Control is always connected to the quick-
coupling “1”. 
Lifting 
Lever in position “a” 
(pressure in quick-
coupling “1“) 
End of lifting 
Lever is moved to 
position “b“ (neutral) 
Lowering 
Lever is moved to 
position “c“ (floating) 
End of lowering 
Lever is moved to 
position “b“ (neutral)

When working with a double-
acting cylinder it is necessary to 
move the control lever of the 
external circuit throught the 
position „c“ (floating position) as 
quicky as possible, because both 
sides of the working cylinder are 
connected to the drain and an 
uncontrolled movement of the 
piston rod may occur.
