3 - SAFETY GUIDELINE.
3.1.- Situate the tower on a solid and flat surface.
3.2.- Check that the support system is fixed by the security trigger and that the tower is
in a upright position.
3.3.- Check that the tower is locked in its working position with the safety lock.
3.4.- When used outdoors, place the tower on a hard surface and if necessary secure it
against excess wind force via cable braces.
3.5.- Do not use ladders nor lean them against the lifter.
3.6.- Be careful with any cables, prominent objects etc. placed above the tower.
3.7.- Do not stand underneath the load.
3.8.- Do not move the tower when it is elevated or loaded.
3.9.- Before using the tower, check the condition of the cable. This must be free of cuts
and frays. Never use damaged cables.
3.10.- Never dismount the winch handle or any element of the winch under any circum-
stance.
3.11.- Once the tower is set-up in its working position we recommended the winch handle
is locked to avoid anyone interfering with it.
3.12.- The minimum load for a safe operation of the brake is 25 kg. The brake will not
function without this minimum load.
3.13.- Do not grease or lubricate the brake mechanism of the winch.
3.14.- This lift cannot lift human beings.
3.15.- For transportation it is necessary to retract all profiles and lock them with the co-
rresponding safety lock.
4.- OPERATION.
4.1.- Place the tower on a flat and solid surface where it is going to be used.
4.2.- Unlock the safety lock from the legs support system. Slide the support system
downwards until the lock has reached the required position.
4.3.- Attach the load to the tower using the desired support (the support varies upon the
application), and ensure it is only used to lift loads vertically. The minimum load is 25 kg.
4.4.- Elevation: Extend the tower by turning the winch handle clockwise, lifting the load
to the desired height.

4.5.- Hold: Release the winch handle, it will remain in position by the action of the
winch’s automatic brake. Ensure the KAT lock has introduced in to the profile by turning
the handle slightly anti-clockwise.
4.6.- Continue elevating: Turn the winch handle again clockwise and lift the load until
the second profile is fully extended. Release the handle which will remain fixed by the
winch’s automatic brake and proceed to ensure that the KAT lock has introduced into the
second profile by turning the handle again anti-clockwise. The tower can be stopped in
any desired intermediate position. Simply release the winch handle and secure the tower
by inserting the corresponding KAT lock into the hole which is closest to the required
position.
4.7.- Descent: Descending the load follows the same procedure but in reverse. Firstly
unlock the KAT lock and turn the winch handle anti-clockwise, until the first profile is com-
pletely folded down. Now unlock the next KAT lock and retract the second profile. Just as
when lifting the load, the lift may be stopped at any intermediate position.
4.8.- Transport: When transporting / carrying the lift it is necessary to fold the tower by
retracting all the profiles completely. Then close the sliding support piece and fix it with
the safety lock and tightening the knob.
5.- MAINTENANCE.
5.1.- All cables must be checked regularly. Faulty cables must be replaced immediately.
Do not use the lifter with faulty cables as it is potentially very dangerous. Only use DIN
3060 cables, supplied from an authorised dealer.
5.2.- The lifter is delivered ex factory completely greased. Depending on its mechanical
use though, we recommend that the crown wheel of the winch, the pads & bushings of
the drive shaft, the handle thread and the profiles of the lift are periodically greased.
ATTENTION:
Do not apply oil or grease to the brake mechanism.
The brake discs have been pre-greased with a special heat and pressure resistant grea-
se. To avoid malfunction to the winch brake, no other products must be used except the
original provided by the company. It is not necessary to grease the brake discs.
