Common Precautions about Lifter Masts You Should Know
March 12,2022
With the development of industry, lifter collapsable masts are widely used in various fields, which greatly improves our production efficiency. In order to use the lifting mast more correctly and reasonably, we have summarized the common precautions and hope to give you some reference.
Hazard warning:

- When using the mobile lifter camera mast, please make sure that the equipment is perpendicular to the ground, and it is forbidden to tilt.
- Keep away from high-voltage power equipment, and there should be no obstacles such as wires above it when in use.
- When using a mobile lifter mobile mast during thunderstorms, lightning protection facilities must be installed in accordance with the specifications.
- Please pay attention to the voltage and current of the load electrical appliances, and do not use overload.
Other precautions:
- The pneumatic lift mast is precision manufactured, please do not disassemble, punch or weld on the surface of the mast by yourself, otherwise it will cause damage or air leakage.
- Do not hit, scrape or rub the surface of the pneumatic lift mast with hard objects.
- The installation of the load should be symmetrically arranged with the pneumatic lifting mast as the center and fixed firmly.
- The electrical box should avoid moisture (pneumatic lift mast anti-micro-leakage and pressure-preserving device).
- Please inject a small amount of lubricating oil into the mast every two months through the gap between the coupling sleeve and the cylinder.
- The pneumatic lifting mast pressure maintaining device is equipped with an automatic air supply function. When the mast is used for a long time, the air pump can automatically start when the internal pressure is insufficient due to micro leakage, and automatically stop when the standard air pressure is reached.
Installation instructions:
-
Side installation
The installation of the manual telescopic lifter should be connected at least at two points, and the connection should be firm.
If the pneumatic lift mast is installed in the carriage, please pay attention to the waterproof measures at the opening.
-
Portable tripod installation
Install the pneumatic lift mast and tripod first. The pneumatic lift mast first passes through the hole on the top plate of the tripod. The base of the pneumatic lift rod is connected to the lower mounting plate of the tripod, fixed with screws, and then erected on the ground together. Open the tripod legs and adjust the length of the struts so that the triangular bottom plate on the legs is close to the ground, and the pneumatic lift mast is vertical to the ground.
Finally, use the ground nails to pass through the fixing holes on the triangular bottom plate, and use a hammer to drive the ground nails into the ground, fixed tripod.
-
Pneumatic lift mast rises
Connect the air pump and air pipe, turn on the power supply, and inflate the pneumatic lift mast to rise.
-
Pneumatic lift rod descends
Open the air release switch to release air, and the pneumatic lift mast descends.
-
The use of wind-resistant fiber rope
There is a safety hook at one end of the steel wire rope, which is fastened on the rope angle plate of the pneumatic lifting rod or the rope hanging ring on the connecting sleeve, and the other end is equipped with a flower orchid. And please hang the safety hook before the pneumatic lift rod goes up.
Routine maintenance
- The pneumatic lifting mast adopts self-lubricating material, and the lifting process does not require oil lubrication. However, our pneumatic lift masts are already installed with high-efficiency grease, which helps to protect the pipe wall and seals.
You can add a small amount of lubricating oil on a regular basis (usually every three or four months depending on usage). Since the mast is filled with lubricating oil, oil mist will be ejected with the air in the pipe when exhausting, which is a normal phenomenon.
- After the pneumatic lift rod product is used for a period of time, the buffer rubber pad at the coupling sleeve may be degummed or dropped. Please pay attention to replenishing or replacing it. However, the falling off of the cushion will not affect the normal use of the pneumatic lift rod.
In conclusion
The above is all about the precautions about lifter masts, hope that it can give you some instructions. We are a leading manufacturer of mobile lifter mobile mast, also providing customers with manual telescopic lifter, for more information, we are glad to serve you.
