3.6 Requirements to the place of installation
The lifting platforms consist of an above oor and a under oor component. They can be installed as standard,
basement or ceiling installation version.
Hydraulic cylinders, hydraulic pump, motor, valves and parts of the controls are tted in-ground in a covered
foundation frame or in a cassette. The foundation depth thereby depends on the design of the lifting platform
(see “Technical Data”).
The superstructure, possibly with integrated wheel free device, and the control panel represent the above oor
tted modules.
The lifting platform must only be installed in dry indoor workshops or in outdoor areas protected against the
inuences of weather (wind-load, humidity etc.). The installation requires a level oor. The installation location
must be free of high dust and/or dirt loads. It must be assured that the foundation will remain dry and clean
during the entire utilization time of the lifting platform.
When working on the oor edge (e.g. tiling of the oor) the shell tubes of the hydraulic cylinder and the sealing
band must be appropriately protected against dust, sand, mortar, cleansing agents and other foreign matter.
The manufacturer or his representative will not accept any liability, compensation and/or warranty claims for
damage caused by the entry or introduction of foreign materials into the working range of the lifting platform.
NOTE!
Before starting work inform the person responsible for building work about the necessary precautions in the
vicinity of the lifting platform!
Use of the lifting platform in wet rooms, such as a car wash, is only permitted in combination with special
optional equipment, which is available from the manufacturer on request. In this case the controls must be
installed well protected against moisture at a place with unobstructed view to the danger zone.

4 Structure and function
4.1 General description
4.1.1 Principle of function
The lifting columns under the left and right hand side of the vehicle have the function of lifting and lowering the
vehicle. The following superstructures for vehicles are available for selection:
Superstructure "Repair platform"
The superstructure is designed as longitudinal girder and must be attached to the specied locations on the ve-
hicle chassis. During the lifting process the vehicle is lifted up by the chassis, wheels and underside of vehicle
remain accessible, except the sills.
Superstructure "Swivel Arm"
Single or double telescopic, partly slidable. The superstructure must be attached to the specied locations on
the vehicle chassis. During the lifting process the vehicle is lifted up by the chassis, wheels and underside of
vehicle remain accessible.
The swivel arms are of telescopic design and can therefore be exactly positioned to match smaller as well as
larger vehicles.
Superstructure "Platform", type Fv-Uni
This superstructure picks up the vehicle with wheel supports under the wheels. During the lifting process the
vehicle remains with its wheels on the wheel supports, most of the underside of the vehicle is freely accessible.
The wheel supports can be laterally plugged into the longitudinal girder at di󰀨erent positions. This enables the
lift to lift vehicles with di󰀨erent wheel bases.
Superstructure "Platform"
This superstructure picks up the vehicle by the wheels. During the lifting process the vehicle remains on its
wheels, the underside of the vehicle is freely accessible.
Lifting platforms of types Fn are additionally equipped with scissor wheel free device, which are integrated in
the platforms. These scissor wheel free devices enable further lifting of the vehicle by the chassis, after it has
been lifted to highest position with the superstructure "Platform". With this device the wheels can additionally be
cleared.
Combi-type lifting platforms are equipped with the superstructure "Platform" on the outer lifting unit and a
second, integrated superstructure ("Repair platform" or "Swivel Arm") on the inner lifting unit.
The vehicle can be lifted either with the outer lifting unit ("Platform"), or with the inner lifting unit ("Repair plat-
form" or "Swivel Arm"). The max. lifting height with both lifting units fully extended is max. 1905 mm.
For the lifting process the vehicle must be positioned in roll-on direction centrally in the area of the lifting plat-
form, so that the superstructures are evenly arranged under the left and right hand sides of the vehicle, accor-
ding to the specied load distribution.
Movement of the lifting platform is triggered by actuating the buttons on the control box. The hydraulic cylinders
move in or out in compliance with the chosen direction of movement. The superstructure with the vehicle is
thereby lifted or lowered.
