SAFETY AND OPERATION
Safety
Please read the paragraphs “Work safety”, “Personal safety equipment” and “Operating personnel”.
WARNING! Danger of injury!
During lifting and lowering movements the lifting platform generates dangers which could lead
to severe injury, such as crushing or shearing off of limbs or by heavy objects slipping off
or falling down.
In order to avoid accidents the following should be noted when operating lifting platforms:
•
During the up or down movement of the lifting platform the danger zone and the immediate
vicinity of the lifting platform should be free of persons. The distance between persons and the
lifting platform should be at least 2 m.
•
Accessing the load bearing devices, riding on, climbing onto and standing on the lifted platform
is strictly prohibited.
•
Do not load the lifting platform beyond the max. permitted load bearing capacity.
•
Observe the permitted load distribution (see section “Technical Data”).
•
Load the lifting platform evenly. Possible shifting of the vehicle’s
center
of gravity caused by
the
disassem-bly of vehicle components must be taken into account.
•
Do not initiate any vibration of the lifting platform while performing assembly work on the
vehicle.
•
Always keep the main switch locked to avoid unauthorized operation and unintended switching
on.
