Connecting the ventilation pipe
The connection of a ventilation pipe is mandatory. Furthermore, ventilation is necessary to make sure that the lifting unit functions correctly. Follow these points to connect the ventilation pipe:
- A 2.5 m ventilation hose with Kamlock coupling is included in the scope of delivery. Make sure to use the ventilation hose to permit the dismantling of the cover of the supply box/distributor if necessary.
- For dry installation in buildings, route the ventilation pipe over the roof of the building.
- For underground dry installation outside buildings, route the ventilation pipe over the surface. Install the ventilation pipe with gauze and a rain cap 60 cm above the ground surface level.
- Make sure that all connections are fully tight.

- The lifting unit is installed.
- The ventilation pipe is laid.
- Attach the ventilation hose to the hose clamp (Kamlock coupling).
- Open the handles of the hose clamp (Kamlock coupling) upright.
- Route the ventilation hose to the stationary ventilation pipe.
- Attach two clamps on the ventilation hose at the side that is connected to the stationary ventilation pipe.
- Push the ventilation hose on the stationary ventilation pipe and fasten with the two clamps. Tightening torque: 5 Nm (3.7 ft·lb).
