GUARANTEED SAFETY

ULK Lifts comply with current safety standards: DGUV Regulation 17&18, DGUV Rule 115-002, DIN 56950-1, 2006/42/CE guaranteeing maximum safety and resistance, complying with the lightweight, sturdiness and manoeuvrability requirements needed to lift audio equipment. Thanks to its easy handling and its simple and quick assembly, ULK Lift can be considered as one of the most convenient and functional lifts on the market.

ULK 500 is equipped with three safety systems to guarantee maximum reliability and resistance:

1.- It is provided with an AL-KO 900 (900 Kg) hand winch with automatic braking system. Load remains in position whenever the handle is released.

2.- ASB System (Automatic Safety Blocking System): Consisting of safety knobs which permit the user to block and unblock each of the mast sections.

3.- IPB System (Internal Pendulum Brake): Consists of an internal pendulum system that is automatically activated on each mast section if they were to suddenly fall, which can be easily unblocked by a trigger on each profile.

ULK towers are equipped with the MSU system (Mast Section Unblocking system): special levers on each mast section to unblock the internal pendulum brake system without having to dismantle the tower.

CAUTION: For outdoor assemblies, the tower must be secured with slings, wires, ropes, etc. to prevent movement caused by windy conditions and guarantee maximum stability.

IMPORTANT: THE LIFT IS NOT TO BE USED AS A HOIST FOR LIFTING, SUPPORTING OR TRANSPORTING PEOPLE.
