permanent part of your lift and should remain with the lifting tower at all times.
-If either of the manuals are misplaced please contact your dealer or the manufacturer (GUIL®).
SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
Prior to set-up, be aware of and avoid the following hazardous situations:
• Drop-offs or holes which impede the lifter being levelled using only the levelling jacks.
• Pot holes, obstacles on the floor or debris.
• Slopes that exceed the adjustment capabilities of the lifter.
• Unstable or slippery surfaces.
• Hazardous locations. Aerial obstacles or overhead electric cables.
• Inadequate surface support to withstand all load forces imposed by the lifter.
• Weather conditions and strong winds.
• The presence of unauthorised personnel.
S T-UP AND WORKING AR A SAF TY
• Do not stand under or allow personnel under the TORO lifter when the load is raised, making
sure a safety area is blocked around the tower, which should have a diameter of 1.5 times the
height of the tower.
• Do not lower the load unless the area below is clear of personnel and obstructions.
• Do not use this lifter outdoors if it is thundering and lightning or in adverse weather conditions.
Never use the TORO lifter in the event of extreme weather conditions. NOTE: Increasing the load
surface area will decrease machine stability in windy conditions.
• Never use the TORO lifter in strong or gusty wind.

• Avoid transporting the TORO lifter over uneven surfaces or ground with debris when in the folded position.
• Never use the lifter on moving surfaces or vehicles.
• The TORO lifter must always be set up on firm and even surfaces.
• This material lift is not electrically insulated and does not protect you if it gets close to or comes
into contact with electricity.
• If the TORO lifter comes into contact with electric cable, keep well away. The tower should not
be touched or used until the electricity has been switch off.
• Maintain safe distances away from electrical power lines and apparatus, allowing for mast
movement and electrical line sway or sag, in accordance with applicable local governmental regulations.
• Do not use the lifter as a ground for welding.
• The noise made while using this machine should not exceed 80 dB. If it were to make more noise contact your
supplier.
• Before installing the lifter, make sure the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 5 times the load
to be raised.
LIFT R US SAF TY INSTRUCTIONS
• The installer is responsible for adhering to the load capacity specified by the manufacturer, the safety
requirements in the place of installation and the abilities and experience of co-workers.
• Do not remove the manufacturer’s labels; if removed the guarantee will be null and void.
• Always carry out a thorough inspection of your TORO lifter before each use by following the pre-operation
inspection instructions. Do not use a tower that is damaged or doesn’t work properly.
• Never use the TORO lifter with a worn, frayed, kinked or damaged winch cable.
• Do not replace parts of the TORO lifter that are critical to stability or structure with items of
different strength or specification. If it were necessary to replace components, it is important that it is replaced
with an original spare part.
• Do not exceed the rated load capacity recommended by the manufacturer GUIL®.
• Do not lift the load unless: the blocking hook is unhooked, all the stabiliser legs are correctly
installed and the brakes on the wheels are activated.
• Do not adjust or remove the stabiliser legs while the load is raised.
• Do not raise the TORO lifter unless the load is correctly positioned, centred and secured on the forks. The centre
of gravity should always be along a vertical line.
• nsure the lifter is completely levelled before lifting the load.
• Never raise objects that make a large surface for the wind. If it is absolutely necessary please contact your
dealer or the manufacturer (GUIL®) for safety advice.
• If you are going to leave the TORO lifter unattended with a raised load make sure it can’t be
used by unauthorised personnel. Unauthorised personnel could try to use the tower without
adequate training, causing dangerous situations.

• All loads must be secured using a secondary safety system such as slings, cables or chains which must be
oversized i.e. have adequate safety margins, to ensure maximum safety.
• Do not subject the TORO lifter to a horizontal force or side load by raising or lowering a fixed or
overhanging load or resting a ladder or scaffold against any part of the machine.
• Do not use the TORO lifter as a personnel lifting platform.
• Do not climb on the mast sections or sit/stand on the forks.
• Do not tamper with the brake winch. For maintenance or repair
consult your dealer or the manufacturer.
• Keep hands away from all moving parts and pinch points when operating the tower.
• Do not grasp the winch cable while the tower is being used.
NOTE: When using this material lift in public places or industrial areas, a series of safety instructions have to be
followed that this manual can only give in part. The user must therefore inform himself/herself on the current
governmental safety instructions and take them into consideration when planning the installation.
PRE-OPERATION INSPECTION
CAUTION! A pre-operation inspection must be carried out before every use of the tower. Check the tower for
damage, improperly installed or missing parts and unauthorised modifications using the list below.
Do not use the tower if this inspection reveals any adverse conditions that could affect its safety.
WARNING! If damages or malfunctions are found in either the pre-operation inspection or the function test the
tower should be removed from service and repaired by an authorised technician.
Check the following components of the lifter:
-Winch
-Base
-Stabiliser legs, folding stabiliser legs (outriggers) and especially levelling jacks
-Aluminium mast sections
-Cable (kinks, frays or deformations)
-Wheels and castors
-Locking bolts
-Spirit level
-nsure all labels are in place and legible
Check the whole machine for:
-Dents and damage
-Corrosion or rust
-Cracks in welding
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! Always use logic and common sense when using the lifter. This is a complex product designed for
professional use and should not be operated by amateurs. nsure all personnel are correctly trained and
instructed on the content of the manual and the dangers related with operating the lifter.
S T-UP
The lifter can be used with the stabiliser legs installed in the front of the base (A) or in the back of the base (B).
CAUTION! Check the work area for overhead obstructions or possible hazards before use (signs, cables,
balconies, etc.). ALWAYS follow the set-up and working area and lifter use safety instructions in this manual.

A.- INSTALLATION WITH FRONT STABILISER LEGS
Follow the instructions below for the correct installation of the TORO lifter:
1.- Position the TORO lifter at the desired work site.
2.- Pull the stabiliser legs out of the base.
3.- Insert the legs into the front sockets with the wheels downwards, blocking them with the magnetic locking
bolts.
The stabiliser legs should be fixed at the fully extended position. If any other position is required please consult
the manufacturer (GUIL®).
4.- Level the lifter.
4.1.- Take the Allen key supplied out of the manual holder.
4.2.- Unblock the levelling jack by loosening the M10 bolt found on the side of the leg.
4.3.- Adjust the levelling jacks until the legs are firm and free of wobbling, levelling the lifter from the
front axis with the help of the spirit level.

4.4.- Block the levelling jack by tightening the M10 bolt found on the side of the leg but not too tight so
as not to cause any damage to the thread on the screw stem.
5.- Unfold the side stabiliser legs (outriggers):
5.1.- Unfold the leg with the sliding bar that is furthest away from the lifter first.
5.2.- Press the blocking lever that protrudes from the bottom of the adjusting box and at the same time
unfold the outriggers down to the ground.
5.3 Adjust the levelling jacks until the legs are firm and free of wobbling levelling the lifter from the
sideways axis with the help of the spirit level.
