3.2 LIFTING AND HANDLING
When loading/unloading or transporting the equipment to the site, be sure to use suitable loading
(e.g. cranes, trucks) and hoisting equipment. Hoist and transport the components securely so that
they cannot drop, taking into consideration the package’s size, weight and centre of gravity and
fragile parts.
In figure 2 there are the correct indications for the lifting of the runways during the connecting
cables phase:
1. runways lifting without play detector
2. runways lifting with support (ex. metal sheet) placed in the entry runway fixing plate
3. runways lifting with hydraulic play detector
4. lift lifting (pay attention to the hydraulic hoses).

Figure 2 –PACKAGE AND HANDLING
Hoist and handle only one package at a time
3.3 STORAGE AND STACKING OF PACKAGES
Packages must be stored in a covered area, out of direct sunlight and in low humidity, at a
temperature between -10°C and +40°C.
Stacking is not recommended: the package’s narrow base, as well as its considerable weight and
size make it difficult and hazardous.
If this was necessary, never stack more than three packages a time and fix them with straps, ropes
or other suitable means to ensure they are secure.
3.4 DELIVERY AND CHECKING OF PACKAGES
When the lift is delivered, check for possible damages due to transport and storage; verify its
conformity with what is specified in the manufacturer’s confirmation of order is included. In case
of damage in transit, the customer must immediately inform the carrier of the problem.
Packages must be opened paying attention not to cause damage to people (keep a safe distance
when opening straps) and parts of the lift (be careful the objects do not drop from the package
when opening).

4 CHAPTER 4 - PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
4.1 LIFT (Ref. Figure 3)
All models have been designed to lift motor-vehicles at any level between the minimum and
maximum height.
The maximum lifting weight, including any additional load on the vehicle, is as specified on the
serial plate.
All mechanical frames, such as platforms, extensions, base frames and arms have been built in a
pressure bend plant to make the frame rigid and strong while keeping a low weight
The electro hydraulic operation is described in detail in chapter 8
As shown in figure 3, the lifts is composed of two platforms, the platform 1 (1) and the platform 2
(2) anchored to the ground by means of two base frames (3)
The lift is equipped with 4 drive-up ramps (4) at the end of the platforms to facilitate the entry the
of vehicle.
Platforms, linked to the base frame by means of a scissors lifting system, is 4200 mm in length and
the lifting system of each platform is composed of two arms, external (5) and internal (6), as well
as a cylinder primary (7)in platform P1, and a secondary cylinder (8) in platform P2.
On both cylinders are installed mechanical safety devices. (9).
Lift lowering and lifting are carried out by means of a control box (17) (fixed to the ground) next
to the lift.
Models LT and LTAT, are equipped with an auxiliary lift or lift-table,(10) for further lifting of the
vehicle. Two cylinders (11) for platform P1 and (12) for platform P2 raise the auxiliary lift.
On both cylinders are installed mechanical safety devices. (13).
Auxiliary lift platforms are equipped with extensions. (14).
Models LT e LTAT are equipped with slip plates (15) and recess for turn plates (16).

Double function button:
Mechanical safety insertion / final lowering (last 400 mm.) (5)
Pilot lamp (6)
Up push button (7)
Down push button (8)
Emergency button (9)
Beeper (10)

override button (15) is placed inside the control desk, under the electric panel..
Main hydraulic unit (16) is placed in the lower parts of the control box .
The hydraulic unit is made of : oil tank (17), hydraulic pump (18) electric motor (19), solenoid
valve (20) and hydraulic hoses.
Figure 4 –CONTROL DESK

4.4 OPERATION
Platform lifting is carried out by the hydraulic unit which acts upon the primary cylinders.
Lowering, even though electrically controlled, is carried out by the weight of both the platforms
and the load lifted.
The hydraulic system is protected by a maximum pressure control valve thus preventing pressure
from exceeding the maximum fixed safety limit.
The lifting and lowering motion of the lift is controlled by the buttons on the control desk panel.
Whenever the lift has to be lowered to the ground and the DOWN button is pressed, the lift will
stop at about 400 mm from the ground.
In this way, the operator must verify that neither persons nor objects are within the safety area.
In this case, the FINAL LOWERING button can be pressed and the lift be lowered.
A beep sound is heard during the last travel.
Note: auxiliary lift on models “AT” e “LTAT”, has similar functioning to main lift, except
lowering up to safety height (130 mm) which is electrically controlled.
