SAFETY

It is recommended that you read this chapter carefully and thoroughly as important notions about the safety regulations to be adopted by the operator and other users are provided, also in the event of improper use of the lift.
The following text provides clear explanations of certain situations of risk or danger that may arise during use or maintenance of the deck. It is also illustrated the installed security device, indicating the correct use of this system, the  residual risks and the operating procedures to be used (general precautions to eliminate potential dangers).
The lift is designed and built for lifting vehicles and to keep them lifted to the desired position in a circumscribed environment. Any other use of the lift is forbidden.
Especially, lifts are not suitable for:
– spray washing vehicles;
– persons lifting;
– crushing purpose through pressure system;
– used as elevator;
– used ad single vehicle parts elevator.

The manufacturer is not responsible for any injury to persons or damage to vehicles and other property caused by the incorrect and unauthorized use of the lifts.
During the lifting or lowering phase, the operator must remain in the station control zone as shown in the diagrams.
As shown in the diagrams, the presence of personnel within the specified danger zone is strictly forbidden. During the up and down operations of the deck, personnel are allowed in the area of interest only when the vehicle is already in a  high position, when the platforms are in a stationary position and when the mechanical safety devices are firmly engaged.
Do not use the lift without protective devices or with the protective devices inhibited.
Failure to comply with these regulations may cause serious injury to persons, and irreparable damage to the lift and the vehicle begin lifted.
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
The operator, installer, and maintenance personnel are required to comply with the applicable safety regulations in the country where the lift is installed.
In addition, the operator, installer and maintainer must:

• always work at the stations specified and illustrated in this manual;
• never remove or disable mechanical, hydraulic, electrical, or other types of safety devices;
• read the safety notes on the machine and the safety information contained in this manual.
  All of the following security messages are shown in this manual:

WARNING: Indicates operations that are not safe and can cause minor injuries to persons, damage to the lift, vehicles or other property.
CAUTION: Indicates a possible danger that can cause serious injury to persons and property damage.
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK : A specific safety warning on the lift in areas where the risk of electric shock is particularly high.
RISK AND PROTECTION DEVICES
We will now consider the risks to which operators and maintenance personnel can be exposed when the vehicle is in position on the lift, together with the various safety and protection devices adopted by the manufacturer to minimize these dangers.
For a better personal safety and vehicle safety, observe the following rules:
– Do not enter the danger zone when the vehicles are lifted.
– Make sure the vehicles are positioned correctly. (Picture 6)
– Make sure to lift only permitted vehicles, never exceed the specified load capacity, maximum height and projection (vehicle length and width);
– Make sure that there is no person on the platform during the lift up and down movements and while the vehicle is in the highest position.

GENERAL RISKS FOR LIFTING AND DESCENDANT PHASES:
The following safety devices are used to protect against overload and to avoid engine failure.
In case of overload, the safety valve opens and draws the oil back to the tank (see image 8).
Each cylinder is equipped with a parachute valve; In the event of malfunction or breakage of the oil pipe along the circuit, the affected parachute valve will come into operation and will limit the lowering speed of the platform. (See image 9).
If there is a break in the oil pipe, or if there is an obstacle that does not allow a platform to perform climb or descent operations, it will trigger a device that will block the other platform as well. (See image 9)

RISKS FOR PERSONNEL
All potential risks to the operator, maintenance worker, installer, and any other person present in the lifting area of the lift are result from an improper use of the lift.
RISKS IN USING THE LIFT
During lifting and downhill operations, the personnel must position themselves in the safety zone according to the rules and instructions provided.
During uphill and downhill operations, no person is allowed to work under the moving parts of the lift but must operate in the safe area.
RISK OF IMPACT (Picture 10)
Before starting to lift the platforms up and down, the operator must make sure that there are no people inside the hazard zone. When, for operational reasons, the lift is stopped at a relatively low height (with a height below 1.75 meters  above the ground), make sure to avoid impact with parts of the machine not marked with special colors.
RISK OF FALLING OFF – PERSONNEL
During up and down operations personnel are prohibited from entering the platforms and the vehicle lifted to avoid falling off.
RISK OF FALLING – VEHICLE (Picture 11)
This danger may arise if the vehicle is incorrectly positioned on the platform or in the case of vehicles of a size/or weight that does not conform to the lifting capacity. When the lift is in use, the engine of the lifted vehicle must not be  switched on. You should not place any object on the platform and on the mobile parts of the lift but vehicles.
RISK OF SLIDE
Any lubricant contamination in the underlying area and immediately around the lift and the platforms must be cleaned immediately. Immediately remove any oil spills. Keep the working area clean.

RISK OF VEHICLE FALL FOR WRONG POSITIONING (Picture 12)
The center of gravity of the vehicle must be located in the lift area shown in
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
The risk of electric shocks in isolated areas of electrical equipment has been canceled. Do not use water jets, steam or paint solvents next to the lift and the control unit, and pay special attention to keeping these substances away from the electrical control panel.
RISKS RELATED TO INAPPROPRIATE LIGHTING
The operator, installer and maintenance personnel must be able to ensure that the area where the lift is operating is illuminated properly and uniformly in accordance with the laws in force at the place of installation.
