4.3 Unloading and handling
All lifting and unloading operations must be carried out in compliance with current safety
regulations.
The cardboard and wooden packagings must be lifted using a forklift truck, by inserting the forks
inside the wooden supports.
It is recommended that the unloading or handling operations to be carried out with a
forklift truck by a single Operator equipped with workshop gloves, safety footwear
and protective helmet, as required by current regulations.
This Operator must pay maximum attention to all transport phases.
Do not allow any other person to stand in the operating area of the forklift truck in
order to prevent the accidental fall of the boxes.
During the unloading phase, in any case, pay attention to the vehicles and people in transit.
Make sure there are not many holes in the floor or on the high slope ramps for the vehicle used, in
relation to the load carried; always proceed at low speed with the means of transport.
The unloading of the cardboard packaging containing the lifting bench from the wooden pallet
carried out manually by no less than four operators equipped with workshop gloves must be done
near the location where the machine will be installed.
4.4 Receipt and check
The packaging is made of suitable material and is carried out by expert personnel, but during the
journey it is possible to be deteriorated or damaged.
Upon receipt of the machine, immediately check if the packages are clearly damaged. If so, accept
the goods with reserve, by making photographic evidence of any damage.
Open the box by cutting the clips and the closing adhesive tape.
Make sure all the material shown on the delivery note is actually present.
Make sure the parts of the machine have not been damaged during transport and notify any
damage to the arrier by REGISTERED LETTER within 5 days of receipt (and notify Bike Lift Europe
s.r.l.), by presenting photographic evidence.

5 Installation section
The machine must be installed in compliance with the safety regulations and instructions included
in this chapter.
WARNING: OMPLETELY remove the pallet located under the lift by removing the
fixing screws before using the machine.
The machine does not need a base, but requires a flat and horizontal floor. The floor must be able
to support a minimum weight of 1000 kg/m2.
The lift must be placed in such a way as to allow the operator to easily repair the bicycles.
The lift must therefore be installed by taking into account the minimum distances from walls or
other possible boundaries (boundaries are imaginary lines that delimit the work or safety areas of
other machines or structures).
The ascent/descent ramp must be positioned so that the vehicle can be easily lifted. The ramp
must not be directed towards an obstacle that is too close to the vehicle lifting platform.
WARNING: It is absolutely forbidden to position the lifting platform on bumpy or
inclined ground.
Bring the machine to the place of installation by using a mechanical lift, unpack it and place it in
the chosen area.
To install the machine, fix it to the floor with 4 dowels M10 x 100 mm, using the appropriate holes
(used to fix the sleepers).
