TRANSPORT
/ WORK SPEED MODE LIMITATION
The pendular arm can raise and lower in transport
speed mode with the telescope retracted.
Details on changing from transport speed to
working speed:
Extend the telescope less than 2cm and the lower
arms to the stop (raised < 5cm); over either of
these values, the platform switches to working
speed mode.
INSTALLATION ON THE WORK SITE AND LIFTING
The platform has been designed to work on a flat, horizontal surface: it is important to clear the area where the platform
will operate.
Make sure you are familiar with the instrumentation at the ground backup and maintenance station and the
basket control station, described in the pages above, particularly the warnings indicating the risks linked to
performing certain movements.
- Move the access platform into its working area.
- If necessary, load the equipment and the supplies, distribute the load uniformly (arrange it in a way so as not to
inconvenience the user and avoid any items falling off).
- Climb into the access platform.
It is strongly recommended to wear a safety helmet and harness.
During maneuvres of the access platform (raise, rotate, etc, ...), keep looking above and about you. Watch out in parti-
cular for electric cables and any other objects that may be located in the volume in which the access platform moving.
LOWERING
When the work has been completed : lower the telescope and the arm, returning the machine to the transportation
position.
Watch out carefully for people on the ground when lowering the access platform
STOPPING OF THE ACCESS PLATFORM
When the platform is not being used, switch off the power supply by setting the key-operated contactor to the
Neutral position (see 2 – KEY-OPERATED CONTACTOR).
At the end of the day: recharge the batteries if necessary (see the Chapter "MAINTENANCE INTERVALS").
Always set the battery cut-out to the OFF position when you are not using the platform.
< 2cm
Raise to the maximum, up to 5cm
