BASIC CONSTRUCTIVE DATA  

 

MACHINE FRAME: 

The frame of the machine (called base) is built completely with galvanised iron 

profiles with rectangular section. All essential components are installed on the frame for normal 
machine operation in stable conditions. 
 

EXTENDING STRUCTURE:

 The extending structure is made of special extruded aluminium alloy 

profiles that slide along each other on sliding blocks with nylon wheels. The kinematic connection 
between profiles is realized by chains. 
A fluid power cylinder is installed between the first and second profile that, powered by the hydraulic 
control unit, enables to lift the structure. The chains connect the extendible structure elements to 
each other so that these can simultaneously lift. 

 

WORK PLATFORM:

 The work platform is completely made of extruded aluminium profiles. The 

base floor is made of an aluminium sheet coated with a non-slip protection. 
 

EXPOSURE TO VIBRATIONS:

 The machine does not produce vibrations such as to endanger the 

health of the operators. The weighted acceleration to which the entire body is subjected is less than 
0.5 m/s

2

 

 

ACOUSTIC EMISSIONS:

 The A-weighted emission sound pressure level is below 70dB 

 
 
 

 
 
 
 

 

ATTENTION 

THE AERIAL PLATFORM ELEVAH 70 HAS BEEN TESTED BY THE MANUFACTURER 

THROUGH: 

 

 

STATIC STABILITY TESTS; 
 

 

OVERLOAD TESTS; 

 

 

OPERATION TESTS.
