Lift Description 11
BP12000X
Lift Descript ion
The lift is suitable for lifting m ot or vehicles having m axim um weight as described
in t he nam eplat e on the power side colum n of t he lift . All m echanical parts such
as colum ns, carriages and lift arm s have been built in st eel plat e t o m ake t he
fram e st iff and st rong while keeping a low weight. The elect ro hydraulic
operat ion is described in det ail in chapt er 8.
This chapter describes t he lift ’s principal elem ents, allowing t he user to be
fam iliar wit h t he m achine.
As shown in fi gure 2, t he lift is com posed of t wo colum ns: power- side colum n
( 1) and off- side colum n ( 2) , each equipped wit h a car riage ( 3) and a pair of
lift ing arm s ( 4) w it h t he adapt or ( 5) anchor ed t o t he ground by m eans of base
plat es of colum ns. The base plat e ( 6) is used t o prot ect routed lines bet ween
colum ns. Raising m ot ion is carried out by pushing the lifting but t on on a power
unit ( 7) w hich delivers
t he hydraulic fl uid t o
cylinders inside the
colum ns to act on t he
chain syst em t o raise
the lift.
Lowering t he vehicle
by pushing down t he
lowering handle on
the power unit while
holding down t he
safet y lock handle ( 8) .
The synchronization
is controlled by t he
equalizer cables. The
arm safet y can be
engaged autom at ically
when t he lift is raised.
