CHAPTER 7 – INSTALLATION
Only skilled technicians, appointed by the manufacturer, or by authorized
dealers, must be allowed to carry out installation. Serious damage to people and
to the lift can be caused if installations are made by unskilled personnel.
7.1 CHECKING FOR ROOM SUITABILITY
The lift has been designed to be used in covered and sheltered places free of overhead obstructions.
The place of installation must not be next to washing areas, painting workbenches, solvent or
varnish deposits. The installation near to rooms, where a dangerous situation of explosion can occur,
is strictly forbidden. The relevant standards of the local Health and Safety at Work regulations, for
instance, with respect to minimum distance to wall or other equipment, escapes and the like, must be
observed.
7.2 LIGHTING
Lighting must be carried out according to the effective regulations of the place of installation. All
areas next to the lift must be well and uniformly lit.
7.3 FOUNDATION
The lift must be placed sufficiently in the concrete pit prepared as shown in the figure 13. The floor
must be suitable for bearing maximum stress values, also in unfavorable working conditions. The
level difference between two pits MUST be less than 3mm, and the height difference within full
length of base frame MUST be less than 5mm. The new concrete must be adequately cured by at
least 20 days minimum.
A level foundation is suggested for proper installation. Small differences may
be compensated for by proper shimming. Any major slope change will affect
the level lifting performance. If the foundation is of questionable slope,
considering to pour the new one.
7.4 LIFT POSITIONING
Unauthorized persons are not allowed to enter during assembly.
• Locate the lift position in the pit according to the drive-on direction of the lift and referring to
the foundation layout (figure. 13). Be sure the side of each platform with the labels towar
outside.
• Transport each runway into the pit using hoisting means with load capacity of 500kg at least.
To prevent the platform from dropping during transport, it should be lifted according to its
centre of gravity.
• Place the control unit in the position provided for. The location of control unit can be
positioned in either left or right to meet the customer’s preference.
