• Provide necessary lockout/tagout means for energy sources per ANSI
Z244.1-1982 (R1993), Safety Requirements for the Lockout/Tagout of
Energy Sources, before beginning any lift repairs.
• Not modify the lift in any manner without the prior written consent of the
manufacturer.
2.5 Safety measures
2.5.1 Emergency stop
Set the rotary switch on the main control box to 0 or press the emergency button on
the auxiliary control box if an emergency arises. All movements of all column lifts will
stop.
If the emergency stop has been used, check:
• whether any person is trapped,
• whether the mobile column lifts have been damaged.
2.5.2 Safety features
The mobile column lifts have a control and monitoring system, which ensures that:
• the guide blocks always stay at an equivalent height within the control limits,
• lowering is halted in the event that obstacles cause an elevation difference to
occur,
• the control circuit is interrupted, in the event the height difference between the
guide blocks exceeds a pre-defined value; operation via the push buttons on the
mobile column lift control boxes is then disabled,
• the lowering action stops 12’’ above the floor; if the <DOWN> and <UNLOCK>
buttons are pressed again, the column will be lowered further with an
accompanying acoustic signal; this option (foot protection) can be enabled or
disabled; by default it is disabled,
• lifting is halted when the highest position is reached (height safeguard),
• the lifting columns cannot be operated if one or more of the columns are lifted
using the pallet lifting mechanism.
• lowering is mechanically blocked in the event of loss of control power or leakage
from the cylinders.
