LOADING INSTRUCTIONS
The load capacity
, which
appears on the
data label (see
p. 11, label 287) of your unit, is
the
net
maximum weight the table will support. All
loads applied to the table must be centered and
evenly distributed, and
assum
es
the load is
centered.
DO NOT exceed the capacity
becau
s
e
permanent damage or injury m
ight
occur
.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
This unit is equipped with a constant
pressure ("deadman" type) push button controller.
The buttons are marked, "RAISE" and "LOWER".
Press the "RAISE" button to elevate the deck of
the table. When the button is pressed, the
motor air supply valve opens and air pressure
causes the cylinder to extend. Cylinder extension
raises the deck. Always stand to the side of the
table while operating the cylinder and
keep
clear
of moving parts. The platform will rise as long as
the "RAISE" control is pressed.
When the button is
released, the deck will maintain its present
position. Releasing the button allows the valve to
close and prevents further air flow, i.e. closes the
pilot-operated motor air supply valve.
P
ressing the "LOWER" control
button
energizes
the lowering solenoid valve. Th
is allows
the
cylinders
to
retract as oil returns to the
reservoir
.
As with the RAISE button,
releasing the
LOWER button
causes the deck to stop moving
and to
main
tain
its current
elevation. Be certain
no person or object is in the way wh
ile
the unit
descend
s
.
I
f
the unit is overloaded,
the deck
will not
rise
. Instead,
the relief valve will open due to
excessive pressure buildup an
s
oil will bypass
the
cylinder and flow
into the reservoir.
Always remember
: 1)
the motor
operates
only
wh
ile
the "RAISE" button is pressed
;
and
2)
the
lowering solenoid valve is energized only wh
ile
the
"LOWER" button is pressed.
