ALWAYS keep the mechanical lock hooked during work, in order to weigh down the weight of the structure and of the vehicle standing on it even on the toothed bars at the base. During the use of the lifting platform it is very important to pay the utmost attention to the ascent and descent manoeuvres.
Additional safety systems for the built-in version For the built-in version, the lifting platform presents risks of crushing and getting stuck inside the housing. During the ascent/descent phase the operator is required to distance from the lifting platform according to the length allowed by the control panel cable.
Transport and handling section Transport, handling and storage CAUTION: Disseminate the instructions described in this chapter to all personnel involved in the Transport and handling of the machine. For safety reasons, the moving parts must be locked before Transport. Packaging and Transport The machine is packed for Transport directly from the Manufacturer.
It is recommended that the unloading or handling operations to be carried out with a forklift truck by a single Operator equipped with workshop gloves, safety footwear and protective helmet, as required by current regulations. This operator must pay maximum attention to all Transport phases. Do not allow any other person to stand in the operation area of the forklift truck in order to prevent the accidental fall of the boxes.
Installation section The machine must be installed in compliance with the safety regulations and instructions included in this chapter. CAUTION: COMPLETELY remove the wooden sleepers located under the lifting platform by removing the fixing screws before using the machine. The machine does not need a basis but requires a flat and horizontal floor. The floor must be able to support a minimum weight of 500 kg/m The motorcycle lifting platform must be placed in such a way as to allow the operator to easily repair the motorcycles.
CAUTION: In the electronic or electro-hydraulic version, the lifting platform is equipped with an electronic board which transforms the low-voltage current to prevent the electrocution risk. A fuse calibrated on the amperage of the stable 230V power supply is located inside this board. It is forbidden to replace/tamper with this fuse with one of a higher resistance/amperage.
Dismantling/scrapping section Dismantling Follow the Regulations regarding the materials dismantling in force in the country where the machine will be dismantled. Here are some useful indications in case you must disassemble the machine to reassemble it in other areas, store it or demolish it. Mechanical dismantling Before proceeding with mechanical dismantling of the machine, carefully clean the whole structure (see Cleaning and Maintenance).
Operation section Figure 6 – general model of a lifting platform Loading operations Before installing the vehicle on the platform, it is essential to use the wheel stop (Figure 6, [1]), to check that the work surface (Figure 6, [1]) is completely lowered and the ascent ramp (Figure 6, [3]) is properly positioned.
Unloading operations 1- Reassemble the ascent ramp; 2- Make sure that the scissor sliding guides are free from foreign bodies (bolts or other objects would stop the descent and could cause serious damage or dangerous jolts); 3- Use the pump to raise the lifting platform with about 3 cm, then release the safety bar (Figure 6, [3]) through the special lever placed sideways.
7.3.2 COMPRESSED AIR PUMP - element code - 002 The pump (Figure 8) is a variable calibration pressure multiplier which allows you to obtain a hydraulic flow from a pneumatic supply. DESCENT ASCENT Figure 8 – Compressed air pump Read carefully the attached use and maintenance Manual: Air pump C.M.O.
7.3.4 ELECTRONIC WITH REMOTE CONTROL - element code 004/R Lifting is carried out by using a remote control connected to the hydraulic pump via a remote control radio receiver. ASCENT DESCENT Figure 10 – remote control button panel with maintained action control The remote control is equipped with two buttons with maintained action which allow the ascent and descent.
Maintenance section The maintenance operations are the absolute prerogative of professional operators and specialised technicians, in compliance with the requirements of Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC and subsequent updates. As routine maintenance, the following checks/operations must be carried out once a month: ...
Piston replacement In case the hydraulic piston must be replaced, proceed as follows: Lower the lifting platform to the minimum height position; Maintain the lowering control of the lift for another 6 seconds, to empty the oil; A second operator must lift the lifting platform by hand up to about 500 mm from the ground;...
Cleaning 8.4.1 Initial cleaning The machine does not require particular initial cleaning, but it is a good practice to clean the transit areas of the motorcycles by removing the oils and dust to prevent the slip during loading. Wear water-repellent gloves. Perform the cleaning operations wearing anti-cut gloves resistant to the substances used (follow the safety data sheet).
When implementing the suggested remedy, always follow the instructions described in the Instructions to which the remedy refers. Bike-Lift Europe s.r.l. will solve all the problems which cannot be eliminated by means of the attached instructions. The motor housing (Figure 13) which activates and moves the platform is placed at the base of the piston.
