OVERVIEW OF THE LIFT
2.1 General descriptions
This floor plate two posts lift is composed of posts, carriages, lifting arms, cylinders and motor unit, etc.
It is driven by an electro-hydraulic system. The gear pump delivers hydraulic oil to oil cylinders and pushes upwards its piston. The
piston drives the chain to raise the carriage and the lifting arms. During lifting process, the safety latch will automatically and
firmly bite with the safety teeth block in the posts. Therefore, no slipping will happen in case the hydraulic system breaks down.

fixed in the post.
Step3: When the first post has been taken away, place something supporter under the second post and then remove the bolts on
the package.
Step 4: Fix the standing position for the two posts. (see Annex 3, floor plan)
1. Unfold the package and decide on which post the power unit will be mounted.
2. Draw an outline of the base plate on the ground with chalk and ascertain the position for the post.
Step 5: Erect the posts, power side post first and then the other post.
1.Drill anchor holes for expansion bolts on the ground with an electrical drill. Make sure to drill vertically.
2.After holes have been drilled, remove thoroughly the debris and dust in them and ascertain that the posts stay upon the circle
previously drawn by chalk.

6.1. Daily checking items before operation
The user must perform daily check. Daily check of safety lock system in very important –the discovery of device failure before action
could save time and prevent great loss, injury or casualty.
·Before operation, judge whether the safety locks are engaged by sound.
·Check whether oil hose well connected and whether it leaks or not.
·Check the connections of chain and steel cable and check the power unit.
·Check whether expansion bolts are firmly screwed.
·Check if arm lock works well or not.
1.2. Weekly checking items
·Check the flexibility of moving parts.
·Check the working conditions of safety parts.
·Check the amount of oil left in the oil tank. Oil is enough if the carriage can be raised to highest position. Otherwise, oil is insufficient.
·Check whether expansion bolt s firmly screwed.
6.3. Monthly checking items
·Check whether expansion bolts are firmly screwed.
·Check the tightness of the hydraulic system and screw firm the joints if it leaks.
·Check the lubrication and abrasion circumstance of axial pins, carriages, lifting arms and other related parts and replace in time
with new ones if they failed to work well.
·Check the lubrication and abrasion circumstance of steel cable.
6.4. Yearly checking items
·Empty the oil tank and check the quality of hydraulic oil.
16
