This paragraph describes the procedures to be followed and the controls
to be used if a problem arises (the platform breaks down or someone is
trapped in the basket) while the platform is operating.
When taking charge of the machine and at regular intervals afterwards,
the operator (and anyone else whose duties are centred on activities in
contact with the machine) should read and fully understand this
procedure.
INDISPOSITION OF THE USER
If the user should be taken ill or become incapable of manoeuvring the
machine, the person on the ground can take over the access platform
controls using the ground backup and maintenance station.
Follow the instructions below:
- Switch the key-operated contactor 1 (Fig. A) on the ground backup and
maintenance console to position C, to take over control of the access
platform's movements.
- Lower the access platform.
Pay attention to any structure or obstacle located below the access
platform.
IN THE EVENT OF ACCIDENT OR BREAKDOWN
Evacuate anyone in the basket.
If an accident or a breakdown occurs, which renders the electrical boxes
unusable, the machine is provided with systems for performing all the
movements manually.
- Open the right cowling of the turret.
- To execute one of the platform’s movements, you must index the knob by
pulling or pushing it (Fig. B) OR push or pull on the pusher (Fig. C) for one
of the distributor’s elements (Diagram E Page 2 - 26) and pump
simultaneously (Fig. D).
