Lukas LX-Strut, Operating Instructions Manual

LUKAS products are developed and manufactured to ensure the best performance and 

quality for their intended use.

The safety of the operator is the most important consideration of product design.

In addition, the operating instructions should help to ensure that LUKAS products are 

safe to use

. In addition to the operating instructions, the generally applicable legal and other man-

datory regulations relevant to accident prevention and environmental protection are to 

be observed and referred to.

The device may only be operated by appropriately trained, safety-technically trained 

persons in order to exclude the risk of injury.

We advise all users to read the operating instructions carefully before using the device 

and to follow the instructions without restriction.

We also recommend that you have a qualified instructor instruct you on how to use the 

product.

Even if you have already received a briefing, you should read the 

following 

safety instructions

 once more.

 Make sure that no body parts or clothing are placed between the open

 visible moving parts (e.g. telescopic rod).

 Working under loads is forbidden if these are only being lifted by the 

 stabilisation system. If this work is indispensable, then

 additional sufficient mechanical supports are required.

  loads!

 and protective gloves DIN EN388:2019-03.

 ensure that there are suitable precautions to avoid current transitions or  

 high-voltage flashovers to the device.
