INSTALLATION Once the product out of is packaging, assembled and on the oor, make a try to check the good functionning. The command panel is attached to the lever. Start and verication (attempt) - Screw the compressed air connexion tip on the command remote box and connect it to the compressed air circuit. - Check that the pressure is correct (Max 8 bar). - Check that there is no air leakage and that the cable is not damaged. VenturiMontéeDescente Air LIFTING CHECK: After performing the verications listed above, push the joystick up continuouly in order to raise the SPOT LIFT PRO MOB. Once the maximum height is reached, releease the joystick in order to put it back on its initial position. Disconnect the air supply to make sure that the SPOT LIFT PRO MOB does not lower. LOWERING CHECK: Before any operation, make sure that nothing is under the SPOT LIFT PRO. To get the product to lower, check that the air supply is connected and continuously push the joystick down. The SPOT LIFT PRO will go down to its lowest point. If these 2 steps have been successful, the product is ready to use. INSTRUCTIONS 1/ LIFTING OPERATIONS

WARNING: Before lifting a vehicle, make sure that the hand brake is released, that the vehicle is on

neutral and that tyres pressure is enough to maintain the vehicle in balance. Position the SPOT LIFT PRO MOB under the vehicle and centre it widthwise. Extend arms until that the rubber pads are in posi- tion, in accordance with the car manufacturer’s recommenda- tions. Pads are height adjustable. Fix the height with the small bar in order to be as close as possible of the lowest part of the vehicle. Once the tool is positioned, proceed with the lifting operation : Check that no bulky objects are in the safety area - Push the joystick up until the height is sucient - Stop the lifting by releasing the joystick. After lifting the vehicle, it must be support by 2 safety links, which must be locked using the safety pins. (Do not go under the vehicle to position them) - Push the joystick down fo the SPOT LIFT PRO MOB rests on the safety links, which will secure the load. - Disconnect the air hose from the control panel so you may move around the vehicle freely.15

Translation of the original instructions Before lowering the SPOT LIFT PRO MOB, make sure that no electric cable or object are going through the scissors. SAFETY MEASURE - The SPOT LIFT PRO must be used by trained and authorized people. Moreover, they must have read this user manual. It must be read carefully before using the SPOT LIFT PRO MOB. It is forbidden to lift people wit this product.

• Check the load, especially when lifting, while ensuring there is no anomaly. In the event of an issue, the SPOT LIFT PRO MOB must go down as soon as possible and postionned correctly.

• Clean the vehicle supporting surface, make sure that there is no oil or grease which may maje the vehicle slip

• This product is solely a lifting tool. After lifting the vehicle, it must be supported by safety links.

• Do not put the pads on an area next to airbags sensors or on an area covered with plastic.

• Do not put the pads on an area covered with plastic.

• The tool is equipped with a safety valve whcih opens itself when the pressure inside the airchambers is too high (5.5 bar)

• Check that the input pressure is ≤ 8 bar. If necessary, use a pressure regulator.

• Once the work is done, systematically lower the load down to the ground so the SPOT LIFT PRO MOB does remain under a full load for a long period of time.

• The device must not be used in an explosive atmopshere and it preferable to not work close to a heat source (risque of explosion in the air chambers).

• It is forbidden to use the device on a boat (stability issues).

• It is forbidden to use spare parts other than the ones cerited by GYS.

• Do not lift loads other than the ones the SPOT LIFT PRO MOB is designed to lift.

• If in doubt about the solidity of the vehicle (rust) - Do not lift the vehicle.

TROUBLESHOOTING CAUSES SOLUTIONS

The joystick is activated but the product does not lift up. Excessive charge Check vehicle's weight and follow manu- facturer instructions. Insucient air pressure for the charge. Check that the air supply is ≤ 8 bars. Make sure the air pipe is not tangled. Air leaks during the lifting. Security valve faulty Change safety valve Air pressure too important Adjust air pressure (7/8 bars max) The product goes down by itself when the joystick is on its initial position. Check that airchambers are not brea- ched. Change airchambers. Leak inside the pneumatic circuit Check air circulation, connections and pneumatic control. (cf. pneumatic circuit p.36) The products stops while doing down. There are obstacles between scissors of the machine. Remove the obstacle.
