NB: You must use Ramp speed (full power with the speed restricted) to cross over steep slopes or move over very broken
ground. This can prove very useful, for instance, if an access ramp must be borrowed to move the lifting platform onto a
truck bed.
t
IMPORTANT
t
In Work mode, any movement over broken ground, loose surfaces, slopes greater than the authorised level of tilt (see the CHARACTERISTICS section) likely to
overturn or unbalance the lifting platform is PROHIBITED.
t
IMPORTANT
t
The turret must be in the lifting platform’s axis when making a translation in Hare mode.
t
IMPORTANT
t
Before driving the lifting platform, ensure that the turret is correctly oriented with respect to the chassis, i.e. in the translation direction (black and white arrows).
In the case of a steep slope: - no load in the basket;
INSTALLATION ON THE WORK SITE AND LIFTING
The lifting platform has been designed to work on a flat, horizontal surface; it is important to clear the space in which the
lifting platform will be working.
Bring the lifting platform to the work site.
If necessary, load the equipment to be carried (stack so as not to inconvenience the operator and prevent anything falling).
Climb into the lifting platform.
t
IMPORTANT
t
Wearing a safety helmet and a harness is compulsory.
Press the “Dead Man’s” pedal and start to manoeuvre to position yourself in the work area.
NB: When the lifting platform is free of the chassis, translation switches automatically to slow speed.
Only the pendular arm can be raised completely while maintaining Transport speed.
t
IMPORTANT
t
When manoeuvring the lifting platform (lifting, rotation...), look around and above you. Pay particular attention to the electric cables and any items that may be in
the lifting platform’s operating space.
t
IMPORTANT
t
Familiarise yourself with the instruments on the ground maintenance and emergency station and in the basket, described in the previous pages and in particular the
warnings specifying the risks involved in performing certain manoeuvres.
Work mode : one or more of the lifting platform’s arms are raised and/or the telescope
is extended. In this mode, translations are made at slow speed and the safety systems
for tilt and overload are active.
