9.8. Rack manual lubrication
If the machine is not equipped with an auto-lubricating device, avaiable on option, the rack must
be lubricated manually. It is advisable to be two (2) persons to proceed with lubrication, one
person operating the platform and the other assuring continuous lubrication. Follow the
instructions below:
1. Open the roof access trap.
2. Install the bypass key (EBL-0015) in the interlock.
3. The operator elevates the platform. During that time, lubricate the rack with a greasing pistol,
applying lubricant the length of the mast between the teeth of the rack.
4. Remove the bypass key and store it in the tool compartment when lubrication is complete.
Important! It is prohibited to use this key for any bypass of the safety line.
An adequate and periodic lubrification respecting the lubrification scheme (SEE SECTION 9.7 PERIODIC
LUBRIFICATION, ON PAGE 72) assures an optimal lifespan of the gearing systems and rack.
