6.1 Lowering onto an obstacle
If the lift is lowered onto an obstacle on its slave side during lowering it stops
automatically. In this case push bypass switch S2 in command unit and the “lifting” button
simultaneously and raise the lift until the obstacle can be removed. Now the lift can function
normally again and can be used as described in this manual.
If the lift is lowered onto an obstacle on its master side during lowering it will stop automatically.
In this case push button ”lifting” and raise the lift until the obstacle can be removed.
6.2 Emergency lowering
In the case of power failure, the emergency-lowering can only be done if the automotive-lift is
not locked in a safety device. If the lift is locked, the command valve cannot be opened and the
security system cannot open. In this case, wait until the power failure is over.
In the case of defective electromagnetic valves, the hydraulic valves of the lift will not open.
Therefore the lift can not be lowered. In this case there is the possibility to open the hydraulic
valves manually and to lower the lift into its lowest position, so that the vehicle can be driven off.
If the vehicle is lifted with an axle-lift (jack) the axle-lift must be lowered first, because
the emergency lowering screw of the axle-lift is not accessible once the lift has been
completely lowered.
The emergency lowering can only be performed when the ratchets are not engaged
(they can be lifted manually).
The emergency lowering must only be performed by persons instructed to use the lift.
Please refer to the regulation ”Lowering”.
