Regular inspection and conscientious maintenance is the key to efficient economical oper-
ation of your aerial work platform. It will help to assure that your equipment will perform
satisfactorily with a minimum of service and repair.
The actual operating environment of the machine governs the inspection schedule. Cor-
rect lubrication is an essential part of the preventative maintenance to minimize wear on
working parts and ensure against premature failure. By maintaining correct lubrication, the
possibility of mechanical failure and resulting downtime is reduced to a minimum.
• Never leave hydraulic components or hoses open. They must be protected from contamina-
tion (including rain) at all times.
• Never open a hydraulic system when there are contaminants in the air.
• Always clean the surrounding area before opening hydraulic systems.
• Use only recommended lubricants. Improper lubricants or incompatible lubricants may be as
harmful as no lubrication.
• Watch for makeshift “fixes” which can jeopardize safety as well as lead to more costly repair.
