4. Safety regulations
If you use the automotive lift, the German following regulations are to be considered:
BGG945: Examine of automotive-lifts; BGR500 Using automotive-lifts; (VBG14).
Especially the following regulations are very important:
• Observe the detailed operating instruction.
• The laden weight of the lifted vehicle must not exceed 3000 kg for the automotive lift. The
maximum load distribution is 3:2 in or against the drive-on direction.
• Observe the centre of gravity.
• The automotive lift must be in its lowest position, before the vehicle can be driving over
the lift. Only then the vehicle can be lifted.
• The operation with the lift is only allowed on a solid and level surface.
• While working with the lift the operating instructions must be followed.
• Only trained personnel over the age of 18 years old are to operate this lift.
• No one is to stand within the working area (danger area) during lifting and lowering.
• No one is to be raised or lowed either directly or on the vehicle by the automotive lift.
• No one is to climb onto the automotive lift or onto an already raised vehicle.
• The automotive column lift must be checked by an expert after changes in the
construction have been made.
• The main switch must be switched off and locked before work on the vehicle can
commence. This is a safety precaution to ensure that the lift does not move during work.
• The main switch must be switched off and locked before any maintenance or repair work
on the automotive lift itself can be carried out.
• During lifting or lowering the operator must observe the vehicle to ensure that the vehicle
and the lift are functioning correctly.
• Installation of the standard vehicle lift in hazardous or dangerous locations such as
washing bays is dangerous and is not allowed.
• Check the centre of gravity of the vehicle if heavy parts (egg the motor) are removed.
• If heavy parts must be removed (motor) the centre of gravity will change. Secure the
vehicle before removing parts to avoid the possibility of the vehicle becoming insecure.
• At vehicles with low sub-ground clearance or with optional equipment (sport equipment)
or sport-vehicles, it is to be tested previously whether damages can appear.
