2.0 Safety Instructions
The safety of all persons operating, maintaining, repairing, or in the vicinity of the Lift Table is of
paramount concern to Safetech. The Lift Table is a powerful machine with moving parts and is
capable of causing personal injury or death if proper precautions are not taken.
Safetech has identified certain hazards, which may occur in the use of the Lift Table, and provide
instructions or precautions to avoid these hazards. In some cases, Safetech has also pointed out
the consequences that may occur if Safetech's instructions or precautions are not followed. Safetech
uses the following system of identifying the severity of the hazards associated with its products:
"
Danger
" Immediate hazard which will result in severe personal injury or death.
"
Warning
" Hazard or unsafe practice which could result in severe personal injury or death.
"
Caution
" Hazard or unsafe practice which could result in minor personal injury or property
damage.
Users MUST apply the maintenance chock before entering the area beneath the platform.
To apply the maintenance chock/s, remove the load and fully raise the Lift Table. Rotate the chock
into position and then lower the Lift Table so that the lower roller rests against the chock.
Warning
: Be sure to use both maintenance chocks where supplied. Both must be used to support
the Lift Table safely.
To release the maintenance chock/s, raise the Lift Table and rotate the maintenance chock out of
the roller path and into its rest position.
It is essential that the Lift Table is raised from the maintenance chock under its own power. This is
the only way to ensure that the hydraulic system can hold the weight of the Lift Table.
Do not
force
the maintenance chock out of the roller path when the roller is resting on the maintenance chock.
2.1
Electrical Supply
Danger
:
The lift table uses a power supply of up to 415V AC. This voltage can kill. Do not work
on the electrical parts unless you are a qualified electrician.
Safetech lift tables are usually supplied with a power cable and plug that can be plugged in to the
appropriate power outlet.
Three phase lift tables require a 415 V four-pin 10A outlet. Single-phase lift tables require a 240V
10A outlet. As the single phase lift table draws approximately 10A, do not use a double adapter or
run other appliances from the same outlet.
Caution
:
To reduce the effects of voltage drop, use only heavy-duty extension leads and do not
use more than 10 metres of extension lead. Excessive voltage drop may result in
failure of the motor or other electrical components.
All Safetech lift tables incorporate low voltage controls to enhance operator safety. Three phase lift
tables incorporate a remote electrical enclosure containing low voltage control supply and motor
switchgear. The enclosure is connected to the lift table via a flexible cable.
