2.1.41 California Proposition 65:- Operating, servicing and maintaining this product can expose you to
chemicals including engine exhaust, carbon monoxide, phthalates, and lead, which are known to the
State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. To minimize exposure,
avoid breathing exhaust, do not idle the engine except as necessary, service in a well-ventilated area
and wear gloves or wash your hands frequently when servicing.
Breathing diesel engine exhaust exposes you to chemicals known to the State of California to cause
cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Always start and operate the engine in a well-
ventilated area, if in an enclosed area, vent the exhaust to the outside. Do not modify or tamper with the
exhaust system.
2.2 ENVIRONMENTAL LIMITATIONS
Unless specifically configured otherwise, the machine will have a short operational time in extreme
temperatures such as freezers and cold storage, due to reduced battery performance. For electrical
cables and components, the temperature must be within the range -5°C to 60°C.
The machine is limited in high temperatures because of the cooling requirement for engines and
hydraulic oil. Coolant temperatures must be within the range -37°C to 110°C (at 50% mixture of water
to anti-freeze). Oil temperature must not exceed –23°C to 93°C.
The recommended operational range for these machines is - 5°C to +40°C. Please contact
Niftylift Ltd for special considerations if the machine is required to operate outside these
temperatures.
Extended operation in dusty environments is not recommended, frequent cleaning will be necessary. All
dust, dirt, salt encrustation, excess oil or grease should be removed. Deposits of paint or bitumen,
particularly on legends or labels should be removed.
All standard Niftylift machines are rated for a wind speed of 28mph or force 6 on the Beaufort scale.
No attempt should be made to operate a Niftylift in wind strengths above this limit and if the operator
has any doubts over the wind speed he / she should cease operation immediately until it can be
established that the wind speed has fallen to a safe level.
DO NOT USE THE NIFTYLIFT IN ELECTRICAL STORMS
