EdmoLift Products Manual
Operation of the Lift Table, Arm Lift, Pallet Lift and Tilt
1
The hydraulic unit is connected to the electric mains. Check that the power pack voltage conforms to the main voltage.
When the lift is operated the control box needs to be positioned so that the operator has a clear view of the lift and the
load.
NOTE! No persons are permitted within the operational area off the lift or to be within the area where there is
a risk off the load falling off during tilting operations.
Only authorized personnel may operate EdmoLift products
EdmoLift products must be operated safely, carefully and with full attention! The control functions UP, DOWN and TILT
are operated by "deadman" control, i.e. when a control button is released the machine stops at the position achieved.
After use the platform should be lowered to the lowest position, and the mains supply switched off by means of the
mains isolator switch. If there is any risk of unauthorized use the mains isolator should be locked in the OFF position.
The control unit can also be locked.
2 Lowering the lift
Ensure there is no risk of injury to persons, or damage to objects when the lift is lowered. Ensure that the platform
cannot catch on any obstacle when lowering.
3 Safety functions
The operation of the safety frame must be checked on commencement of each work shift. If the safety frame has
been activated the cause for the stop must be determined and eliminated. The UP-button must be pressed briefly
(reset) before lowering can restart.
NOTE! The loading edge of the U Arm Lift does not have safety frame protection. Holes to assemble the load
restraints are located in the platform.
EdmoLift lifts with hydraulic system Type II are equipped with cylinder mounted electrically controlled check valves.
These open simultaneously with the lowering valve when the lift is lowered. The electrically controlled check valve
prevents the platform lowering except when the DOWN-button is pressed.
The valve block on the power pack contains a pressure compensated flow control valve by means of which the
lowering speed can be adjusted. The maximum permitted lowering speed and platform radial speed when tilting is 100
mm/sec.
On the control box there is an Emergency Stop button, which stays in the pressed position when it has been activated.
When an Emergency Stop button is pressed all electrically controlled movements are stopped. When the reason for
activating the Emergency stop has been established, and safe working conditions prevail, the Stop-button is turned
clockwise to release the button and cancel the stop function.
More than one Emergency Stop device may be required on lifts in order to ensure safe working conditions.
