4. USER INSTRUCTIONS.
4.1 - Place the lift on a firm, flat surface
in the area it is to be used with the help of
the transport wheels (T).
4.2 - Unlock the security catches (RS) of
the transport compartment (S) and remo-
ve the legs (P) and fully insert them into
their working positions (V) checking that
they are fixed by the catches (RV).
4.3 - Check that the lift is in vertical posi-
tion using the spirit level (L) at the base of
the tower, adjust the stabilizer (Q), turning
the handle (H) if necesary.
4.4 - Release the forks (F) and place them
in its working position ready to take the
load on them. Insert the pins to block the
forks.
4.5 - DO NOT OVERLOAD THE LIFT.
MAXIMUM LOAD IS 350 kg (772 lb)
The lift should NEVER be overloaded.
Safety at work is the most important is-
sue. Place the load onto the lift using an
adequate VMB support according to the
need, use so that the weight of the load
will only be elevated in a vertical direction.
The minimum load is 25 Kg.
PRO LIFTS S.L.
3.17 - Only original replacement parts should be used.
4.6 - How to place the load:
Always load as close to the tower as
possible. The maximum load diminishes
according to the distance from the body
of the tower as illustrated in the diagram
4.6.1, which shows the load on the gravity
centre with distances to the lifting carriage
at a maximum lifting. Use a VMB adaptor
if necessary.
CAUTION
When two towers are used to elevate a
truss bridge, or many towers to elevate a
structure of any type, it is almost impos-
sible that two or more people co-ordinate
the winches elevating or lowering the
loads, at exactly the same pace. At a cer-
tain point each tower will be extended to
different height. For this reason it is ne-
cessary that the structure does not stretch
and allows for these differences.
With a rigid fixation and if the level diffe-
rence is significant, the force generated
from the handle of the winch will deform
the structure and apply a lateral force to
the lifts causing them to break and block.
