Safety cut-out board .
A safety cut-out board has been fitted under the lift
basket, which means that the lifting platform stops if it comes into contact with
anything. If an object appears below the lift basket and the lifting platform has
stopped, the lifting platform must be taken slightly up in order to remove the
object before the lifting platform can be operated normally again.
When the emergency lowering device is being used, the safety cut-out board
will not work.
Automatic stop .
The lifting platform stops automatically at the preset height.
On the upper level an extra safety switch is mounted that stops the platform if
the normal end stop should fail.
Emergency lowering device .
The lifting platform is equipped with an emer-
gency lowering device. In the event of unwanted stops or power failures, the
lifting platform can be lowered by using the emergency lowering device
.
The
emergency lowering device is locked in and is placed in the motor housing
which is either behind the lifting platform or at the side depending on the cus-
tomer’s requirements and available space. We therefore recommend that the
user carries a mobile phone or safety alarm when the lifting platform is used
without someone to assist. See also the Operating Instructions.
Great care must be taken when using the emergency lowering device
because the safety cut-out board does not work when this is activated .
Read the instructions on the motor housing carefully before use .
External control panels .
The lifting platform is equipped with external control
panels which makes it possible to retrieve the lifting platform at the desired
level.
Parking the lifting platform .
The lifting platform must be parked at the lower
level in order to prevent snow, leaves and other foreign objects from getting
below the lifting platform when not in use. This will also ensure that heating
cables keep the safety cut-out board free from ice and snow, and prevent the
drying out of the hydraulic cylinder’s piston rod and stuffing boxes.
