2 Transport
2.1 Conditions of transport
In order to prevent damage or life-threatening injuries during the transport of the material and
installation lifts, it is imperative that the following points are observed:
• Transport works must only be carried out by qualified personnel in accordance with the
safety instructions and in compliance with the unladen weight of the material-installation
lift, using a sufficient number of people.
• For the transportation of the material-installation lifts and associated component parts
only appropriate means of transport and suitable load handling attachments and lifting
tackle must be used.
• Prior to moving, check if any potential parking brakes must be released. After relocating,
the parking brakes must be applied.
• During transport, the permitted floor load must be observed!
• It is generally prohibited to be positioned below suspended loads!
• Ensure that your vehicle is suitable for the transportation of these material-installation
lifts. Check if your load securing equipment (e.g. lashing straps) is sufficient to
appropriately secure the load. The loading process must only be carried out on level
surfaces.
• The material-installation lifts must be sufficiently secured on the loading area of your
vehicle.
• The integrated wheels in the front parts are not designed for bearing permanent loads!
2.2 Transportation risks
During the transport of the material-installation lifts, the following specific hazards must be
expected:
• Improper moving of the material lifts may result in injury to persons or damage to objects.
• To prevent accidents, always ensure that you have a clear view in the driving direction
and that there are no people in the transport area. Depending on the circumstances, at
least one further person is required for safety purposes.
• If the proper load handling equipment is not used, the material-installation lift may be
severely damaged.
• Should a component of the material lift be damaged or disabled during transport,
commissioning of the material-installation lift is not permitted, as the consequences are
not calculable. The lift may only be commissioned when the damage has been properly
repaired.
• Make sure that all parking brakes have been engaged after transportation, as the
material lift could otherwise begin to move automatically.
