WARNING 

 

Risk of unexpected startup. Incorrectly functioning control elements (handheld 

control, control panel, foot controls) can result in injury if the liftgate could not be 

shut down under optimal conditions. Be sure to perform regular inspections 

(maintenance schedule) of the control elements. 
 

 

WARNING 

 

Risk of control system failure/malfunction, resulting in a restart after a malfunction or 

power failure. 
Without shutdown signals, the liftgate can enter a critical state. People on or near 

the liftgate could be injured. 
 

 

WARNING 

 

Risk of injury during disassembly caused by sudden release of pretensioned 

springs. 

Use only trained and qualified maintenance personnel. 

 

WARNING 

 

Risk of injury during disassembly/assembly (particularly of safety devices, 

e.g. removing solenoid valves) due to improper or incorrect assembly/disassembly 

Use only trained and qualified maintenance personnel. 
MAXON offers training in assembly, maintenance, and accident prevention 

regulations (UVV). 
 

 

WARNING 

 

Risk of unexpected startup. If the priority circuit is defective, the liftgate can be 

unexpectedly activated from a second control point, resulting in injury. 
 

 

WARNING 

 

Removing, modifying, or bypassing safety devices can result in injury. Do not 

modify, bypass, or remove safety devices. 
 

 

WARNING 

 

Fingers are at risk of being crushed or sheared when the lifting gear is disassembled 

or assembled. 
Be careful at the connecting points between the lifting gear and vehicle.
