INTENDED USE

The SPOT LIFT EASY is intended for the repair of cars and leisure vehicles. It allows a vehicle to be lifted by gripping under a wheel (or by the lower body frame as an option*). Rated load is 1100 kg.
The SPOT LIFT EASY may only be used by persons who have read and understood the operating instructions.
A safety perimeter must be defined in which no one must be present during the lifting operation.
The lifting of persons or other objects is not allowed. No one must be inside the vehicle to be lifted.
The SPOT LIFT EASY must be used inside a work room and protected from bad weather (wind, rain and temperatures below 5°C).
The operating temperature range is between 5°C and 50°C maximum. In case of prolonged storage in a place where the temperature is below 0°C, allow at least 12 hours before use the SPOT LIFT EASY by storing it in the workplace.
Do not use in excessively humid conditions.
Never use the lift on uneven surfaces / slopes. The ground must be flat and strong enough to prevent the wheels from sinking under the weight of the load.
It is forbidden to use the jack on a boat/ship (stability problem).
Remove any grease and oil stains that may cause the vehicle to slide.
Work underneath the vehicle is strictly forbidden.
Vehicles should only be lifted by the wheels and by the lifting points (optional) recommended by the vehicle manufacturers. Make sure that the SPOT LIFT EASY does not come into contact with areas close to the airbag activation sensors during and after the lifting.
In the event of a violent impact on the load-bearing and/or structural elements of the SPOT LIFT EASY, it is imperative to take the product out of service and contact your dealer or the manufacturer in order to assess the damage before putting it back into service.
In case of doubt about the strength of the vehicle structure (presence of rust) – Do not lift the vehicle.
Do not lift vehicles equipped with a panoramic roof.
Intended use also includes familiarizing yourself with these operating instructions and complying with all the instructions contained therein, in particular the safety instructions.
Enforce safety and risk prevention standards in the country’s workplaces.
In addition, this also includes the obligation to carry out all inspection and maintenance work at regular intervals.
In the event of improper use of the jack, the operational safety of the SPOT LIFT EASY is not ensured.
Damage to persons and property, also on vehicles, caused by improper use of the device is in no way the responsibility of the manufacturer, but of the operator handling the SPOT LIFT EASY.

PACKAGING AND UNLOADING

The jack is packed in a cardboard box on a pallet. The SPOT LIFT EASY operating and test instructions are inside the package. On delivery, check for external transport damage. In case of visible damage, leave the goods and packaging as they are. Do not use the goods and contact your dealer directly. Failing this, a reservation must be made to the carrier.
Unloading can be done either with two people wearing gloves and safety shoes or by means of a forklift truck.

INDIVIDUAL PROTECTION

The operator must be equipped in accordance with the occupational risk prevention standards applicable in their country and must adopt all necessary measures to maintain safety at their workstation. During maneuvers, the operator must ensure their own safety and that of the people and objects around them. The operator must take into consideration all the recommendations quoted in this manual.

SAFTEY AREA

For an optimal safety, it is recommended to make sure that any other objects or walls are in the working area. All descent, exit and parking maneuvers must be carried out with the best possible attention from the operator. Nobody must be standing in the safety area.

While the load is being lifted, the SPOT LIFT EASY will move approximately 30 cm towards the vehicle being lifted. It will move back the same distance during the lowering phases. For safety reasons, the user must always be able to move away during lifting and lowering.

INSTALLATION

Once the tool has been removed from its packaging, assembled and positioned on the ground, perform a no-load test to check the SPOT LIFT EASY’s general operation.

   NB: with no-load, the column may vibrate and make noise when lifting, this is normal.

3. CHECKING THE LIFT
   Press the left side of the pump («RELEASE») with your foot while positioning your hands on the handles of the SPOT LIFT EASY. Keep your foot on the pedal until the fork is completely down.
   NB: with no-load, the fork may jerk down, this is normal.
