suitable supports.
Safety devices must not be bypassed or rendered unusable in any other way.
Riding along with the load or on the load handling attachment is prohibited
Climbing up the lifted vehicle is prohibited.
Inspection and maintenance intervals must be observed (see section
"Inspection and maintenance schedule").
Never use additional lifting gear for an already raised load.
No parts may be placed on the jack or the vehicle to be lifted.
Keep the lift and the working area clean. ATTENTION: Risk of slipping on oily
surfaces!
Protect all parts of the electrical system from moisture.
Be careful when running vehicle engines.
ATTENTION: Risk of poisoning!
During work breaks and at the end of the working day, the system must be
switched off and secured against unauthorized use (e.g. by disconnecting and
shutting off the compressed air supply).
If the ground is uneven in the area of the chassis, it must be secured against
rolling away.
Load handling attachments must not be deliberately caused to vibrate.
As the chassis is not secured against tipping on the ground, side loading is
prohibited.
At the end of work, the pit jacks must be secured against unauthorized use by
disconnecting them from the power source. To do this, disconnect the air jacks
from the compressed air supply and disconnect the electric jacks from the
power supply.
The main switch on the electric pit jack must be set to "0" and additionally
secured against being switched on again, e.g. with a padlock.
