After the construction of the lift has been changed (changing the lifting height or 
capacity for example) and after serious maintenance works (welding on carrying 
parts) an extraordinary security check must be performed by an expert. 
 

This manual contains form with a schedule for the security checks. Please us the adequate form 
for the security checks. The form should remain in this manual after they have been filled out. In 
the following there is a short description about special safety devices. 

9 Installation and Initiation 

9.1 Regulations for the installation 

•  The installation of the lift is performed by trained technicians of the manufacturer or its 

distribution partner. If the operator can provide trained mechanics, he can install the lift by 
himself. The installation has to be done according to this regulation. 

•  The standard lift must not be installed in hazardous locations or washing areas. 
•  Before installation a sufficient foundation must be proved or constructed. 
 

An even installation place has to be provided. The foundations must be based in a frost 
resistance depth, both outside and indoors, where you must reckon with frost. 

•  An standard electrical supply 3~/N+PE, 400 V, 50 Hz has to be provided. The supply line 

must be protected with T16A (VDE0100 German regulation). The minimum diameter 
amounts to 2,5 mm². (Pay attention to the tension of your state) 

•  All cable ducts have to be equipped with protective coverings to prevent accidents. 
•  After assembly of the lift, the protective grounding of the lift must be examined after 

International Electronical Commission (IEC) guidelines (60364-6-61) before first start-up by 
operators. Also an insulation resistance examination is recommended. 

9.2 Erection and doweling of the lift 

•

Install the lift according to the data sheet and the foundation plan and line it up. 

•

Put both synchronising ropes over the rolls at the top and insert them from the upper 

  side in column. (see pic. 3). Attention: The ropes must not be crossed! 
•  Connect hydraulic hose between the two columns. Don’t fix connection at opposite 

side too tight and don’t fasten the connection. Be sure that hydraulic hose doesn’t 

  hinder the course of the synchronising ropes. 
•  Put traverse topside on columns and fix it with enclosed cylinder screws and washers. 
•  The hydraulic cylinders of the opposite side was filled with oil. Before the working 

with the lift, connect the plastic tube at the cylinder-ground and at the tank. Connect 
the oil-return line (synthetic material) afterwards at both columns (see pic. 3) 

•  Check the position of the lift again. 
•  Bore holes to fix the dowels through the borings of the base plates. Clean holes with 

pressure air. Put in safety dowels with washers in borings. The manufacturer
