Chapter 3 Safety cau�on
Read this chapter carefully and completely because it contains important information for
the safety of the operator and the person in charge of maintenance.
The lift has been designed and built for lifting vehicles and making them stand
above level in a closed area any other use is forbidden.
The manufacturer is not liable for possible damages to people, vehicles or
objects resulting from an improper or unauthorized use of the lift.
For operator and people safety, a square space for a safety area at least 39.3" free away
from the lift must be vacated during lifting and lowering. The lift must be operated only
from the operator’s control site in this safety area.
Operator’s presence under the vehicle, during working, is only admitted when the vehicle
is lifted and the safety lock is engaged.
Never use the lift when safety devices are off-line. People, the lift and the
vehicles lifted can be seriously damaged if these instructions are not followed.
3.1 General warnings
The operator and the person in charge of maintenance must follow accident-prevention
laws and rules in force in the country where the lift is installed.
They also must carry out the following:
Neither remove nor disconnect hydraulic, electric or other safety devices;
Carefully follow the safety indications applied on the machine and included in the
manual;
Observe the safety area during lifting;
Net weight 411.2kg / 906.5Lbs

8
Be sure the motor of the vehicle is off, the gear engaged and the parking brake put
on;
Be sure only authorized vehicles are lifted without exceeding the maximum lifting
capacity;
Verify that no one is on the arms during lifting or standing.
3.2 Safety device
To avoid overloading and possible breaking, the following safety devices have been used:
A maximum pressure valve is placed inside the hydraulic unit to prevent excessive
weight.
The maximum pressure valve has been preset by the manufacturer to a
proper pressure. DO NOT try to adjust it to overrun the rated lifting
capacity.
A mechanical safety mechanism is built inside each side with automatic engagement.
It is strictly forbidden to modify any safety device. Always ensure the
safety device for proper operation during the service.
3.3 Risk list
Risks for personnel
This heading illustrates potential risks for the operator, maintenance fitter, or any
other person present in the area around the lift, result from incorrect use of the
lift.
Risk of crushing
Possible if the operator controlling the lift is not in the specified position at the
control panel. When the platforms (and vehicle) are lowering the operator must
never be partly or completely underneath the movable structure. Always remain
in the control zone.
Risk of crushing (personnel)
When the platforms and the vehicle are lowering, personnel are prohibited from
entering the area beneath the movable parts of the lift. The lift operator must not
start the maneuvers unit it has been clearly established that there are no person
in potentially dangerous positions.
Risk of impact
Caused by the parts of the lift or the vehicle that is positioned at head height.
When, due to operational reasons, the lift is stopped at relatively low elevations
personnel must be careful to avoid impact with parts of the machine not marked
with special colors.
Risk of vehicle moving

9
Cause by operations involving the application of force sufficient to displace the
vehicle. In the case of large or particular heavy vehicles, sudden movement could
create an unacceptable overload or uneven load sharing. Therefore, before lifting
the vehicle and during all operations on the vehicle, make sure that it is properly
topped by the hand brake.
Risk of vehicle falling from lift
This hazard may arise in the case of incorrect positioning of the vehicle on the
platforms, incorrect stopping of the vehicle, or in the case of vehicles of
dimensions that are not compatible with the capacity of the lift.
Never attempt to perform tests by driving the vehicle while it is on the platforms
Never leave objects in the lowering area of the movable parts of the lift.
Risk of slipping
Cause by lubricant contamination of the floor around the lift. The area beneath
and immediately surrounding the lift and also the platforms must be kept clean.
Remove any oil spills immediately. When the lift is fully down, do not walk over
the platforms or the cross-pieces in places that are lubricated with a film of
grease for functional requirements. Reduce the risk of slipping by wearing safety
shoes.
Risk of electric shock
Risk cause by electric shock in areas of the lift housing electrical wiring.
Do not use jets of water, steam solvents or paint next to the lift, and take special
care to keep such substances clear of the electrical control panel.
Risks related to inappropriate lighting
The operator and the maintenance fitter must be able to assure that all the areas
of the lift are properly and uniformly illuminate compliance with the laws in force in
the place of installation.
Risk of component failure during operation
The manufacturer has used appropriate materials and construction techniques in
relation to the specified use of the machine in order to manufacture a reliable and
safe lift. Note however, that the lift must be used in conformity with manufacturer’s
prescriptions, and the frequency of inspections and maintenance works
recommended.
Risk related to improper use
Persons are not permitted to stand or sit on the platforms during the lift
maintenance or when the vehicle is already lifted.
The handling of safety devices is strictly forbidden.
Never exceed the maximum carrying capacity of the lift, make sure the vehicles to be lifted

10
have no load.
It is therefore essential to adhere scrupulously to all regulations regarding use,
maintenance and safety contained in this manual.
