5.6 Ground control panel
On the ground, the following devices are present on the chassis:
A) Hour meter / Battery protection
B) Emergency STOP button
C) Instability danger audible alarm
D) Battery charger warning lights
E) Battery charger socket
5.6.1 Hour-meter / battery protection voltmeter (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 of this condition through the red flashing led.
Lifting is disabled and batteries must be recharged.
5.6.2 Emergency STOP button (B)
By pressing this button the machine is completely stopped; by pulling it to the outside the machine can be turned ON by means of
the ON-OFF key.
5.6.3 Instability danger audible alarm (C)
The audible alarm goes off when the machine is not perfectly levelled. If the alarm condition is active, lifting is no longer possible.
To use the machine again lower the platform completely and position the machine on an even ground to ensure its stability.
5.6.4 Battery charger warning lights (D)
Models equipped with a built-in high frequency battery charger, are provided with this warning light indicating the operation of the
battery charger (for more detailed information read the paragraph concerning battery charge).
