Unpacking the Lift Table and Water Reservoir
The packaging for the lift table and water reservoir are similar. Both devices are delivered in a cardboard
box on a wooden pallet.
- Cut and remove fixing straps (1) and remove the edge protections (2).
- Remove the lid (3) and the sidewall. To remove the sidewall, unscrew the locks (4).
- Use at least two people to move the device off the pallet.
Electrical Lift Table
Carefully unpack the device from the transportation box; observe the general instructions stated at the beginning of this chapter. Retain the original packing material in case shipment becomes necessary. Inspect the Electrical Lift Table:
- Check that the mains connection is in accordance with information on the device's rating label.
- Verify that the lift table is working correctly by moving it over the full vertical range.
- Check the floor condition at those locations where you want to drive or place the lift table. Ensure that the maximum load capacity of the floor is sufficient.
Check the extension legs. Unlock the leg by pulling out the lock and then stretch the leg outwards and lock again. Check whether the direction locks in the front wheels and the breaks on the rear wheels.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: OVERHEATING
The telescope drive is not equipped with mechanical end switches. If the highest or lowest position is reached, the drive is stopped by the electrical control unit using an over-current circuit breaker.
In the same way, the motor is also stopped in case of overheating. Wait until the temperature has decreased significantly before continuing to operate the lift table.
CAUTION: CAUTION DURING MOVEMENT OF LIFT TABLE
Because of the ability of the automatic lift-table to exert a strong force, and because of the heavy weight of the filled water-tank, exercise care during movement of the lift-table in any direction and ensure clearance around the lift-table and phantom.
Water Reservoir
The water reservoir is delivered completely assembled. Carefully unpack it from the transportation case.
Keep the original packing material in case reshipment becomes necessary.
- Check that the mains connection is in accordance to information indicated on the water reservoir's rating label.
- Check the floor condition at the locations where you want to move or place the water reservoir. Check that the maximum load capacity of the floor is sufficent.
Filling the Water Reservoir
Prepare a container of water to fill the water reservoir. If you use the water tank of the phantom, fill
water to ~1 cm above the maximum water level marker (1).- Plug the power cord to the mains supply.
- Place the water hose in the water and press the Drain button on the hand control of the water reservoir.
The pumping speed can be increased if the setting in pumping speed control is not yet at maximum.
Initial waiting time
If the water reservoir has been connected to the mains outlet the first time, there is an initial waiting time of approximately 20 seconds. During this time, the electromagnetic valve is opened in order to remove the air between the pump and the electromagnetic valve. The green LED of the Stop button flashes during this time.
