Introduction
Congratulations on your new SL 380 MIDI.
Smart Lift has been designed and constructed so as to safeguard product users
against accidents as far as at all possible.
Unfortunately, certain functions in a machine cannot be safeguarded. This is why
safety rules have been prepared by way of warnings in this instruction.
Read these safety rules on the following pages before putting your Smart LIFT into
operation, and imagine how you may, in your daily use of the machine, ensure that
warnings and safety rules will be adhered to.
DS/EN ISO 3691-1 (Industrial trucks - Safety requirements and verification - Part 1: Self-propelled industrial
trucks, other than driverless trucks, variable-reach trucks and burden-carrier trucks)
DS/EN ISO 3691-5:2015 (Industrial trucks - Safety requirements and verification - Part 5: Pedestrian-propelled
trucks)
DS/EN 60204-32 (Safety of machinery - Electrical equipment of machines - Part 32: Requirements for hoisting
machines)
DS/EN ISO 13856-3 (Safety of machinery - Pressure-sensitive protective devices - Part 3: General principles for
design and testing of pressure-sensitive bumpers, plates, wires and similar devices)

Safety Rules ( Pages 9, 11, 14)
Daily Use
Your Smart LIFT may only be used by persons who have been given qualified training in the
operation of this machine and its safety functions.
Before use, user should check that there are no loose objects on the machine since this would
entail breakdown and danger risks.
WARNING! Vacuum!
Working at the machine will entail danger if the various safety
devices, pressure gauge (pos. 6), and acoustic alarm (pos. 16) are
faulty.
Work may not be lifted until the light and acoustic alarms (pos.15,
pos. 16) have stopped.
Do NOT lift moist or greasy work by the suction cups.
WARNING! Risk of overturning!
This machine MUST stand on a horizontal, firm, and stable base,
with its supporting legs (pos. 46) unfolded.
WARNING!
Prior to using the lift yoke, check that nut and lock split have been securely
fastened.
Always see that weight blocks (pos. 45) have been locked using lock split (pos. 40).

Operation of VACUUM function: (page 13)
This function (pos. 5) will switch vacuum on and off. The vacuum pump is controlled
by a vacustat. The pump starts at -0,53 and stops at -0,62.
The vacuum function is operated by the slide valve and safety button on top of the
arm. To activate vacuum push the slide valve forward. To deactivate vacuum pull
out the safety button and pull back the handle on the slide valve.
Control Panel (pos. 32) for arm and yoke: (pages 8, 9, 15)
Users should make a point of reading the function description below, so as to
become familiar with the functioning of the machine.
Smart LIFT is operated manually. This machine generally has four functions which
may be operated individually.
UP/DOWN function:
This function will make the arm move either up or down. The movement is made via
the actuators, (pos. 24).
TILTING function:
This function will make the work turn round. The movement is made by actuator,
(pos. 21).
TELESCOPIC ARM function:
The movement is made via actuator, placed under the lift arm, (pos. 23).
SIDE DISPLACEMENT function:
This movement is performed via actuator, placed between the two front wheels.
(pos. 22).
Electric functions: (pages 9, 11, 14)
STOP/EMERGENCY STOP function:
The emergency stop button (pos. 33) is placed on the actual control panel. This
button will switch off actuators, electric control, as well as drive motor.

Victron Energy Blue Power Charger IP65 ( pos. 26) – Battery Charger for lead acid
batteries.
The blue Power charger is a three state charger (bulk-absorption float).
The absorption stage ends 2 hours after the charger current has reduced to 10% of
the nominal current, with a maximum charge time of 18 hours.
Connection to the mains or reduction of the output voltage to 12V resp. 24V due to
a DC load will trigger a new charge cycle.
Also please refer to the attached user guide (page 28).
Always check that there is power on the machine, and that it has not been disconnected by switch or by
fuse in the control box. Relay for pump may also be defective.
If – vacuum pump runs constantly.
Check that the slide valve is closed (should be closed to generate vacuum). Read pressure gauge (should be
about 0.60).
If – the pressure gauge indication is constantly about 0.7 or more.
In that case, there will be a fault on the vacuum guard.
If – the pressure gauge is constantly appr. 0.55 or less, and the pump is running.
In that case there would be a fault on the vacuum pump, or a leak on the hose connection between check
valve and vacuum pump.
If – the pressure gauge indication drops after the main switch has been disconnected, and the slide
valve closed.
In that case, there will be a fault – a leak between slide valve and check valve. Pressure gauge, slide valve or
vacuum guard may be defective. If hoses are dismantled at couplings, and the pressure continues to drop,
the fault will be with the slide valve.
If – the vacuum pump starts and runs constantly, possibly with dropping pressure, when the slide
valve is opened, in connection with suction of work.
Check that all suction cups bear correctly on the work, i.e. that the particular suction cup is parallel with the
work, and that no parts of the suction cups protrude from the work (IMPORTANT !!!).
If – the vacuum pump starts and stops at very brief intervals.
Dismantle spiral hoses at couplings and close the slide valve if this has not been done already. If the
vacuum pump still starts and stops at very brief intervals, there may be a fault on the check valve.
If – the vacuum pump starts and runs, and stops at brief intervals, possibly with dropping pressure
on one or both pressure gauges, when the slide valve is opened, after correct suction of work.
Close slide valve. Disconnect one vacuum circuit at hose coupling, and then open the slide valve for vacuum
suction again. If the vacuum suction on the pressure gauge for disconnected circuit is now constantly 0.6,
there will be a fault on the hose set or at the suction cups in disconnected vacuum circuit. Test the same
procedure in case of fault on the other vacuum circuit system. You may listen for leaks.
2. Stop-Down at ”movements” controlled via control panel
If – no response to pushing control panel, all functions
Has emergency stop been released? Reconnect emergency stop by turning the release pressure. Check
whether main switch is on (placed on battery case between lift actuators) – to be turned clockwise to
switch on.
Check whether the control panel connector is correctly placed in the control box. Have batteries been
charged? – on/off button on handle for drive should be on to read battery indicator?
Is 30-ampere fuse in control box OK?
Has the safety switch been activated? If activated, try to deactivate by pulling in the telescopic arm, or act
as follows:

Has the safety switch been activated? If activated, try one of the possibilities above.
There may be a fault on actuators for movements, or when controlling these.
Actuators, and Control of these
For faults on movements of actuators, always first check visually and by review of the machine whether
anything visible is wrong, or “wrong” from an acoustic point of view, from one of the actuators. Lines may
be loose or torn, and bolts may be loose. Finally, the actual actuator telescopic arm may be bent. The
machine has totally five actuators. 1 for tilting of yoke, 2 for lifting of arm, 1 for telescoping of arm, and 1
for side change.
