General safety instructions Always ensure that there is no one beneath the load Always secure the load with the appropriate straps or other accessories Always wear skid-proof shoes. Some stairs can be extremely slippery Always wear shoes with steel caps ...
Model FOLD / FOLD-L FOLD FOLD-L 2.2.1 The swivel joint The necessary friction for the rotary joint is obtained through multiple friction disks, which are compressed simultaneously on the left and right sides. The lock must be tightened sufficiently to avoid movement in use. As a rule: The lock will be sufficiently tightened if a single operator can tilt back the load from the upright position without any handle movement.
Control box On/Off/Ascend/ Descend button (P) 2.4.1 Button (P) for ascending / descending Briefly press the push button to switch the LIFTKAR SAL to ascent mode or descent mode. See section 4.1 Operation. If the button is pressed for more than 3 seconds, the LIFTKAR SAL will switch off. 2.4.2 Indicator light ...
2.4.3 Beep feature This is a people warning feature for transports in public areas. How to activate the Beep feature: Turn on the device and hold down the On-/Off- /Ascend-/Descend – button (P) for about 30 seconds until you can hear a beep signal. Now the recurring beep signal is available while you are driving with the SAL.
Safety flap To start tilting a load, it may be necessary to use your foot to assist in tilting. The axle of the conventional sack truck is normally used for this purpose. With the LIFTKAR SAL, the swing arm with the support wheels, a wheel, or the drive unit may be used to support by foot.
Fitting and removing the battery Fitting the battery (1) Locate corner "A" on both sides into hook "B" on frame (2) Snap battery forward to engage locking hooks Removing the battery Battery must be lifted vertically to disengage locking hook. Do not hinge back. Page 12...
Operation Ascending stairs Press button (P) briefly until the indicator light shines green continuously. The LIFTKAR is now in the UP MODE. Pressing button (Q) in the upper handle, will operate the support wheels and will lift the LIFTKAR over the step continuing until the button is released. Important: On each cycle, immediately the main wheels rest on the tread, pull the LIFTKAR back to touch the rise of the next step up.
With the support wheels in the descend position the LIFTKAR can be rolled over the step margin and the support wheels will, under controlled conditions, lower the machine onto the next step down. When the main wheels land on the lower step, the support wheels automatically rotate to the descend position for the descent onto the next step down, all within approx.
4.3.2 Hooking in underneath the step Under normal operating conditions, with the load in a well-balanced position, the moving support arm is always clear of the underside of the upper step. If the LIFTKAR is laid back too far, the support arm will be tripped by touching the tread it is on, causing it to rotate under the upper tread.
4.3.4 LIFTKAR is not a rubber pad In the beverage industry drums are sometimes directly thrown from the truck onto the hand truck instead of a rubber pad or old tyre. This is not possible with the LIFTKAR when the support wheels are in the descending position.
4.3.7 Driving on a winding staircase When you have to drive on a winding staircase please pay attention to the following: When ascending, the LIFTKAR (or any other handtruck) tends to move to the inside of the staircase (any step a few cm depending on the angle of the winding). Therefore start as far as possible at the outside when ascending.
5 Charging the battery The battery-cells within the battery housing are maintenance-free, sealed and rechargeable. Their durability largely depends on the charge/discharge cycles. It is possible for instance to extract far more than 1,000 partial discharges from lead-acid batteries if total discharge is avoided. ...
5.1 Battery charger High performance is achieved by 2-step automatic und digital control engineering. This allows for quick charging in the first step, then compensation/trickle charging in the second step. It is possible to check the condition of the battery. With LCD display und revolving mains plug.
Compensation/Trickle charging Once the battery is fully charged, the charging unit switches over to compensation/trickle charge. On the display, the battery symbol is shown with 4 bars and remains solid. If charging does not begin, there are two possible reasons: Display: symbols blink alternately indicating polarity reversal...
Safety cut-out If the battery fails to reach a certain voltage value within a pre-determined time, the charger automatically cuts out What to do after a safety cut-out: 1. Unplug the charger from the mains 2. Disconnect the charger from the battery 3.
Damage due to the exertion of force Unadmissible modifications to the unit or accessory parts Liability SANO Transportgeräte GmbH as manufacturer is not responsible for the safety of the LIFTKAR if: the LIFTKAR is used other than is intended, ...
