Quick operation guide
The BGV-C1 is an indoor certification. If you are going to use the
towerlift outdoor and require a wind speed calculation please con-
tact us, or contact a certified structural engineer.
4. USER INSTRUCTIONS.
4.1 - Place the lift on a firm, flat surface
in the area it is to be used with the help of
the transport wheels (T).
4.2 - Untighten the security knobs (K) and
remove the legs (P) from their transport
compartment (S) and fully insert them into
their working positions (V) checking that
they are fixed by the pins (R).
4.3 - Check that the lift is in vertical posi-
tion 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.
MAXIMUM LOAD IS 270 kg (595 lb) TL-063
The lift should NEVER be overloaded.
Safety at work is the most important is-
sue. 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. Use a VMB adaptor
if necessary.
CAUTION
When two towers are used to elevate a
truss bridge, or many towers to elevate a
structure of any type, it is almost impossi-
ble that two or more people coordinate 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 fixation and if the level diffe-
rence is significant, the force generated
from the handle of the winch will deform
the structure and apply a lateral force to
the lifts causing them to break and block.
