Lifting platform
The lift table features a standard safety frame fitted to the underside of the platform. If the safety frame is triggered when the lift is travelling down it stops the lift. This prevents trapping and crushing injuries. The lifting platform can also be customised to suit individual usage. (See “Options / Equipment”.)
There is a given relation between platform length and lifting height, the longer the platform the higher the stroke (lifting height) of the scissor package. This can be overcome by using a double scissor package (one on top of the other) where a standard platform length is required with a high stroke. Where a long platform length is required with a short stroke a tandem scissor package (two short sides placed end to end) can be used.

Scissors package
The scissors package consists of two parallel pairs of scissors. The scissors package carries the load and is placed between the lifting platform and the base frame. It can be designed to suit various lifting heights, lifting height sequences and load capacities. The scissor package can be equipped with safety equipment such as mesh guarding or bellows guarding.
(See “Optional equipment”.)
Base frame
The base frame is the foundation of the lift table and distributes the total pressure against the floor. There are different types of base frames. At frequent use the base frame can be equipped with replaceable wear strips for the wheels in the scissors package. During lifting and lowering movement of goods, during driving or demand of higher roll over load in the bottom position, the base frame can be reinforced.
Hydraulic equipment /Drive unit
The hydraulic power can be designed to meet specific duty cycles, lifting speeds and operating environments.
