WARNING! Stand clear of bridge into truck when lowering of platform causes bridge to fold, or raising platform causes bridge to open to avoid personal injury. Stand clear of and do not touch Truck Bridge or Automated Folding Ramp when platform is being raised or lowered to avoid injury.

Position Adjustable Height Bridge Wheel so that the bridge opens automatically onto the truck floor, overlapping the truck floor 4” - 7” or more, as the platform is raised. The Adjustable Bridge Wheel should not touch the underside of the level open bridge once the platform is raised to truck height because it is built to guide the bridge open at the correct height and not to support the load. The Automatic Bridge or the optional Automated Folding Ramp should not be touched during operation or personal injury may result.

WARNING! The Speed-Lift Truck Bridge MUST overlap the truck floor (or raised dock level if the lift is used at a dock) by 4” - 7” or more to safely support loads being moved across the bridge. Failure to reposition the Speed-Lift or to reposition the truck to allow 4” - 7” of bridge overlapping support from the truck floor (or dock surface) may result in personal injury.

Use smooth, gradual movements of the control valve handle to raise or lower the plat form without sudden starts or stops. Do not pull, push, or hang onto control handles with excessive force because handle bending or breakage may result.

WARNING! When two or more persons are operating the lift and moving loads independently of the other, make certain the lift is raised or lowered to the proper height before moving a load onto or from the platform to avoid personal injury. Always double check when moving a load onto a raised platform to be certain that someone else has not moved or used the platform first.

Run motor/pump continuously during super cold weather (~1O° or colder) by turning “ON” the Energy Conservation System Bypass Switch located on the electric control box, during each use when super cold weather slows the platform lowering speed noticeably. After Speed-Lift use is completed, turn the motor off. Use the Cold Weather Energy Conservation System Bypass “continuous run” feature only when it is needed during really cold weather, and only while the truck is being unloaded/loaded.

Notify maintenance and repair service personnel for Speed-Lifts immediately when any thing is noticed which requires adjustment, repair, or replacement.

WARNING! Continued use of a lift which requires maintenance or repair may cause personal injury. Make certain all repair needs are done promptly.

WARNING! When working after dark, use sufficient light to clearly see all areas of the Speed-Lift, truck, and surrounding area to avoid injury.
