I) WARNINGS – SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The manufacturer hereby refuses to accept any responsibility for injury to persons or damage to equipment or property if it appears that incorrect handling of the lift has occurred. This instructions manual only describes the operating and safety aspects which are necessary to the people who are installing the equipment.
In order to understand the terminology used in this manual, the person performing the installation work should have specific experience in industrial work, service, maintenance and repair activities, and must also be able to explain the drawings and the descriptions contained in this manual to other people. At the same time, he must be aware of the general and specific safety regulations which apply in the country where the lift is being installed.
SECURITY
It is important to read this section carefully since it contains important information about the risks which the operator of the lift will be exposed to if the lift is not used properly. Please find below useful information about how to avoid dangerous situations.
WARNING
The lift is designed to lift vehicles and hold them in a certain position in a covered working place.
Any other form of use is forbidden
In short, the lift is not suitable for the following purposes:
- Washing and spraying work
- To apply force
- To be used as a goods lift
The manufacturer hereby refuses to take into account any claim for damages arising in connection with person’s injury or damage to vehicle or other property due to incorrect and/or unauthorized use of the lift.
During lifting and lowering movements, the operator must be within the work area (2), as shown in figure 1. The presence of any person in the safety zone (1) is strictly forbidden. The presence of people under the vehicle is only permitted if the vehicle is in high lifting position.

WARNING
USE THE LIFT ONLY IF ALL THE SAFETY DEVICES ARE WORKING PROPERLY. IF THESE RULES ARE NOT FOLLOWED, SERIOUS INJURY COULD BE CAUSED TO THE PERSON AS WELL AS IRREPARABLE DAMAGE TO THE LIFT AND THE VEHICLE ON THE LIFT.
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS:
- The operator is bound to follow the regulations which apply in the country in which this lift is installed.
In addition, the operator must:
- Always work in the work area as designated in the manual.
- Never remove the protective guards or dismantle or shut down the mechanical, electrical or other types
of safety arrangements.
- Read the safety regulations related to the lift and read the safety information provided in this manual
The following terms have been used in this manual to describe the various types of risk:
DANGER: there is a direct possibility of danger which could lead to serious injury or death
WARNING: indicates situations and / or actions which are unsafe and could lead to injuries of various
types except death.
CAUTION: indicates situations and/or actions, which are unsafe and could lead to light injuries to
persons and/or damage to the lift, the vehicle and other properties.
RISK OF DAMAGE DUE TO ELECTRICITY: special safety arrangements have been made
on the lift in places where the risks are very high.
RISK AND PROTECTIVE MEDIA: the risk to which the operator is exposed when the vehicle is in a
raised position, together with the protective media which have been installed, in order to limit the possible dangers.
DANGER
It is strictly forbidden to use the lift before it is fixed to the ground.
(Risk of tipping over)
Fasten the lift to the ground by the means of the bolts supplied, as indicated in the chapter INSTALLATION
WARNING
Do not move the vehicle when it is on the platform. The platforms and the rubber fittings should only be removed at the lowest lifting position, and when there is no load
The vehicle must be placed on the lift in such a way that there is a uniform distribution of weight over the platforms.
To ensure the safety of persons and materials, you must check that:
- The safety zone is kept under observation during the lifting process
4
SAFETY DEVICES
The following safety devices have been installed to prevent overloading and damage.
- A hydraulic protection prevents descending of the lift in case of hose fracture.
- Thermal protection switches the power off in case of overloading.
- Overpressure valve offers protection against damage due to excessive lifting.
- A limit-switch to limit the upward movements
- A buzzer warns you about the risk of crushing when the lift is brought to its lowest position.
- Bolts for fixing the lift to the ground
RISKS TO PEOPLE
This paragraph describes the risks to which the operator or any other person near the working area where the lift is in operation are exposed, if the lift is not used in the appropriate manner.
Never rest any fittings or other objects against the platform and never place such objects under the platform when there is a load on it, since this can impede the lowering operations and may cause the vehicle to fall off the platform. (Figure 2)
Figure 2
RISK OF USE / MAINTENANCE
Blackhawk uses material of the highest quality in its lifts. These must be used according to the standard specified, and maintenance must be carried out regularly.
RISKS INVOLVED IN POSITIONING A VEHICLE
This type of risk may arise if the vehicle is not properly placed on the rubber supports (figure 3), or if the platforms are not properly aligned with respect to the vehicle. One can avoid this by always lifting the vehicle using the car­jack support points, and placing the vehicle as far as possible in the centre of the platform.
CAUTION
While dismantling heavy parts (for example the motor or shafts), please note that the weight distribution ratios
change.
Figure 3

RISK FOR THE OPERATOR (Figure 4)
This risk arises in cases when the operator is not standing in the correct place by the pump. When the lift with the vehicle is being lowered, the operator MUST NOT stand below the descending system. It is imperative that the operator MUST be standing in the operating zone during the lifting and lowering operations.
Figure 4
RISK OF ELECTROCUTION
Never spray water or steam of solvents or paint in the area immediately surrounding the platform and the pump. (Figure 5)
Figure 5
RISK OF SLIPPING
This risk can be overcome by avoiding the spillage of oil or grease in the area surrounding the lift. Apart from that, any oil spillage which may occur should be thoroughly removed from the spot. (Figure 6)
Figure 6
Never enter the vehicle or start the motor when the vehicle is on the lift. (Figure 7)
