understanding of proper use and maintenance procedures.

•
DO NOT use this lifter if it is damaged, malfunctioning, or missing parts.
•
DO NOT modify the product in any way without first obtaining written approval from Vestil.

ONLY raise the cylinder a few inches from the floor when transporting it. When transporting a cylinder up-
or-downhill, always remain uphill to the lifter. DO NOT move the lifter up or downhill unless you can easily
control the lifter. Although the CYL-HLT is equipped with 2 locking casters, these locks will NOT hold the
