7.3.6.2 Automatic brakes
The automatic activation of these brakes occurs as soon
as the work platform lifts, which locks the machine with the
operator at height. The intervention of the automatic brake
system does not relieve the operator from applying the
pedal braking system.
To check the operation of the automatic braking system:
 With platform completely lowered place the machine
on a flat ground and, without activating the pedal
braking system, it must be possible to move the
machine by acting on the handles.
 Lift the work platform of about 0.5 m bringing the
push-button station to the ground.
 In this condition (both brakes applied - both pedal
brakes released), moving the machine by pushing on
handles B must not be possible.
FIG.29
 If the machine is not locked or if you note that, by pushing on the handles the machine tends to move from its position, then it is
necessary to adjust the efficiency of the braking system or call the technical assistance.
To adjust the efficiency of the braking system (to increase the ability to keep the machine braked:
 With platform completely lowered place the machine on a flat ground, and check that the machine is completely locked.
 Unscrew lock-nut A.
 Manually unscrew braking pin B bringing it near the wheel, making sure that it is still possible to move the machine by pushing
on the handles.
 Lift the work platform of about 0.5 m bringing the push-button station to the ground and check that the machine is completely
locked.
 If the braking system is efficient, screw lock-nut A.
