Braun Corporation FMVSS No. 403 403 ユーザーズマニュアル

Proper maintenance is necessary to ensure 

safe, troublefree operation.  Inspecting the lift for 

any wear, damage or other abnormal conditions 

should be a part of your daily routine.  Simple 

inspections can detect potential problems.  

The maintenance and lubrication procedures 

specified in this schedule must be performed by 

a Braun authorized service representative at the 

scheduled intervals according to the number of 

cycles.  

The Vangater II is equipped with hardened pins 

and self-lubricating bushings to decrease wear, 

provide smooth operation and extend the service 

life of the lift.      

When servicing the lift at the recommended inter-

vals, inspection and lubrication procedures speci-

fied in the previous sections should be repeated.  

Clean the components and the surrounding area 

before applying lubricants.  LPS2 General 

Purpose Penetrating Oil is recommended where 

Light Oil is called out.  Use of improper lubricants 

can attract dirt or other contaminants which could 

result in wear or damage to the components.  

Platform components exposed to contaminants 

when lowered to the ground may require extra 

attention. 

Lift components requiring grease are lubricated 

during assembly procedures.  When these com-

ponents are replaced, 

grease must be 

applied during instal-

lation procedures.  

Specified lubricants 

are available from 

The Braun Corpora-

tion (part numbers 

provided below).

All listed inspection, 

lubrication and main-

tenance procedures 

should be repeated at 

“750 cycle” intervals 

following the scheduled “4500 Cycles” maintenance.  

These intervals are a general guideline for scheduling 

maintenance procedures and will vary according to 

lift use and conditions.  Lifts exposed to severe condi-

tions (weather, environment, contamination, heavy 

usage, etc.) may require inspection and maintenance 

procedures to be performed more often than speci-

fied. 

Discontinue lift use immediately if maintenance 

and lubrication procedures are not properly per-

formed, or if there is any sign of wear, damage or 

improper operation.  Contact your sales representa-

tive or call The Braun Corporation at 1-800-THE LIFT.  

One of our national Product Support representatives 

will direct you to an authorized service technician who 

will inspect your lift.
