OPERATING & INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION 2-POST-LIFT
Foundation
The Consul Post-Lifts of the EL version is that of a „basefree“ lift, therefore the floor fixing is critically
important. The entire loads (dead weight of lift and moving weight of vehicle) are transferred to the floor
through the anchor bolts.
Before installing the lift, it is necessary to ensure that the floor is adequate (see supplement anchoring for
lifts and BGG 945).
When installing the lift on a suspended floor, the floor’s suitability must be verified by a structural engineer,
or other competent person.
Only after checking of the available underground, a decision can be made about the corresponding fixing
system !
The depths of the anchorage of the shear connectors (dowel) (anchors are not supplied) have to be followed
(see instructions of the dowel manufacturers). Ohterwise there is no sufficient security for the persons
working under the post-lift.
The correct length (L) of the active part of the anchor bolt is obtained by adding the measurements „h“ +
thickness of the floorcover and height of the files and the height of the installation base. Drill size and the
thightening torque are in accordance to the bolt manufacturers instructions.
To achieve a perfect installation, the concrete floor should be flat and level (min. BN25, frost proof) with the
corresponding load capacity.
According to the type of anchor used for the 21
+1
mm hole in
the base plate, the washers must be of sufficient size!
