1.12 Safety Features Dead Man's Type Control The operator is required to hold the control in the engaged position to initiate and maintain a particular operation. Roll-off Protection Once the runways are raised, the approach ramps rise and act as chocks. Longitudinal Light Barriers as Pinch Point Protection (Option) The outside edges of the runways are equipped with light barriers.
Description General Information The lifts of this series are equipped with two runways supported by a scissors structure. The drive system consists of two hydraulic cylinders with hydraulic power unit. The lift is operated via an electric dead man's type control using pushbuttons, synchronization is achieved through a magnetostrictive measuring system.
