5.1
Positioning the vehicle
• The lift must be completely lowered before the
vehicle is driven on, and it may only be done in
the intended direction.
Lifting arm start position
• Swivel in the carrier arm and pull out properly
to the desired length. The adjustable receiving
plates must be placed at the points specified by
the vehicle manufacturer.
• Vehicles with low floor clearance or fitted with
custom devices are to be checked to see wheth-
er damage could occur before positioning the
lifting arm and raising the vehicle.
• The lifting arm block (20) must be ratcheted in af-
ter the fixture point has been reached.
5.2
Lifting the vehicle
• Lift the vehicle until the wheels are off the ground.
Push the operating lever (9) slowly forwards = "LIFT"
(17).
• The proper positioning of the lifting arm is to be
checked again after the vehicle has been raised
slightly.
• Similarly check whether the lifting arm blocks (20)
are ratcheted in. Otherwise, lower the lift and re-
position the vehicle.
• After setting down the vehicle, check the lifting
arm positions for proper seating below the fixture
points before the vehicle is lifted again.
• During lifting or lowering, the work area of the lift
should be clear or people and objects.

• Afterwards, lift the vehicle to the desired working
height.
Ensure secure vehicle placement on
the carrier plate, otherwise there is a
danger of the vehicle dropping.
See to it that the lifting arm blocks (20) are ratch-
!
eted in after the vehicle has been accepted.

5.3
Lowering the vehicle
Check that there are no people or objects in the
!
hazardous area of the lift.
• Lower the vehicle to the desired working height.
Pull the operating lever (9) slowly backwards =
"LOWER" (19).
i
For heavier vehicles, lift it slightly before lowering
to prevent an "sticking" and any corresponding
jolt during lowering.
• The entire lowering process must be observed.
• Lowering speed can be seamlessly adjusted.
• Once the lift is detected in the lowest position,
swing out the lifting arms to the start position (see
image 028).
• Move the vehicle out of the lift.
