The working principle of the hydraulic system is as 
follows: 
When the UP button is pressed, the motor is started, 
driving the oil pump, sucking the hydraulic oil from the oil 
tank into the oil cylinder 9, forcing the piston rod move. At 
this time, the safety valve 5 is closed, and the Max working 
pressure is already adjusted before ex-factory. The safety 
valve can ensure the capacity of the rated load, but when 
the pressure in the system exceeds the limit, automatically 
overflow will be happened inside safety valve to protect the 
hydraulic system. Release the UP button to stop the oil 
supply and the lifting will stop. For lowering, press and hold 
the UNLOCK button, the electromagnetic safety lock 
mechanism will be released, meanwhile press the DOWN 
button, the solenoid valve 6 is actuated, the hydraulic oil 
flows back from the hydraulic cylinder into the oil tank 
through the solenoid valve 6 and flow-control valve 7, and 
the lift starts the lowering.
