
and indoors.
Refer to the building plans when selecting a site.
When anchoring to the floor, take into account
any pipes, cables, and supply lines lying there.
Ensure that the load capacity of the foundation is
adequate.
●
Support surface for lift columns:
Reinforced concrete, concrete quality
C20/C25
●
Floor load capacity for each lift column (34 x
23 cm): Min. 2000 kg.
●
Floor must be designed for a floor anchor.
Do
not
fit post lifts onto asphalt or a similar
unstable surface, since the anchor may come
loose in the floor.
Comply with the specified minimum distances
and clearances (
Chapter 3.3. Work place,
danger zone):
●
Min. work area for loading and movement:
8.58 m x 4.86 m.
●
Min. distance around sides:
0.8 m, without through traffic 0.6 m
●
Min. ceiling height / lamp height:
2.032 m + overhead clearance of largest
vehicle.
Take account of the max. required hall
height/room height. For variants with rolling
jack, also factor in the max. extension height
of the rolling jack.
For wheel alignment lifts, take into account
the vehicle or alignment system
manufacturer’s specifications.
32
Runways must be fitted straight and level. Height
tolerance ± 5 mm, max. difference between di-
agonals 6 mm.
Tighter tolerances are defined for the optional
wheel alignment kit, according to manufactur-
er’s specifications.
Factor in sufficient space for the approach and
drive-off. Take drive-on ramps into account.
Take note of the maximum bearing pressure
under the lift column. Take into account the
weight distribution and the dead load of the lift
parts.
11.4 Installation preparations
1.
Provide an electrical and pneumatic outlet close
to the lift column with the control unit:
●
Electrical, according to the lift variant :
230 V AC or 400 V (3xL+N+PE),
5 x 2.5 mm²
●
Pneumatic: 6...8 bar. When using a
pneumatic axle jack (Optional)
8...10 bar.
2.
Level out any uneven floor areas around the lift
columns. If required, fill bearing surfaces for lift
columns with reinforced concrete (concrete
quality C20/C25).
3.
Equalize slight differences in height between lift
columns using spacers or shims (optional ac-
cessories).
The permitted height tolerance between the
lift columns is ± 5 mm. The 4 lift columns
must be leveled exactly to the same height so
that the runways are horizontal. This is also
important when settling the lift onto the latch
bars.
Use only original spacers or shims (
optional
accessories).
