Complete lifting of vehicles with one or more lifts is not permitted.
Always shut down and secure the lift immediately in case of malfunction. Always have

Do not operate the lift with compressed air containing condensate or dirt.
For work with strongly adhesive underbody sealants or lacquers, cover the piston rod.
Keep the piston rod and the pins of load pick-up devices free of sand and dirt.
Disconnect the lift from the compressed air supply at the end of work or before longer breaks.
Remove the removable pump rods after each work process.
CAUTION
Damage to lifts and vehicles from load pick-up devices and extended piston rods
Piston rods must always be completely retracted when entering or leaving workshop pits and
lifting platforms.
A sufficient distance must exist between load pick-up devices and vehicle.
Considerable longitudinal forces can occur when vehicle axles are lifted.
Disengage the handbrake and shift to idle, so that the wheels can roll.
Raising a vehicle
Lift the vehicle slightly with the lift at the load pick-up point.
Check for safe support and secure seating of the vehicle.
