3. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS.
2.12 - Winch: 900 Kg Maximum load with
automatic brake.
Certifi cation CE and GS TÜV.
2.13 - Cable : Steel DIN 3060. Quality 180
Kg/mm2 twist resistant. Cable diameter: 5
mm
2.14 - Adjustable stabilizing feet with rubber non-slip supports.
2.15 - Safety catches to anchor the legs.
2.16 - Antirust protection, primed paint
with cured polyester dust cover. The tower
can be supplied with natural aluminium
fi nish or black (version B).
2.17 - Spirit level to adjust the tower vertically.
2.18 - Swivel wheels to transport the lift
when folded.
3.1 - The TL-054 / TL-056 is a machine designed to
elevate loads upwards in a vertical direction, It should
NEVER be used as a platform to elevate people.
3.3 - The maximum load indicated on the characteristics
label and the instructions manual should not be exceeded.
3.4 - This lift should NEVER be used to elevate a load
that has not been properly checked. It is necessary to
verify that the load is correctly supported and centred
on the appropriate lift support so that the weight of the
load will only elevate in a vertical direction.
3.2 - Only place the lift on hard, fl at surfaces always
checking that it is in a vertical position by using the bubble level indicator (L) found on the base. Adjust the leg
stabilizers (Q) by turning the handles (H) to level if necessary. NEVER use wedges or other foreign objects to
balance the lift.

ENGLISH
3.6 - NEVER use the lift on a vehicle or any other mobile
surface.
3.7 - If there is a possibility of strong winds or gusts,
place the lift on the ground fi rmly and secure it with the
use of straps. NEVER attach a strap to a vehicle or any
other object that can possibly be moved.
3.8 - NEVER move the lift whilst it is carrying a load. It
is not advisable to carry out any type of horizontal movement even small positional adjustments.
3.9 - NEVER allow any team member below the load or
anybody else in the lifts operating zone.
3.10 - Take care with all obstacles above the lift and
its extension zone such as cornices, balconies, and
luminous signboards. It is very important to avoid the
presence of all types of cables below the extended lift.
3.5 - Check that the legs (P) are placed and set-up correctly with their safety pins (R) inserted and locked.

ENGLISH
3.11 - Do not use stepladders on the lift or use it as a
support for them.
3.12 - Before using the lift, check the condition of the
cable. The cable should not have broken threads or
show any signs of crushed/fl attened areas. NEVER use
faulty cables, always change them if there is any doubt.
Only use VMB steel cables; reference: DIN 3060.
Quality: 180KG/mm and torsion resistant.
3.14 - Do not grease or lubricate the winch’s braking
mechanism. The brake disks have been greased with
a special heat and pressure resistant solution. Other
products should not be used to avoid negative effects
regarding the braking mechanism.
3.15 - The minimum load to avoid problems regarding
the braking mechanism is 25Kg. Without this load the
brake will not work.
3.16 - NEVER take apart the crank of the winch when
the lift is carrying a load or extended.
3.13 - All sections must be lowered fi rst, and the legs
placed in its transport position, before transportation.

4. USER INSTRUCTIONS.
4.1 - Place the lift on a fi rm, fl at surface
in the area it is to be used with the help of
the transport wheels (T).
4.2 - Remove the legs (P) from their trans-
port compartment (S) and fully insert them
into their working positions (V) checking
that they are fi xed by the pins (R).
4.3 - Check that the lift is in vertical position using the spirit level (L) at the base of
the tower, adjust the stabilizer (Q), turning
the handle (H) if necesary.
4.4 - Release the forks (F) and place them
in its working position ready to take the
load on them. Insert the pins to block the
forks.
4.5 - DO NOT OVERLOAD THE LIFT.
TL-054 MAXIMUM LOAD IS 220 kg
TL-056 MAXIMUM LOAD IS 200 kg
The lift should NEVER be overloaded.
Safety at work is the most important issue. Place the load onto the lift using an
adequate VMB support according to the
need, use so that the weight of the load
will only be elevated in a vertical direction.
The minimum load is 25 Kg.
4.6 - How to place the load: Always load
as close to the tower as possible.
The maximum load diminishes according
to the distance from the body of the tower
as illustrated in the diagram 4.6.1, which
shows the load on the gravity centre with
distances to the lifting carriage at a maximum lifting.
CAUTION
When two towers are used to elevate a
truss bridge, or many towers to elevate a
structure of any type, it is almost impossible that two or more people co-ordinate
the winches elevating or lowering the
loads, at exactly the same pace. At a certain point each tower will be extended to
different height. For this reason it is necessary that the structure does not stretch
and allows for these differences.
With a rigid fi xation and if the level difference is signifi cant, the force generated

ENGLISH
This VMB system automatically blocks
each profi le and the lifting carriage in the
unlikely event of cable breaking.
4.7 - Elevation:
Turn the winch crank clockwise (N1) to
lift the carriage. The unique SRS system
(Sequence Retainer System) will ensure
that the profi les rise in sequence, one after the other.
4.8 - Hold:
The tower can be left in any intermediate
position if it is necessary. Just stop turning
the handle of the winch and leave it. The
automatic brake of the winch will block it
and hold the load.
4.9 - Lowering:
To bring the lift down you need to fi rst turn
the winch handle gently clockwise (N1) to
release the clutch of the winch. Then turn
the handle anti clockwise (N2) until all profi les have been completely lowered.
4.10 - Transport:
For the transport of the tower is necessary
to fold the machine lowering every profi le
completely. Once the towerlift is completely folded, place the legs in their transport compartment (S) and the lift will be
ready to be transported.
from the handle of the winch will deform
the structure and apply a lateral force to
the lifts causing them to break and block.
Security system ILS
The TL-054 / TL-056 incorporates the ILS
security system (Inertial Lock Security).
