Ground requirements

Foundation 

The floor where the machine is to be installed shall be constituted from un-fissured concrete, levelled, at least 200 mm of thickness, built with a resistance class of C25/30 minimum, allowing the fixing to the ground of the lift with the aid of the M16 or higher anchors supplied with the machine. 

If these conditions are not satisfied, proper foundations will have to be prepared with a gravel floor with a minimum thickness of at least 50 millimetre; on the gravel floor the user shall lay a steel electro-welded mesh with quadrant of 10 cm and with a wire diameter equal or greater to 8 millimetre. On top of the mesh a concrete layer with a thickness of at least 160 millimetre shall be placed.

The surface where the lift has to be installed must be even and leveled in all directions. An inclination not higher than 2 cm in drive-on lift direction and 1 cm cross-wise can be balanced with leveling wedges.

For installation on raised surface, the compliance with the maximum carrying capacity of the surface is recommended.

The new concrete must be adequately cured by at least 21 days minimum.
