5. MAINTENANCE.
5.1 - Regularly check the state of the cable. If the
cable has broken threads, or if it shows any
signs of crushed/flattened areas, it should be
changed and replaced immediately by a new
one. Do not use the lift if the cables are in bad
condition. Only use steel cables reference:
DIN 3060 torsion resistant.
5.2 - The lift is supplied from the factory
completely greased. However, it is
recommended to periodically grease according
to use, the gearing, the axis bearings, the
spiral of the crank, and the sections.
REMEMBER: NEVER grease or lubricate
the breaking mechanism.
It is not necessary to grease the brake
disks. The brake disks have been greased
with a special heat and pressure resistant
solution. Other products should not be used
to avoid negative effects regarding the brak-
ing mechanism.
5.3 - An expert should check the TL-070 at least
once a year according to its usage. Consult
your distributor.
5.4 - Only original replacement parts should be
used to guarantee continued safety during
usage.
The user loses all guarantee rights if he/she
uses replacement parts that are not original
or if he/she makes any modification to the
apparatus.
5.5 - To order any replacement parts, the
reference number on the replacement parts
pages in this manual should be indicated.

6. TROUBLE SHOOTING
- HARD TO ELEVATE:
Check that the total load does not exceed 550
lb (250 kg) DO NOT TO EXCEED THE MAXI-
MUM LOAD.
Check that the load is not placed excessively
from the body of the tower according to dia-
gram in this quick operation guide.
ALWAYS LOAD AS CLOSE TO THE LIFT AS
POSSIBLE.
Check that the lifts in use when elevating a
bridge or truss structure are at equal heights
and not causing force laterally causing them
to brake. If this is the case adjust the heights
and continue to elevate the load in a horizon-
tal position. Check that the fixations of the
bridge or structure are not rigid whilst elevat-
ing and that they allow for the necessary
movements during elevation. Place the fixa-
tion so that it allows for slight displacements
of the support. Use the loading kits SU-070 &
BS-070.
-DIFFICULTY IN LOWERING THE LIFT
WHEN EXTENDED.
As explained above, it is necessary to apply
the minimum load of 110 lb (50kg). If this is not
the case and the lift does not descend, carry
out the following:
A. Extend the lift to tighten the cable and chains
to free the security system.
B. When the cable and chains have been
tightened it is possible to lower the lift
normally
C. Make sure the red ALS latch is held up.
