1.4 Warranty
Every machine is covered under a 12-month warranty for material defects and
faulty assembly, providing this assembly was performed by us. The warranty ex-
tends to all parts which are sent to us for inspection free of charge within twelve
months after delivery. We will examine the parts in order to determine whether
the damage has arisen under normal conditions of use. The warranty is void if
the machine is overloaded, improperly handled, or spare parts have been im-
properly installed and thereby cause damage.

2.1 Mechanical design
The machine consists of the following main components:
• Two lifting units, each of which are made up of:
– underframe
– scissor assembly
– running rails
• Control column with integrated hydraulic unit
2.2 Functional description
By pressing the «Lift» control on the control device, the electric motor of the hy-
draulic unit is switched on. The oil pump of the hydraulic unit pumps hydraulic oil
into the hydraulic cylinders. The hydraulic cylinders extend and the scissor as-
sembly is pressed apart and lifts the running rails.
By pressing the «Lower» control on the control device, the electronically releas-
able check valve is opened and hydraulic oil flows back into the hydraulic tank.
The platform lowers.

3.2 Proper use
The machine lifts vehicles continuously to any ergonomically favourable height.
The permissible load capacity may not be exceeded (see load capacity plate,
type plate or Chap. 2.3 "Technical data", page 7).
The machine may only be used as intended! Severe injuries or equipment dam-
age can result from improper use! This is not the responsibility of the manufac-
turer of the machine, but of the operating company!
The machine is designed for the performance of work underneath the load-bear-
ing equipment and the vehicle. It is not approved for supporting or transporting
persons.
The following is especially prohibited:
• Transport of persons.
• Standing on the platform.
• Operating in areas at risk of explosion.
• Operating in areas requiring a protection type for the electrical equipment
higher than IP 54.

3.4 Technical condition of the equipment
Safe operation places particular demands on the technical condition of the ma-
chine.
• Rebuilding, manipulation or making modifications to the machine is not per-
mitted. This also applies to the use of replacement parts that are not supplied
by us.
• Care and maintenance should be performed at the specified intervals.
• Regular inspections are to be carried out.
• Complete and proper functioning of the safety devices during operation must
be ensured at all times.
• Connection and setting values must correspond to the specifications.
• Load specifications must be observed.
3.5 Obligations of the operating company
The highest possible level of safety can only be achieved in operating practice if
all measures required for it have been taken. It is the responsibility of the operat-
ing company to plan these measures and monitor their implementation.
The operating company must ensure the following in particular:
• The machine is only used as intended (Chap. 3.2 "Proper use", page 9).
• The machine is only operated in technically flawless and functional condition.
• The safety devices are regularly checked for proper functioning. The safety
devices may not be disabled or have their functions restricted.
• The maintenance and inspection intervals specified in this operating manual
are observed (Chap. 9 "Maintenance and inspections", page 29).
• All safety and warning notices attached to the machine are present and in
legible condition. Notices on the machine that have become damaged or il-
legible are to be replaced immediately.
• Only qualified and authorised personnel may operate, service and inspect
the machine.
• These persons must be regularly instructed in all applicable aspects of work
safety and environmental protection, as well as be familiar with and follow the
operating manual and the safety instructions contained within it.
• The required personal protective equipment for operating, maintenance and
inspection personnel must be made available and used.
• The operating manual should be complete and in legible condition and readi-
ly accessible where the machine is in use.
• Further risks must be determined in a risk assessment and the respective
danger zone must be identified under consideration of the special work con-
ditions where the machine is in use.
• All additional instructions and safety notices must be summarised in a com-
pany directive based on the risk assessment of the workstations on the ma-
chine.
3.6 General work safety
When the machine is used, dangers due to incorrect operation or misuse may
pose a hazard to persons, equipment or the environment.

Basic safety instructions
13
• The machine may only be operated, serviced and inspected by qualified and
authorised personnel who have read the operating manual and perform their
work accordingly.
• Only operate the machine in technically flawless and functional condition.
• If damage is detected, immediately switch off the machine, attach a sign in-
forming others that switching back on is prohibited and then inform your su-
pervisor.
• Maintain the cleanliness of the machine and its surroundings.
• Wear personal protective equipment.
3.7 Safety instructions in regard to specific energy systems
3.7.1 Electrical system
The machine is equipped with an electrical system that operates with high volt-
age.
• Prior to beginning work, inspect the electrical system for visible signs of dam-
age. Immediately replace damaged components.
• Before performing maintenance work, switch off the current to the electrical
system and prevent it from being accidentally switched back on.
• Always keep the control boxes closed.
• Lay lines so that they do not pose a stumbling hazard and so that damage
due to falling objects, pinching or abrasion is avoided.
• Do not lay lines around moving components and ensure that the lines cannot
catch on any moving components.
• Protect the electrical system from penetration by water or other liquids.
• Regularly inspect lines, especially after maintenance work, for secure fit.
3.7.2 Hydraulic system
Hydraulicoil, lubricants andothersubstances, such as solvents or cleansers, can
lead to irritation of the skin, eyes or respiratory tract. These also pose a hazard
to the environment.
• Observe the safety instructions of the manufacturer.
• Use personal protective equipment.
• Use a breathing protection mask if necessary.
• Avoid contact with the skin. Should contact with skin arise, wash thoroughly.
• In the event of contact with eyes, rinse and consult a physician.
• Ensure that no substances contaminate the ground or enter the sewer sys-
tem.
• Dispose of hydraulic oil, lubricants and cleansers in accordance with environ-
mental regulations.
3.7.3 Mechanical system
When using and working on the machine, mechanical hazards are present.
These hazards are posed in the area of the mechanics underneath the platform.

Basic safety instructions
14
• Do not reach into or enter the danger zone.
• Avoid standing in the danger zone.
• Remove any foreign objects from the danger zone.
Fig. 3-1 Mechanical danger zones
3.7.4 Surface temperature
Due to friction, certain components (particularly of the hydraulic system) can
have high surface temperatures.
• Before inspections and maintenance work, allow the machine to cool down.
• Use personal protective equipment.
• Check the oil level (Chap. 9.5.1 "Checking the hydraulic oil level", page 32).
If the oil level is too low, the temperature of the hydraulic system will be ad-
ditionally increased. This can lead to higher wear.

Basic safety instructions
15
3.8 Safety devices on the machine
3.8.1 Deadman control
The deadman control of the machine ensures that the function is only carried out
as long as the operator holds the respective control pressed on the control de-
vice.
3.8.2 Independent hydraulic circuits
Two hydraulic circuits independent of one another prevent the unintended lower-
ing of the platform. In the event of abreakin a hydraulic line in one of the hydrau-
lic circuits, the other hydraulic circuit holds the platform.
