1. Application range and appropriate use
The 2-Post lift has been tested for functionality and longevity. It is most economical and safe. It is up to you to
make use of these advantages.
This is best achieved through correct handling, good maintenance and good care of the lift. Please read the
operating instructions carefully. It contains all necessary data and shows how easy it is to keep your lift in
good working order.
The lift is designed to lift motorised vehicles; it is not meant to transport persons. If the
lift is used in car body shops, i.e. in rooms where solvents are used, please be aware of
the danger of explosion. The standard engine is not protected against explosions.
The lift is exclusively designed for lifting passenger cars or vehicles where the total
weight is not above the maximum permitted carrying capacity of the lift and where
stipulated acceptance points lie within the acceptance area of the lift.
Your lift has been furnished with a safety device which guarantees safe operation when handled in
accordance with the instructions.
During installation and operation please pay attention to the functioning of the safety device and check this
after each fault incident.
Please make sure that a function test is carried out after each fault incident.
Your vehicle should only be maintained and repaired by manufacturer trained specialists who possess the
relevant certificate.
Only original spare parts should be used.
If other spare parts are used, the CE-conformity will be null and void.
According to the regulations about the operation of vehicle lifts, lifting gear must be subjected to a safety test
by an expert after one year at the latest.
This test must be entered into the test report book.
Please note, that only manufacturer trained specialists who are certified by the manufacturer as lift experts
can test your lift and confirm its good functioning.
Customer responsibilities
1. A site complying with the specifications in chapter 6 must be provided.
2. Ensure access to a protected electrical supply complying with CE regulations, and use a qualified
