Material Lift LMX / LHX LHX: During each transport where the material and installation lift LHX is lying on its side, the hydraulic tank must also be closed by means of the block tap (Fig. 2.1). CAUTION! If the tank is not closed, oil will leak out! Fig.
Material Lift LMX / LHX Installation 3.1 Notes The material-installation lift has undergone a function test prior to professional packing! The packaging material must be disposed of or reused in accordance with the applicable rules of each country of installation. During the installation of the equipment/system, the following safety instructions must always be observed, in order to avoid life-threatening injuries, damage to machinery/systems and other material damage.
Page 9
Material Lift LMX / LHX CAUTION! For this purpose, use a suitable tool to ensure that the link is strong. CAUTION! When folding the front parts, watch the boom (rail package) and if necessary, keep the same back to prevent tipping of the material lift. If you wish to set the unit to the transport position, follow the steps for the setting-up in reverse order.
Material Lift LMX / LHX Commissioning CAUTION! Directly after setting up or prior to commissioning LHX lifts, the block tap at the hydraulic tank must always be opened (Fig. 2.2.)! Fig. 2.2 - block tap NOTE! Prior to connecting the installation lift LHX with the local supply network, check with a connector plug if the electric equipment of the lift is compatible with the local supply network.

Material Lift LMX / LHX With the spirit level (Example: fig. 5 LMX) the lift can be levelled off. The unit must be level on all sides. Fig. 3 - Rail safety mechanism Fig. 4 - Crane fork Fig. 5 - Spirit level above winch Fig.
Material Lift LMX / LHX Operation of LMX / LHX The installation lift must only be used on even surfaces, all locks at the castors must be engaged and never overloaded. Installation lifts must not be wheeled around when loaded. The material lifts can be used within enclosed spaces.

Material Lift LMX / LHX CAUTION! It must be ensured that the hydraulic shutoff valve shuts off the winch in the lowest position of the crane fork. Otherwise, damage is caused to the wire cable and the hydraulic winch. After the work with this unit has been completed, or if the work with the material and installation lift LHX is stopped for a longer period of time, the unit must be switched off using the circuit breaker, in order to avoid unnecessary warming up of the hydraulic oil and unnecessary wear and tear.
Material Lift LMX / LHX Safety 6.1 Safety instructions for assembly, commissioning, operation and maintenance • The material lift may only be operated, maintained and repaired by authorised, qualified and instructed technical personnel! • For safety reasons, the responsibilities of the personnel for assembly, commissioning, operation and maintenance must be precisely defined! •...

Material Lift LMX / LHX • The installation lift must be inspected by a qualified person depending on operating conditions and the operational circumstances, however, at least once every year (annual occupational safety inspection in accordance with UVV). • These operating instructions are expressly a part of the material lifts and must always be kept with the units.
Material Lift LMX / LHX Conduct in case of malfunction Before commencing work, check if the mast components are running upwards in the correct sequence. First, the carriage must lift up, then the front mast, then the 2. mast etc. The sequence during lowering is reversed.
Material Lift LMX / LHX Replacement parts Only original replacement parts may be used, as otherwise warranty claims will not be valid and the safety of the lift may potentially no longer be ensured. Modifications and alterations not carried out by us release us from any responsibility in the event of any damage. In the event of repair or procurement of replacement parts, please contact us.
Material Lift LMX / LHX Safety regulations During the operation of the installation lifts, the operating instructions and accident prevention regulations must categorically be observed (VBG 14 UVV lifting platforms). 10.1 UVV Regulations VBG 14 Lifting platforms Protection against unauthorised use Section 7.
