DIRECTLY, THE SAFETYSYSTEM OF THE PLATFORM IS
OUT OF FUNCTION.
WHEN OPERATING THE PLATFORM DIRECTLY ON THE
HYDRAULIC VALVES, “TELESCOPE IN” IS THE ONLY
FUNCTION TO BE USED UNTIL THE TELESCOPE IS
FULLY RETRACTED. FAILURE TO DO SO, CAN CAUSE
PERSONNEL INJURY OR DEATH.
CALL AUTHORISED MAINTENANCE IMMEDIATELY.
Before starting any manual emergency procedure the
platform must always be stabilised, as follows:

2.
Main arm up.
1.
Check that the locking screw (Fig. 2.5) on the hand pump
is locked to the flght.
2.
Open up the emergency control valve (Fig. 2.1).
3.
Activate the valve block (Fig. 1.2) function according to the
sign (Fig. 1.3).
4.

For entering narrow places the outriggers can be swung
parallel to the base and locked into position. The footplates
can be removed if most narrow position is required.
5.
Now the SPIDER is ready for transport.
6.
If the SPIDER only has to be moved a short distance for the
next job, it is only necessary to take the outriggers off the
ground a few inches/centimetres and then drive the
SPIDER to the next place if space allows.
When the SPIDER is transported, the outriggers shall be raised
a minimum of 5 cm above the ground.
3.4 DRIVING THE SPIDER – SELF-PROPELLED DRIVE.
1.
The
SPIDER
is self-propelled via a helm station, which
means that it can lift itself on and off a truck, trailer, etc. and
be moved to ajob site and back.
2.
To change the axle width on rear set of wheels, lift the
wheels off the ground with the outriggers. See instructions
for setting up the SPIDER. (Section E). Remove locking pin

space allows.
WHEN DRIVING THE SPIDER WITH THE AXLES IN THE
STOWED POSITION, KEEP THE PLATFORM ON HARD,
FLAT GROUND AND IN LOW SPEED. IF THE PLATFORM
IS DRIVEN ON A SLOPE IT CAN TIP OVER AND CAUSE
INJURY OR DEATH. USE THE WIDEST AXLE WIDTH
POSSIBLE AT ALL TIMES.
