Danger of injury when raising vehicles
Danger!
Risk of fatal injury due to vehicles slipping or tilting off lifting platforms!
- Risk of injury due to vehicles slipping or tilting off lifting platforms may be caused by improper alignment of the lifting platform arms or mounting plates, and by raising, supporting or removing units on raised vehicles!
- Align the vehicle evenly between the lifting platform columns.
- Lift the vehicle only at the take-up points provided.
- Check the correct seating of the mounting plates by raising the vehicle slightly and conducting a visual inspection.
- In order to guarantee that the vehicle is not lifted off the mounting plates during assembly work, the vehicle must be secured on the lifting platform when removing or supporting units or the shift in the centre of gravity must be compensated with corresponding toads in the vehicle.
- In addition, the guidelines of the lifting platform manufacturers and the legal accident prevention regulations and those of the mutual indemnity association (VGB 14) must be observed.
