SAFETY NOTES
1. Operation of lifting platforms
This lift is specially designed for lifting motor vehicles. Users are not allowedto use it for any other purposes. The applicable
national regulations, l a w s and directives must be observed.
Only users aged 18 or above who have been instructed on how to operate the lifting platform and have proven their ability to do
so to the owner are to be entrusted w i t h unsupervised operation of lifting platforms. The task of operating the lifting platforms
must be granted in writing.
Before loading a vehicle onto the lifting platform, users should study the original operation instructions and familiarize
themselves with the operating procedures in several trial runs.
2. Checking of the lifting platforms
Checks are to be based on the following directives and regulations:
●Basicprinciplesfor testinglifting platforms
●Thebasicsafetyrequirements stipulatedinthe directive2006/42/EC
●Harmonized European standards
●Theapplicableaccidentpreventionregulations
The checks are to be organized by the user of the lifting platform. The user is responsible for appointing an expert or qualified
person to perform checking.
The user bears special responsibility if employees of the company are appointed as experts or qualified persons.
2.1. Scope ofchecking
Regular checking essentially involves performing a visual inspection and a functional test. This includes checking the condition
of the components and equipment, checking that the safety systems are complete and functioning properly and that the
inspection log book is completely filled in. The scope of exceptional checking depends on the nature and extent of any structural
modification or repair work.
2.2. Regular checking
After initial commissioning, lifting platforms are to be checked by a qualified person at intervals of not longer than one year.
A qualified person is somebody w i t h the training and experience required to possess sufficient knowledge of lifting platforms
and w h o is sufficiently familiar w i t h the pertinent national regulations, accident prevention regulations and generally
acknowledged rules of engineering to be able to assess the safe operating condition of lifting platforms.
2.3. Exceptional checking
Lifting platforms w i t h a lift height of more than 2 meters and lifting platforms intended for use w i t h people standing under the load
bearing elements of the load are to be checked by an expert prior or reuse following structural modifications and major repairs to
load bearing components.

2. Storage
The packs must be kept in a covered and protected area in a temperature range 0f -10°to +40°. They must not be exposed to
direct sunlight, rain or water.
Stacking the packs
We advise against stacking because the packs are not designed for this type of storage. The narrow base, heavy weight and
large size of the packs make stacking difficult and potentially dangerous.
If stacking is unavoidable, use all appropriate precautions:
-never stack to more than 2 meters in height.
-never make stacks of single packs. A l w a y s stack pairs of packs in a cross pattern so that the base is bigger and the resulting
stack is more stable. Once the stack is complete, restrain it using straps, ropes or other suitable methods.
A maximum of t w o packs can be stacked on lorries, in containers, and inr a i l w a y wagons, on condition that the packs are
strapped together and restrained to stop them falling.
3. Lifting and handling
The packs can be lifted and transported only by using a fork lifter. The center of gravity and lashing points are marked on the
packaging. Never attempt to hoist or transport the unit using lifting slings.
Opening the packs
When the lift is delivered make sure that it has not been damaged during transportation and that all the parts specified on the
packing list are present.
Packs must be opened adopting all the precautions required to avoid injury to persons (keep at a safe distance when cutting
the straps) or damage to parts of the machine (be careful that no parts are dropped w h i l e you are opening the packing)
Take special care with the hydraulic power unit, the control panel and the platform cylinder.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTIONS
1. General descriptions
This model is surface mounted and is mainly composed by lifting platforms, base plates, oil cylinders and a set of operation unit.
The gear pump works when p o w e r supply is connected and meanwhile oil in the pump pushes upwards the pistons of oil
cylinders. Thus, scissor brackets of the lift rise accordingly. The mechanical lock w i l l automatically engaged incase of failure of
hydraulic system.
Besides, designs like 24V working voltage of control box and limit switch, low-height alarming buzzer, anti-surge valves, etc
have fully considered your personal security.

Refer to 3.3 for the dimensions of the lift. There must also be a clearance of at least 1 meter between the lifting platform and
fixed elements (e.g. wall) in all lifting positions. There must be sufficient space at the ends of the lifting platform for driving
vehicles on and off.
To stop vehicles colliding with the ceiling, it is advisable to fit an overhead light barrier in low ceiling buildings.
1.1. Foundations and connections
The user must have the following work performed before erecting the lift.
●Constructionof the foundation following consultationw i t h themanufacturer’s customerservice or anauthorizedserviceagent.

3. General Installation Steps
Step1: Choose installation site.
Use a fork lift to place the machine at installation site as required. See Annex 1 for space requirements on the installation site.
Step 2: Connect hydraulic oil hoses.
Connect the oil hose as per the scheme for oil hose connection. (This step is very important and it is quite necessary to
understand the diagram of oil hose connection before operation)
Step 3: Connect pneumatic hoses.
Connect the pneumatic release system by the scheme of pneumatic hose connection.
Step 4: Connect electrical wires.
Refer to the electrical connection scheme. Connect the power supply and the quick connecters for limit switch.
Step 5: Fill with hydraulic oil.
ONLY C L E A N A N D FRESH OIL
ONLY
Attention: Lift must be fully lowered before changing or adding hydraulic oil
Normally it needs 22 liters of hydraulic oil.
Initially, fill the tank full w i t h about 18L of hydraulic oil . Run the main and the secondary lift for several cyclesand add another
4L into the tank.
Note:As running speed of the lift is mainly decided by the density hydraulic oil, w e suggest using NO.46 hydraulic oil w h e n
average
Temperature of the location is above 18 degree Celsius and using NO.32 hydraulic oil when temperature is below 18 degree
Celsius.
Step 6: Leveling
Check the connection of the hydraulic and electrical system before leveling operation
Review operation instructions and get familiar with lift controls by running the lift through a few cycles before leveling operation.
Leveling platforms of the main lift
1) Turnonthemainpowers w i t c h andturntheselectionswitchSA2tothemainliftandSA1to“Leveling”status.Turnthet w o

2) Push theUP button toraise theplatforms tothe maxheight and then l o w e r tothe minimum height. Repeat this for 3 cycles. Pay
attention topush the UP button very slightly and slowly whenthe platforms almost reach tothe max height. Afterthat, engage the
mechanical safety locks and push DOWN I and DOWN II to completely lower the platforms. This step may needs pretty long time
as there remainedairintheoilcylindersandnoloadontheplatforms.
3) Repeat the cyclesof step2for two or three times. Turn off the t w o leveling valvesw h e n platforms are fully lowered.Turn the t w o
