The machine described in this manual is a self-propelled elevating work platform
designed to lift personnel and equipment to perform the following jobs:

professional gardening and general work

•
cleaning
•
painting and paint removal
The maximum allowed capacity for this model is 250 kg. Consider the following:

An electronic control system prevents the work platform from lifting to any
position when the load exceeds approx. 20% of the rated load given in the
technical specifications.
The platform was designed and built to be driven only from the console located
on the work platform.
The push-button is of the removable type and can only be used by the operator
to control the platform exclusively in transport position.
The controls on the ground on the rear side are for EMERGENCY use or
MAINTENANCE by qualified personnel.
Warning: NEVER exceed the machine's established maximum capacity.
Warning: It is FORBIDDEN to transport large slabs or materials since this could
increase wind resistance to a considerable extent and cause the machine to tip
over.
Warning: It is FORBIDDEN to apply horizontal loads to the platform when the
machine is moving (e.g. the operators on board must not pull ropes or cables
…
)
Warning: It is FORBIDDEN to use the machine to tow other equipment or
