Height Adjustment
When adjusting the height downwards, make sure that there are no objects on the shelf under the
table that are higher than the lowest position of the table top.
Pay attention to the existing danger of crushing hands and fingers, especially when moving the
platform downwards. Never reach under the table top during height adjustment!
9.4.1
AM 500 FH / AM 1200 FH
The hydraulic height adjustment of the platform is based on 2 parallel column guides. The AM 500 FH has 1
hydraulic power unit in the left column, while the AM 1200 FH has two power units (1 x left and 1 x right).
Figure 6: Food pedal for height
•
By actuating the foot pedal (
A
) downwards, the internal hydraulics
react to the tie bars in the columns and move the table top gradually
upwards. To reach the complete lifting height, approx. 40 actuations
are required.
•
When the foot pedal (
A
) is released, the movement stops and the
working platform remains in this position. In order to adjust the sup-
porter infinitely and exactly to the desired position, the foot pedal
(
A
) can be released at any point.
•
By actuating the foot pedal (
B
), the platform is lowered downwards
for the duration of the operation.
The hydraulic force is transmitted to the hydraulic cylinder(s) via the foot pump. Foot pump and hydraulic cylin-
der are a fixed unit.
9.4.2
AM 400 ESA / AM 500 ESA
The electric height adjustment of the work and assembly table is based on 2 parallel column guides, each with
an integrated spindle motor.
Figure 7: Control panel with buttons
•
The height of the platform is adjusted via a centrally located control
panel (see(
Figure 7) on the table support frame.
•
Use the button
to move the platform upwards and the button
to
move downwards.
•
The electric drives are controlled according to the dead man's princi-
ple, i.e. the table moves in the desired direction as long as one of the
two buttons is pressed. As soon as the button is released, the table
comes to a standstill and remains in this position.
The two spindle motors are concealed in the left and right lifting columns
and thus protected from dirt and damage.
