4. HOW TO USE
1. Place the lifting tower over a firm and flat
surface on its working place.
2. Remove the pin (Q) and fix it (R). Activate
the tensor (P) in all its outriggers until the lif-
ting tower is stable on the surface.
3. Put the load on top of the lifting tower
using a suitable support, in order to make the
weight work only in vertically. The minimum
load must be 25kg. It is possible to manually
block it with the safety pins (A).
4. Elevation: Turn the winch handle (B) cloc-
kwise to lift the load until the wished posi-
tion, checking that safety pins (A) are activa-
ted (T).
5. Lowering: release the safety pins (A) doing
the action U. To release them, turn slightly
the winch handle to elevate the load. In the
normal working position, the load's weight
does not allow to release the safety pins.
Once the safety pin (A) is unblocked, turn
the winch handle (B) anticlockwise until
lowering the load and the first profile is com-
pletely down. Release the safety pins (A) and
keep on lowering the lifting tower until the
second profile is completely down. Unblock
the safety pin (A) and continue lowering the

lifting tower until it is completely folded as at
its minimum height. The lifting tower can be
fixed at any needed intermediate position as
well as when raising the load, fixing the safety
pin (A) in the position (S).
6. For the lifting towers' transport it is neces-
sary to bring down all the profiles, releasing
the safety pin (A) doing the action U. Fix the
profiles with the safety pins (A) in the posi-
tion (S).
5. MAINTENANCE
1. Periodically check cable status. If the cable
seems to have broken cable wires or crus-
hing, replace immediately with a new one.
Never use the lifting tower with cables in bad
conditions. Only use galvanized steel under
EN 12385-4. Cable maximum load: 2.150kg.
Cable torsion resistance: 1.770N/mm². Cable
diameter: 6mm. Cable composition: 7x19+0.
2. The lifting tower is supplied fully greased
from factory. Nevertheless, periodical grea-
sing is recommended as per use to the crown
gear of the winch, to the threaded bar of the
stabiliser outriggers and the profiles too.
WARNING:
DO NOT GREASE OR LUBRICATE BRA-
KING MECHANISM
Braking disks were greased with a special
heat and pressure resistant grease. No other
product must used to prevent negative in-
fluence on brake functioning.
3. Lifting tower ELV-200/6, must be checked
by an expert once a year minimum as per its
use.
4. Only original spare parts must be used to
ensure continued safe use. The user loses all
guarantee rights if spare parts other than the
originals are incorporated or modifies the
product in any way.
5. To request any spare part, contact the
manufacturer or an authorised distributor
within your territory.
