5.1.5.6 Red warning light, danger due to instability or drive control disable
H - Figure 5-1: Lit up steady with activation of audible alarm (the audible alarm is active only if the platform is lifted) when the
machine is not perfectly levelled. Lifting movement is no longer possible (nor drive if platform is lifted). To use the machine again
lower the platform completely and position the machine on an even ground to ensure its stability.
Or, in condition of platform lifted, with one or both pot-hole guards not lowered, drive control is disabled.
5.2 Ground control panel
The ground control panel is located on the chassis (see paragraph "Location of main components") and is used to:
▪ Turn the machine ON/OFF.
▪ Select the control panel (ground or platform).
▪ Operate the platform in emergency cases.
▪ Display some working parameters (work hours, battery charge level, etc…).
IT IS FORBIDDEN
To use the ground control panel as a workstation when personnel is on the platform.
Use the ground control panel only to start/stop the machine, to select the control panel or in emergency
situations to allow the platform to be recovered.
Give the key to authorized persons and keep a duplicate in a safe place.

5-3: Ground control panel
5.2.1 Hour meter/battery protection (A)
The hour-meter displays the working hours of the electric pump. Platform lowering occurs by gravity and does not require the
switching on of the electric pump, therefore the time used for this operation is not counted by the hour-meter.
The function of the battery protection Voltmeter is for preserving the battery, avoiding it from discharging excessively. Once the
battery has reached a discharge level of 20%, the control system informs the operator on board of this condition through the red
flashing led (previously described). Lifting is disabled and batteries must be recharged. On the ground control panel, the condition
of flat battery is reported in the following way:
▪ The last two leds on the left flash alternatively if the indicator is round-shaped.
▪ Only the last two small squares are lit if the indicator is a LCD display.
