5.2 Before use
DANGER
Risk of injury if an incorrect
procedure is followed before use
 No one may loiter under the vehicle when the
lift is moving, clamber onto the lift, or climb
into the car. The movement of the slider block
and the arms must not be hampered by
objects (e.g. tools), before they have reached
their end position.

Inspect the lift - see ”Inspection and
maintenance instructions for operators". Never
activate the lift if it is showing a malfunction or
damaged parts.

Before the vehicle is placed on the lift, it must be
fully lowered and everyone must move away
from the work area.

If problems occur, set the main switch to ”0“.
The lift may only be inspected by authorised
and qualified staff. Before all maintenance or
repair work, lock the main switch with the key
switch and if necessary, disconnect the lift from
the power supply.

Do NOT use the lift as a crane or jack for other
lifting mechanisms!
5.3 Switching on the equipment

To connect the control unit to the power supply,
set the main switch to ”1".
5.4 Driving the vehicle onto the
lift

Unauthorised or untrained persons may NOT
operate the lift and may NOT lift the vehicle.

Do NOT drive against or over the arms

Do NOT overload the lift: Refer to the load
capacity plate on the lift

Refer to the weight distribution details in
the ”Area of use" chapter. Never exceed the
figures in this chapter in order not to expose
the operator to danger.

Make sure that the vehicle is centred
according to the longitudinal axis of the lift
and that the pick-up points of the vehicle
chassis are correctly positioned in relation to
the adapters.

Make sure that the arms do not directly touch
the vehicle chassis. Before lifting, check again
that all adapters are correctly positioned
below the pick-up points.

Check that the arm restraints are properly
engaged before lifting the vehicle.

Make sure that no danger arises from lifting
the load, and after lifting the load for a few
centimetres, check that the vehicle is correctly
positioned and secure.

It is essential that the vehicle is lifted at the
points indicated by the manufacturer for this
purpose and only accessories supplied by the
manufacturer of the lift.

When raising and lowering, ensure that the
motion of the lift is smooth and does not
chatter and that the load is always stable. If a
vehicle is unstable or the operation of the lift
does not appear normal, halt operation of the
lift immediately. If possible, lower the lift again
with extreme care. If necessary, check and
correct the vehicle position. If the vehicle
continues to be unstable, set the main switch
to ”0“ and contact the maintenance technician
at your authorised dealer.
5.5 Up / down
The lift must be lowered and raised steadily,
so that the load does not shift.
If the vehicle does not remain stable, halt all
lift movement immediately.
Then turn the main switch to ”0“ and lock it.
