4.1 Lift (Rif. Figure 2)
The lift has been designed to lift motor-vehicles and make them stand at any level
between the minimum and maximum height.
The maximum lifting weight, including any additional load on the vehicle, is as specified
on the serial plate
All mechanical frames, such as platforms, extensions, base frames and arms have been
built in steel plate to make the frame stiff and strong while keeping a low weight.
The electro hydraulic operation is described in detail in chapter 8.
This chapter describes the lift showing the principal elements, so allowing the user to
be familiar with the machine.
As shown in figure 2, the lifts are composed of two platforms, the platform 1 (1) and the
platform 2 (2) anchored to the ground by means of two base frames (3).
Platforms are linked to the base frame by means of a double scissors lifting system.
Platforms 1560 mm long, can reach a length of 2100 mm with two extractable extensions
(4) to allow longer wheel base vehicles to be lifted.
The lifting system of each platform is composed of four arms, two lower (5) and two upper
(6) arms, as well as a pair of cylinders, one primary and one secondary cylinder
Motion is transmitted from the cylinder to the arms through a lever system
Lift lowering and lifting are carried out by means of a control box (8) (fixed to the ground)
placed next to the lift.
A proximity switch is installed inside the platform 1 scissors to stop the lift at a height
of 400 mm. A proximity switch is installed inside the platform 2 scissors to stop the lift
at the maximum height.
The lift is equipped with drive-up and drive-down ramps (7), placed at both ends, for
easy access of the vehicle which is lifted by placing the vehicle frame on four rubber pads.
