INTRODUCTION
The Ecolift / Ecolift 2.2 (referred to as “the machine” in this manual) is a
simple, safe and ecient alternative to step-ladders, platform/podium
steps and small scaold towers. It does not require batteries (or charging)
or connection to an electricity supply. It works by a unique, patented stored
power mechanism which enables the platform to be elevated with very little
eort by the operator.
It is designed for working internally on at, level surfaces, and, as it has no
batteries, electric motor, electrics or hydraulics, it is very ecologically friendly.
It is ideally suited to working in a very wide range of applications from the
very ‘clean’ environments of hospitals, food and drinks production facilities,
pharmaceuticals and retail, to facilities maintenance, shop-tting and indoor
construction and even on zone 1/21 hazardous areas (If ATEX option is
tted).
It is suitable for any application provided it is used within its specied
operating parameters. If used for applications such as sand blasting,
welding, paint spraying or with any other hazardous materials, measures
must be taken to ensure it does not become damaged in any way which
may impair safety, or reliability. Additional protection for the operator may
be required in some cases, which is the responsibility of the operator and/or
the operator’s employer.
The purpose of this manual is to provide essential basic information required
to operate and maintain the machine.
This is not a workshop manual. Please contact the manufacturer or their
agent for specic operation or maintenance information if in doubt.
The health and safety of the operator or maintenance technician is the
responsibility of the individual and/or their employer and not
Power Towers Ltd.
