WARNING - safe usage instructions
1. The beam shall only be mounted on lifts or in pits
approved by the manufacturer to support jacking beams.
2. The beam shall be mounted on parallel and horizontal
support rails and shall be secured to prevent beam from
crashing.
3. Study, understand and follow all instructions before
operating this equipment.
4. This jack is only designed for partial lifting of a vehicle.
If the entire vehicle is to be lifted, lift one end at a time and
support it with support stands or other appropriate support.
Never lift both ends of the vehicle at the same time.
5. Rated capacity of beam shall be max. 66 % of vehicle lift
capacity. Do not exceed rated capacity.
6. When two beams are mounted on a lift they shall only be
operated with a min. distance of 4 meters between the
two beams. Do not exceed vehicle lift capacity.
7. This is a lifting device only. Immediately after lifting,
support vehicle with appropriate means.
8. Lift only on areas of the vehicle as specified by the vehicle
manufacturer, and only centrally on the saddle.
9. Support load horizontally through it's centre of gravity and
be attentive ensuring that load can't slip.
10. The wheels of the vehicle shall point forward and be
chocked.
11. Use clean and dry air supply, max. 12 bar/170 psi.
12. Only adapters, attachments and spare parts supplied by
the manufacturer shall be used. No alterations shall be
made to this product.
13. Failure to observe these warnings may result in personal
injury and/or property damage.
Mounting of jacking beam:
1. Adjust frame width to fit lift or pit.
2. Lift: Raise lift platforms from the floor and position the
beam between lift platforms using our special trolley or
e.g. a pallet truck. Pit: Use crane or fork lift truck to lower
the jack into the pit.
3. Place the separate support on support rail. Adjust platform
level and mount the support. Repeat this on the other side.
Warning: Tighten to a torque setting of 197 Nm!
4. Then make sure that the beam runs safely and freely
in any position on lift or pit without play. Warning: The
beam must be secured against crashing by tightening
lock 5863002 to a torque setting of 47 Nm!
5. Cylinder installation: crane the cylinder in a sling and
carefully lower it into the frame, with the hydraulic fitting
towards the control panel (fig. 1).
6. Connect the hydraulic hose to the cylinder, guiding the
hose in a gentle curve around the cylinder (fig. 2).
Then connect the 8 mm air hose to the quick coupling
(fig. 3).
7. Warning: Cylinders with 800 mm stroke shall be
secured against tilting: use 4 x 9160116 + 2 x 9160117
(fig. 4).
8. The oil reservoir is plugged for transport: pull cover 5863028
towards centre and replace plug with loose air hose (fig. 5).
9. Connect air supply on rear panel, ¼ WRG: 8 – 12 bar,
350 l/min; 116 - 170 psi, 13 cfm/min.
10. Run the cylinder fully up and down 3 – 5 times in order
to bleed the hydraulic system.
11. Check the function of the jacking beam by lifting a
typical vehicle on lifting areas as specified by the vehicle
manufacturer. Carefully test and learn the function of the
various controls.
Observe warning 1 and 2!

Operation
The release located in the center of the control panel is used
for lowering.
The control valve on the right side of the panel controls
lifting, and lowering without load.
Lifting: Turn the control valve upwards. First stage is air-
operated high-speed approach. Turn further and the air-
motor starts for power lift operation.
Lowering: Carefully open the release counter clockwise.
Lowering without load demands the control valve to be
turned downwards at the same time.
Noise emission: the A-weighted emission sound pressure
level is 80 dB(A).
Users Maintenance
Maintenance and repair must always be carried out by
qualified personnel.
The air supply shall be clean and dry in order to avoid rust
and water in the system. It is recommended to install water
separator/filter and oil lubricator on the air supply, close to
the beam.
Cleaning: We advice not to use high pressure cleaner,
steam jets or degreasing agents in order to avoid degreasing
and penetrating water. If so mechanical parts must be
lubricated afterwards.
Daily: Inspect the beam for damage.
Monthly: Check that support mountings and locks 5863002
are tightened; lubricate top of frame, guide bars 5863102
and all moving parts with oil.
Oil refill: Correct oil-level with the ram fully down is to the
filling plug (19).
Quantity of oil: 5,0 l.
Use good hydraulic oil, viscosity ISO VG 5.
NEVER USE BRAKE FLUID.
Safety inspections
According to national legislation – but at least once a year –
the beam shall be inspected by a competent person. Checks
adjustment of frame and torque setting of locks 5863002
(47 Nm) and support mountings (197 Nm), any abnormal
wear, damage, leaks, oil hoses and their fittings, all welding,
cylinder suspensions and function of the safety valve.
Furthermore that all safety labels are legible.
Trouble shooting
1. Does not lift: Verify that the release is closed.
2. The load is dropping: check that the release is closed and
that the release spring (dead man's control) is properly
adjusted. If this is ok, then change valve cores in pump.
OBSERVE that the valve cores shall be tightened to a
torque setting of 10 Nm – if not they might be ruined!
3. The cylinder does not lower: Verify that the release is
open. Lowering without load demands the control valve to
be activated at the same time.
4. The beam does not lift to maximum postion even though
the air motor is running: refill with oil.
5. The air motor runs slowly or stops: the air filter (0251100)
in the air connection on the rear is blocked and needs
cleaning or change.
6. The cylinder is leaking: inspect piston rod for damage.
Spare parts
Replace worn or broken parts with genuine beam
manufacturer supplied parts only. All main parts may not be
provided when production of the beam has ceased.
Destruction
The oil must be drained off and legally disposed of.
