Control table
The CU 2DV control table is set up so that the vehicle to be lifted is in clear view.
The distance to the hydraulic cylinder furthest away should be such that the hose length
available has adequate reserve.
The scope of supply includes 1 m connection hose so that the hydraulic power pack can be
connected directly or at a distance using the pair of hose extensions.
The hose lines are coupled to the table in accordance with the symbols (see also Individual
Module - Control Table Operating Instructions).

Lifting cylinder with accessories
If the derailed rail-bound vehicle allows adequate space, the required rerailing equipment
can be introduced. With single-point lifting it is important to ensure that the hydraulic cylin-
der is correctly dimensioned with regard to its applied force and possible use of stacking
material.
If the necessary free space is not available around the derailed vehicle, foot-plates can
be used to carry out an initial lift. The foot-plate must be located fully on suitable stacking
material. The vehicle is also put down on the relevant lifting points using suitable stacking
material.
If the lift height is not adequate, a remedy can be achieved by using a step set.
LUKAS recommends that an inclination angle of 5° is not exceeded during lifting.
If stacking material is used between the cylinder or the roller carriage, it must be designed
for use with the relevant pressure and lateral forces

. A stacking height appropriate to the

situation must also be taken into account.
