Operating Instruction and Documentation MCS 5500 ND WIRELESS 6.Troubleshooting If the lift does not work properly, the reason for this might be quite simple. Please check the lift for the potential reasons mentioned on the following pages. If the cause of trouble cannot be found, please call the technical service.
Operating Instruction and Documentation MCS 5500 ND WIRELESS 6.1 Lowering on a obstacle The lift switched off if the lift is running onto an obstacle and out of the rule-window ± 50 mm. 6.1.1 Remove the obstacle • Press the button “lifting ” in the single-mode. (see the chapter 5.4/5.5) Keep an eye on it, at the singles-mode, that one MCS is lifted never too high, otherwise the crash of the vehicle can occur.
