1.1 About these operating instructions
The state-of-the-art in-ground lift complies with ap-
plicable occupational health and safety regulations.
However, with improper use or misuse danger to life
of the user or third parties can arise and property
can be damaged.
It is therefore very important that the persons re-
sponsible are familiar with these operating instruc-
tions.
Read the instructions carefully to avoid operating
errors, risks and damage. Use the in-ground lift only
as intended.
Please observe the following:
The operating instructions must always be avail-
able close to the lift.
Familiarize yourself in detail with chapter 4,
safety precautions and with the operating in-
structions on the lift.
We are not responsible for damages and down-
times arising from non-observance of these oper-
ating instructions.
Lift installation and initial start-up may only be
carried out by authorized specialized installers
(factory-trained technicians) and electricians.
Contact the authorized customer service in case
of malfunctions.
Illustrations may differ from the supplied lift. How-
ever, functions or operating steps are the same.

These operating instructions and related instruc-

also applies to after sale or re-installation at a
different location.
Unauthorized lift modifications are not permitted.
Unauthorized modifications lead to the expiry of
the operating permit; the declaration of con-
formity becomes invalid.
1.3 Expert staff for safety-relevant op-
erations
Lift inspection is required after initial start-up and at
regular intervals at least once per year.
Inspection is also necessary after replacing safety-
relevant components during maintenance.
Safety-relevant work and safety inspections on lifts
must only be carried out by expert staff. These are
generally competent persons or authorized experts.
Authorized experts are persons (freelance spe-
cialized engineers, TÜV experts), who are permit-
ted to inspect lifts due to their training and experi-
ence.
They are familiar with the relevant occupational
and health regulations.
