ceed the listed ratio of the types:
1730 - 1730 CH and 1731 at a capacity of 3000 kg 3 to 2
and of types:
1735, 1735FL at a capacity of 3500 kg 2 to 1
The vehicle must always rest on all 4 supporting pads
The vehicle must be picked up at the points stipulated by the manufacturer.

The vehicle must be picked up at the points stipulated by the manufacturer.

The vehicle and the lift must be observed during all vertical movements.

While the lift is operated, the danger area must be kept free. Travelling on or climing
up on the lift is not permitted. Persons under the age of 18 must not operate the lift.

The safety devices must not be changed in their position or function.

Repairs should only be carried out by authorised specialists.

The statutory accident prevention rules must be adhered to.

No work must be carried out on the vehicle during vertical movements.

The nominal load shown on the lift must not be exceed.

After a brief lifting of the vehicle it should be checked that all lifting arms are securely
bolted. If necessary, the vehicle should be lowered again and by a slight oscillating
movement of the lifting arm the bolt should slip into place.

During assembly and dismantling of vehicle units the eccentricity of the centre of
gravity must be taken into account
.
Take care when vehicles are loaded!
(other total weight and weight displacement)

If electrical welding on the vehicle or on the


lift have to be done, please turn the main switch on position O

If the safety instructions are not observed there is


a danger of injury!

edition 05.2004 EDV 69.95.207E


10
Remaining Risks:

During vertical movements of the lift, no person is permitted to


stand underneath a vehicle on the lift or in the danger area. If this
prohibition is not adhered to, there may be the danger of injury.
The operator must be expressly instructed to activate the up and
down switch only if no person is standing in the danger area.

The foot protection corresponds to statutory regulations, but this


does not exclude all imaginable possibilities of injury, but only
those which are probable according to experience. The operator
must be instructed to activate the up and down switch only if no
person is standing in the danger area.
Before each use, the protective device of the lift must be checked
for its perfect functionality.

If a vehicle has been mounted onto the lift according to instruc-


tions, there will be no danger of accidents. If, however, the vehicle
has not been mounted according to instructions, there is the dan-
ger of injury. Special care must be taken with loaded vehicles or in
cases of eccentricity of centre of gravity through mounting or dis-
mantling of heavy parts. The operator must be instructed to check
the mounting of the vehicle onto the lift before work commences.

3. Product Description
This lift consists mainly of two equal lift columns which are driven by an electric motor: the control column
with integrated base plate and the auxiliary column with an integrated base plate. There is no mechanical
connection between the lift columns. Each of the columns contains lifting spindles and a lifting carriage
with the load accepting devices.

The two electrical motors drive the lifting spindles by means of a sturdy and low-noise ribbed V-belt. Inte-
grated thermo-sensors in the motor coil winder act as an overload monitor. The spindles house the various
types of nuts:
-supporting nuts with safety nuts- which are connected with the two lifting carriages and, depending on the
direction of the drive, carry out the up or down movements. The two lifting carriages are guided by four glid-
ing pieces in each column. The spindle supporting nut system with carriages are maintenance free for one
year if used as repair lift.

The necessary synchronisation of the carriage is guaranteed by an electronic synchronisation monitor. In the
event that the two carriages are not in parallel (for example, due to one-sided load, insufficient lubrication,
etc.) the synchronisation monitor will adjust the deviation within a distance of approx. 10 mm. This is done by
stopping the advanced carriage until the carriage which is lagging behind is at the same level again. This
process can be observed during a lifting action, possibly several times.

The drive is activated depending on the input by means of a key pad on the control panel; it is switched on
via an analogue path measuring counter in the upper and lower end position.
After releasing the key pad these return to “0” position automatically and the movement of the lift is
stopped in each position of the load uptake device.

The lift is fitted with safety devices, for example, the supporting nut break safety device which will transfer
the load to a free running safety nut in the case of a worn thread. During this process a mechanical safety
system is activated which will switch off the lift via the analogue path measuring counter and prevent a re-
start.

There is also the oscillating arm arrest which locks the lifting arms in their oscillating movement after a lift-
ing distance from the base position of approximately 100 mm in order to avoid that the supported vehicle
slips of the load bearing device.

The foot protection is activated via the analogue path measuring counter which stops the lowering of the
load automatically in the danger area (120mm above the platform base). By pressing the key pad
“SENKEN” (down) again, the load carrier can be brought back into base position. This down-action in the
danger area will activate a warning signal tone.
The thermo-sensor in the drive motors causes the motors to switch off when they are too hot and after a
cooling-off time (of approx. 10-15 minutes) indicates that the lift can be used again. An arch, which can be
simply assembled, is placed above the control column to the auxiliary column, , serving as a safety chan-
nel for electrical cables (power supply, monitoring and control cables).
The lifting arms are, depending on the type, constructed resembling a single or double telescope which
can be adjusted to the required working length. The long single telescopic lifting arms in direction “up” at
the back and the short single or double telescopic lifting arms “up” in the front. This ensures that the doors
are free on both sides.

The vehicle to be raised is to be placed in such a way that the front door hinges are in the area of the lift
columns, so that a large door opening angle is created
The aim should be to direct the motor side of the vehicle towards the short oscillating arms (centre of grav-
ity of the vehicle should be at the centre of the lift if possible).

7. Assembly and Installation
7.1. Area layout:
6000
550

Lay out the lift in the space where it is to remain. In doing so take into account the upward drive di-
rection of the lift. The control column will be in upward drive direction on the right hand side.

Make sure that there is an adequate safety gap towards the walls or
neighbouring work places (min 50 cm emergency exit).

7.2. Dowelling of the columns:


Before the dowels are placed in position, check the concrete quality of the anchor ground for the
permitted standard.
Place columns in position and adjust to the stipulated measurements. The lifts should be plumb.
They must not lean inwards. The columns may slightly lean outwards. If necessary, place additional
metal sheets under the base plate.

Make sure that the columns cannot fall over

edition 05.2004 EDV 69.95.207E


25
When the columns have been erected, check that the measurements correspond with the
datasheet.
Align the columns with the aid of a spirited level.
They should tilt slightly outwards after dowelling.
Using a masonry drill (nominal drill diameter=φdo, cutting average=φdo +0,55mm) place the
drill bit over the drill holes of the base plate and drill approx. h1+ tfix (next page) deep into the
concrete base.

Regulations for dowelling

General
The dowel may only be used as a standard unit as delivered for its fixing purpose. Individual parts
must not be replaced.
The assembly of the dowel to be anchored must be carried out in accordance with section 3.1 of the
construction drawings and the assembly instructions of the company. Before placing the dowels, the
concrete quality of the foundation where the dowel is to be anchored must be checked. It must not be
below the concrete quality assigned to the permitted load and not above B55.
Drill hole preparation
The position of the drill hole must be such that damage to the reinforcement is avoided.
The hole should be drilled with a hard metal hammer drill at right angles to the surface of the anchor
base. The hard metal hammer drill must comply with the stipulations in the information leaflet of the I n-
stitute for Building Technology about “Nominal values for quality assurance for hammer drills with cu t-
ting plates from hard metal (hard metal hammer drills) which ar used the drilling holes for dowelling
connections (edition June 1977/Amendment October 1979).
Compliance with the nominal drill values must be proven in the form of a test certificate 3.1 A to DIN EN
10 204 or in form of a test symbol (see information leaflet) of the Testing Guild of Builders’ drills e.V.,

Some of the opposite columns of the new type range 17.. are equipped with a metal alloy channel to which a
second operating element with one or two sockets and an air plug is attached.

Type 1730CH is equipped with only one socket and one air plug.

The metal alloy channel always accompanies the delivery separately so that it does not get damaged during
transport. When the lift is installed, the metal channel is mounted as follows:

After unscrewing two cross head screws from the metal alloy channel, remove the trapezoid lid and let it
hang freely. Unscrew the 4 hexagon nuts DIN934 M6 with their washers, which have already been screwed
on the bolts of the opposite column in order to fix the metal alloyed channel.

Attach the metal channel to the opposite column and fix with the same 4 hexagon nuts DIN934 M6.

Insert the electrical cables into the opening of the head plate and push further down in the metal channel.
Connect conduit no. 1 of the triple conduit cable to the free clip of the fuse. Connect conduit no. 2 to clip N

The upper and lower stop position are adjusted by factory. The two potentiometers which are re-
sponsible for measuring the lifting carriage position, the synchroniziation control, the end positions
and the lifting nut control and which are mounted on the end plates are adjusted to. The regulating
by factory from the lower position (R3 in middle position on the control platform) guarantees that the
Lifting-carriage does not drive on ground. O nly in case the lower stop position at one or both co-
lumn is not deep enough adjusted, regulate with the trimmpoti R3.

The potentiometers must be aligned as follows:

1.) Do not place the toothed belts on the plastic wheels -> During the movement of
the lift carriages the toothed wheels of the potentiometers must not move.

2.) The lift carriages (main/opposite column) are driven into the mechanical reference po-
sition (into lower end position in each case).

Drive control and opposite column into lower end position:

a.) Press H-Mode (Help Mode Key) until signal initiator sends out bleeps.
b.) Insert service plug on the electronic board (10-pole box socket).
c.) LED is switched off, the bleeps can still be heard.
d.) Press H-Mode key -> LED turns orange.
e.) By pressing the key “down” both columns can be sent descending.
Note: Do not drive to far into the lower end position. There is no active limit switch and if
the lifting carriage drives on the floor, the column base plate or an obstacle, this can lead
to damage of the control system.

Drive opposite column into lower end position:

f.) Press H-key again -> LED turns green.


g.) Opposite column can be moved in either direction with the up / down key.
h.) Drive the auxiliary column in this mode into the lower end position.

Drive control column into lower end position:

i.) Press H-Taste again -> LED turns red.


i.) Main column can be moved in either direction with the up / down key.
j.) In this mode, drive the main column into the lower end position.
k.) Switch off lift with main switch.

3.) Alignment of both potentiometers

m.) Switch lift on again -> Led is off.


n.) Press the “up” key and hold down.
o.) Next: also press the “down” key twice until the LED blinks alternately green -
orange

edition 05.2004 EDV 69.95.207E

Alignment of potentiometer opposite column
p.) Case 1 : No tone is audible -> potentiometer is already in correct position.
When turning the potentiometer wheel a bleeping tone must be audible.
Next: turn again until the bleeps are no longer audible.
Case 2: A continuous tone (far from the alignment point) or an interval tone (near the
alignment point is audible.

Turn the potentiometer wheel cautiously in the direction of the lifting carriage
until the tone stops (alignment point is reached) or until mechanical bumper is hit (end
position of potentiometer). In this case the potentiometer wheel must be turned back
by approx. One quarter turn until the tone stops (alignment point is reached).

q.) Position the toothed belt from the lifting carriage on the potentiometer wheel. No tone
should now be audible. Should a tone be audible nevertheless, then the potentiometer
position must be corrected.

Alignment of potentiometer main column.


r.) Press the “up ” key and hold down.
s.) Next: also press the “down” key until the LED blinks alternately red / orange.
t.) Further alignment, see points e.) , f.)
u.) Poti R3 (on main platform) in middle position
v.) Switch off lift.
w.) Turn Poti R3 slightly in clockwise direction
x.) Remove service plug.
y.) Switch lift on again.
z.) Lower to the end position and check the position of both lifting carriages

Note: If the lifting carriage of the control and opposite column is now not at the same level then
• Alter the toothed belt by one tooth position at the poti wheel
Repeat this procedure until both lifting carriages have the same level.

Setting upper or lower end position

Two potentiometers for setting the upper (potentiometer R4) and the lower end position (po-
tentiometer R3) are available on the platform.

When both lifting carriages have reached the same level, then align the lower end position
with the Poti R3.
Note: During adjustment, take into account the after-running of the lifting carriages when
they are lowered. After 1 – 2 weeks the lifting carriages have more after-running than
in a new condition.
Note: During lowering, switching off is made via the poti values and the adjustment of
the Poti R3 on the control platform. There is no additional limit switch active and ad-
justing the potentiometer wrongly leads to the lifting carriage driving on the floor or
the column base plates and can damage the drive system.

Before ascending to the upper end position, check that the Poti R4 is not placed at the limit
stop but in central position on the control platform.
If ascending to the upper end position takes place without checking the poti alignment, the
lifting carriage can drive against the end plate mechanically and the sliding elements of the
lifting carriages are damaged and the drive system can be damaged.

edition 05.2004 EDV 69.95.207E


37
Initial operation
According to VGB 14 initial operation must be done by a specialist in the presence of the
owner/user.
The specialist is obliged to instruct the owner/user in the use of the lift and to point
out the dangers through wrong operation, the safety indications according to the
current law and the behaviour when faults occur.

It must be certified by the specialist in the enclosed test book.


Drive the vehicle in the middle between the two columns. Swivel the lifting arms under the vehicle and po-
sition them under the points stipulated by the vehicle manufacturer.
Take care that the vehicle is evenly placed on all 4 carrying platforms.
In cases where our standard turntables are not suitable for the safe locating of a vehicle (i.e. off-
road vehicle), we recommend the wide range of accessories for special purposes..
Please observe the operational safety regulations.

Raising
The vehicle doors must be kept shut. Press the key “raise”(Heben) and observe the vehicle and
the lift. When the vehicle wheels have lost contact with the floor (after a height
of approx. 30 cm), the lifting process must be interrupted and the rubber turntables under the ve-
hicle must be checked for safe positioning. Equally important is a sight check of the lifting arm
locks. The lifting process can be continued only after checking that the automatic toothed seg-
ments of the lifting arm stopper are firmly anchored on each lifting arm /
lifting carriage. Check that nobody is present in the danger area. Press the “raise” key until the
vehicle has been hoisted to the required working height. When the lift has reached the upper end
position, it stops automatically. During the raising process neither persons nor objects must be
present in the working area. Avoid jerky raising actions.

Lowering
Check the danger area. During the lowering process neither persons nor objects must be present
in the working area of the lift or on the lifting platform.
Press the key “lower”, observe the vehicle and the lifting platform until the required height or the
danger area of approx. 120 mm above the lift base position has been reached.
At this height the lift stops automatically. If the key “lower” is pressed again, the lift can be driven
back into its base position.
During this lowering process in the danger area a warning signal tone is audible.
If one of the lifting carriages advances, so that the vehicle is out of phase, a brake on the ad-
vancing motor will be operated by the alignment control system until the lifting carriage which is
lagging behind has reached the same level.
During a working process the lift can undergo several alignments.
Jerking movement during lowering by pressing the lowering key must be avoided because this
will cause extreme oscillation of the lifting platform. When the lower end position has been
reached, the lift stops automatically and the lock of the lifting arm stopper is released automati-
cally.
The lifting arms which are positioned under the vehicle loading points must be pushed together
and swivelled back into their base position. Drive the vehicle out of the lifting platform.

Note:

The process described for the initial operation applies to each lifting and lowering process of the
vehicle.

edition 05.2004 EDV 69.95.207E

9. Fault finding / problem solving
If unusual faults occur on the lift, switch off the power supply , take
it out of action, secure it against unauthorised use and inform
customer service.
All repairs must only be carried out by trained and qualified spe-
cialists.

As a general rule, the customer service should always be notified when faults occur.
Noises during raising and lowering movements:

Cause:
Inadequate lubrication, worn spindle bearings, loose ribbed V-belt

Solution:
Grease spindle and tracks of the lifting carriage gliding units, check spindle bearings and renew if
necessary, tighten (replace) ribbed V-belt.
Swivel arm stopper does not function:
Cause:
Inadequate lubrication of the carrying bolts and toothed rings, toothed rings are worn,
lower end position of the lift not adjusted

Solution:
Grease carrying bolts and toothed rings, replace stopper unit

Automatic swivel arm stopper does not function in the lower end position:
Cause:
Inadequate lubrication of the carrying bolts and toothed rings, lower end position of the lift not ad-
juste, adjustment of the unlatching device inadequate

Solution:
Grease carrying bolts and toothed rings, adjust lower end position of the lift, adjust the unlatching
device

Lift does not switch on electrically any longer:


Cause:
Main power supply and control leads interrupted, main switch defective, electronic defective, ther-
mal protection switch of the motors switches off (error code 11), carrying nut broken (error code 4X
or 6X depending on the column), main fuse of the electronic (on the control platform) defective.

Solution:
Check (replace) leads and connections for broken wires, replace main switch and electronics, let
motors cool down after frequent use, when carrying nut breakage has
occured, take the lift out of action immediately and secure it against unauthorised use.

edition 05.2004 EDV 69.95.207E


39
Lift runs at an angle and stops:

Recognise the error acoustically and visually; determine the error by using the code table and solve
it or inform the repair service, naming the error code.

Emergency lowering at power failure:


Power failure and a vehicle is still on the lift:

Switch off at the main switch and secure it against switching on again.

Remove protective covers from the column heads.

Insert a suitable key into each of the crown nuts on the upper end of the lifting spindle.

By turning the two lifting spindles simultaneously and evenly the vehicle can be moved slowly
downwards.

If movement is sluggish because of damage to the motor bearings:


Before turning the spindles, loosen the ribbed V-belt on the motor drive activators.

Emergency lowering with the service plug:


When emergency lowering is carried out with the service plug it must be taken into ac-
count that the switch box at the control columns must be opened for this purpose and
that touching of live parts is dangerous.
The power supply must be switched off, the hood on the control side must be pushed upwards and
secured against sliding down. The switch box is then opened, the power supply can be connected
again and the work process can be carried out as follows:
1. Press H-mode (Help mode key), signal initiator sends out a bleep.
2. Insert the service plug on the electronic board (10-pole box socket).
3. LED is switched off
4. Press H-mode key -> LED turns orange.

By pressing the “down” key both columns can be moved down.

It must be checked that both lifting carriages are descending simultaneously and evenly. If
faults in the movement are noticed, the lowering process must be stopped immediately. The
stipulated working process must be adhered to, since faulty handling can change the control
mode and a function is called up.

Next, the main switch of the lift should be set up to “0” position and be secured against switching on.
The customer service must be informed.
Driving against an obstacle :
If the lifting carriage or the lifting arm drives against an obstacle through carelessness of the opera-
ting personal, only the motor blocks, of which lifting carriage or lifting arm stands on the obstacle.
The 2 post lift disconnect, as soon as the other lifting carriage drives through the range of control of a-
bout 40.mm. As an extra protective arrangement are at the motor windings temperature probes instal-
led, which disconnect control current by overload motors. An further servicing of the 2 post lift is pos-
sible after ca. 10 Minutes later (wait for the cooling of the electro motor). After blocking from the
motor the belt has to be checked for possible damage and may be changed by another. Please
contact your service- partner (dealer).

Introduction:

The control of the 1730/31/35 range is a micro-processor controlled system.


Next to the actual selection of two keys (UP/DOWN) and the activating of two light diodes and the
motors, a large number of system tests is carried out during operation, which guarantee the perfect
functioning of all important system components.

Operating panel:

The control panel has the following operating / display elements:

One key “UP”, one key “DOWN”, 1 light diode and one signal initiator.
In addition, a key is attached to the control platform which makes a single drive action of the stage
possible in emergency.

General information:

After switching on, the control unit is in the so-called stand-by mode:
This mode is indicated by the colour orange of the light diode.

Before the actual raising or lowering process the respective key must be pressed for safety reasons
(protection against unauthorised operation). -> The LED changes its colour from orange to green,
indicating that the lift is ready.
If the key is pressed again, the movement of the two lifting carriages is activated.
If the key has not been pressed for approx. 30 seconds, the control of the lift changes into the
stand-by mode and the colour of the LED changes from green to orange.

During operation (travel) the following standard situations can occur:

1.) The lifting carriages reach their end position


-> green LED is blinking
2.) The entrance for the external upper or lower end switch becomes active: -> Green
LED is blinking.
3.) One or both motors are overheating.
-> Error code 11 is shown.

An error code is displayed as follows:

Acoustically with a defined tone signal and phase timing, for example error 11;
The “tens” are shown first by a long tone signal and the “units” follow as a short tone signal.
Before the repeat of the error code there is a pause.
Parallel to the acoustic signal the error code is also displayed visually on the red LED
(its length is identical with the acoustic signal).
Error code 11 is shown as follows: 1 x long tone, 1 x short tone, 1 x pause
This sequence is repeated until the motors have cooled down.Error 11 is the only error where
the control switches back into stand-by position (ready).

10. Monitoring of Safety Devices
Safety Devices:
Carrying nut break protection:

The lift has a protection which sets the lift out of


action if the carrying nut is defective.
Both the carrying nut and the safety nut are in a
protected position within the lifting carriage and
are not accessible from outside.
During normal operation of the lift the safety nut
runs freely. If the thread of the carrying nut is
worn, the lifting carriage falls onto the safety
nut which has so far run freely and a rod is
pressed out of its anchoring (its expected
breakage point).
The opposite breakage point is positioned on
the upper edge of the lifting carriage (see page
36).

At the rod a toothed belt is fixed which runs


over a roller of the analogue path measuring
device (potentiometer) and a weight is fixed on
the other end of the toothed belt as a counter
force.
Because of the different movements, the
analogue path measuring device has control
over the carrying nut break, the upper and
lower end switch points, the switching off
when hitting an obstacle, the switching-off
for foot protection
and the exact control of the parallel run of the
lifting carriages.

Carrying nut wear and tear test :


To realize the control wear and tear test, it is necessary to take down the spindle
cover plate from the column opening.
Through the viewing window in the lifting carriage (covered through a vent plug)
measure the distance (test dimension) between the lower edge of the cage ring and
the upper edge of the safety nut (figure topside) by using the feeler caliper or
measure by using a measuring gauge.
The distance, if new, is 13,2mm and may be at minimum 11,2mm.
After that, put in the vent plug and install the spindle cover plate.

edition 05.2004 EDV 69.95.207E


44
11. Maintenance
At normal use maintenance on the vehicle lift must be carried out
once a year.
At more than average use, i.e. more than 20 lifting sessions per
day, we recommend that maintenance is done every six months in
order to maintain the safety and the value of the vehicle lift:.

• Cover the spindles with grease


• Check (or replace) gliding units of the lifting carriages for wear and tear
• Lubricate gliding tracks of the lifting carriage gliding units
• Grease lifting arm sections, carrying bolt and locking devices
• Grease turntable spindles, check anti-twist devices
• Check (or replace) rubber washer of the turntable
• Check (replace) gliding units of the lifting arms
• The wear and tear size between the lower edge of the cage ring and the upper
edge at the shaft of the safety nut is to be checked.
If the measured clearance (test dimension) is less than or equal to 11,2mm,
the carrying –and safety nut must be renewed as a complete new nut system by
duly authorized trained personal.

• Check (or replace) function and condition of the locking devices of the lifting arms,
ensure their smooth running. Lubricate not only the movable bolt
but also the conical toothed wheel work with spray fat.
• Check the function of the analogue path measuring initiator
• Check initial tension and condition of the ribbed V-belts, adjust tension and, if necessary,
replace them
• Check all screw connections
• Check the dowel connection with a torque key
The exchange of load bearing parts and control components must always carried out by an expert
to ensure that the stipulated values, which are necessary for perfect operating of the vehicle lift, are
adhered to. Otherwise the life span of the exchanged parts and the overall function would be lim-
ited.

For statutory inspections we recommend entering into a maintenance


contract (safety checks and maintenance) with one of our authorised
customer service partners. Only he may enter test results into the record
book and present you with an “HAK” test plaque which confirms the
safety and functioning of the vehicle lift.

for which people are necessary underneath the load suspension equipment or load, may only be operated
once they have been inspected by an expert and any deficiencies have been rectified.
(2) The inspection according to paragraph 1 may be omitted if a design inspection has been carried out by an inspection
authority according to § 6 of the "General administrative regulation pertaining to the Technical equipment law" and a
certificate of conformity exists confirming that the lift corresponds to the inspected design, has been properly manu-
factured with respect to the generally acknowledged Engineering norms and can be used for its intended purpose
according to the specifications of the accident prevention regulations (design-inspected lift).
(3) Lifts which are not supplied in an operational state must be inspected by an expert before commissioning.
Regular inspections § 39
Lifts must be inspected by an expert at intervals of at least one year after commissioning.
Exceptional inspections § 40
Lifts with lifting heights of over 2 m and lifts intended for carrying people on the load suspension equipment
or for which people are necessary underneath the load suspension equipment or load, must be inspected by
an expert after alterations to the design and after substantial Repairs to supporting parts before operation is
resumed.
Content of inspection § 41
(1) The pre-commissioning inspection according to § 38 Section 1 includes observance of the specifications of these
accident prevention regulations regarding construction and equipment and the generally acknowledged Engineer-
ing norms. It consists of a preliminary, construction and acceptance inspection:
1 The preliminary inspection includes checking of the design and manufacturing documents.
2.The construction inspection includes checking that the lift is consistent with the design documents, check-
ing for proper manufacturing and checking of the completeness and correctness of the entries in the in-
spection book.
3.The acceptance inspection includes checking of the loading capacity, checking for the effectiveness of the safety
devices and checking for proper installation.
The preliminary and construction inspection must be carried out on the manufacturer's premises.
The acceptance inspection of movable lifts must be carried out on the premises of the manufacturer or
customer, and the acceptance inspection of fixed lifts on the premises of the customer.
(2) Regular inspection according to § 39 is essentially a visual and functional inspection. It includes checking of the
condition of the components and devices, checking of the completeness and effectiveness of the safety devices and
checking of the completeness of the entries in the inspection book.

During operation (travel) the following standard situations can occur:

1.) The lifting carriages reach their end position


-> green LED is blinking

2.) The entrance for the external upper or lower end switch becomes active:
-> Green
LED is blinking.

4.) One or both motors are overheating.


-> Error code 11 is shown.

An error code is displayed as follows:

Acoustically with a defined tone signal and phase timing, for example
error 11;
The “tens” are shown first by a long tone signal and the “units” follow as
a short tone signal.
Before the repeat of the error code there is a pause.

Parallel to the acoustic signal the error code is also displayed visually
on the red LED
(its length is identical with the acoustic signal).

Error code 11 is shown as follows: 1 x long tone, 1 x short tone,


1 x pause
This sequence is repeated until the motors have cooled down.
Error 11 is the only error where the control switches back into stand-by
position (ready).

The following errors can be solved by the operator himself (these are mainly due to hitting an ob-
stacle):
