ORIGINAL
4. USER INSTRUCTIONS.
4.1 -
Place the lift on a firm, flat surface
in the area it is to be used with the help of
the transport wheels (
T
).
4.2 -
Remove the legs (
P
) from their trans-
port compartment (
S
) and fully insert them
into their working positions (
V
) checking
that they are fixed by the pins (
R
). Remo-
ve the reinforcement struts (
A
) as well and
place them in their anchor points (
E
), fix
them with their corresponding pins and
clips.
4.3 -
Check that the lift is in vertical posi
-
tion using the spirit level (
L
) at the base of
the tower, adjust the stabilizer of the legs
(
Q1
), turning the handle (
H
) if necesary.
Finally, adjust the base stabilizer (
Q2
)
until it touches the floor.
4.4 -
Release the forks (
F
) and place them
in its working horizontal position ready to
take the load on them. Insert the pins to
block the forks.
4.5 - DO NOT OVERLOAD THE LIFT.
MAXIMUM LOAD IS 400 kg (881.9 lb)
The lift should NEVER be overloaded.
Safety at work is the most important is
-
sue. Place the load onto the lift using an
adequate VMB support according to the
need, use so that the weight of the load
will only be elevated in a vertical direction.
The minimum load is 25 Kg.
4.6 -
How to place the load:
Always load
as close to the tower as possible.
The maximum load diminishes according
to the distance from the body of the tower
as illustrated in the diagram
4.6.1
, which
shows the load on the gravity centre with
distances to the lifting carriage at a maxi-
mum lifting. Use a VMB adaptor if neces-
sary.
CAUTION
When two towers are used to elevate a
truss bridge, or many towers to elevate a
structure of any type, it is almost impos-
sible that two or more people co-ordinate
the winches elevating or lowering the
loads, at exactly the same pace. At a cer-
tain point each tower will be extended to
different height. For this reason it is ne-
cessary that the structure does not stretch
and allows for these differences.
With a rigid fixation and if the level diffe
-
rence is significant, the force generated
from the handle of the winch will deform
the structure and apply a lateral force to
the lifts causing them to break and block.
