Lifting Trolleys provide lifting and transportation aid for loads up to 250kg (551lbs). The lifters can be
equipped with different tools that have battery driven lifting and lowering capabilities. The user moves the lifter
by pushing it, and prevents it from moving when stationary with the aid of brakes.
The lifters are available in seven different models, mainly differing in lifting capacity: PRO40, PRO80, PRO140,
PRO180, PRO250, PRO100ESE and PRO200ESE. This chapter presents an overview illustration of the lifters
and a table containing characteristics of the different models. Important information about how to load the lifters is also provided.

3 User instructions
This chapter describes how to operate the
TAW I
Lifting Trolleys.
Start the lifter
Make sure that the wheels rotate smoothly, that the brakes on the rear wheels are functioning properly and that
the battery is charged. Review and perform relevant inspections. See Daily inspections by operator on page
20, Quarterly inspections by inhouse maintenance on page 21 and Yearly inspections by TAWI authorised
service technician on page 21.
1. Press the main switch to turn the power on.
» Response: The battery status display flashes for approximately three seconds and is thereafter lit.
2. The lifter is now ready for use.
• The lifter can be stopped at any time by pressing the emergency stop on the control panel.
• Only run the lifter when it is completely assembled.
• Check the lifter for safe functionality prior to each use, for instructions, see Inspections on page 20.
• The lifters has overload protection which will prevent tools from being raised when the specified max
load is exceeded. If the overload protection is activated, reduce the load and try again.
Charge the battery
The battery can be charged with the battery pack attached or detached from the lifter. The battery can not be
overcharged or charged too often. It is recommended to charge the battery as soon as it is not in use.
• A damaged power cord could cause electrical shock.
• Never touch any parts inside the battery pack when charging. Touching electrical parts can cause an
electric shock.
7
Page 8
• The lifter can be switched on or off when charging the battery. It is recommended that the lifter is
switched off.
• To make sure not to damage the cord when pulling it out of the electrical outlet - grab, and apply the
force to the plug.
• It is recommended to charge the battery in a full cycle, however the battery system can be plugged in
for a longer period, since it cannot be overcharged. See Battery charging indicator on page 9.
• Never operate the lifter when the battery is charging (plugged in).
• The battery system has to be charged in a grounded electrical outlet.
• Charge the battery in a designated dry area.
• Normal charging of the battery creates very small amounts of hydrogen. However, the casing is ventilated, and thereby the risk of hydrogen collection is minimal.
Charge with battery pack attached
1. Connect the power cord to a grounded electrical outlet (100 - 240 V, 50 - 60 Hz).
2. When the battery is charged, pull the power
cord out of the electric outlet and fasten it in its
holder on the mast.
Charge with battery pack detached
1. Grab the battery pack handle and lift vertically
to detach it from the lifter.
2. Place the battery in a designated dry area for
charging.
3. Connect the power cord to a grounded electrical outlet (100 - 240 V, 50 - 60 Hz).
