5.3 - UNLOADING
Before unloading, check that the machine is in good condition.
• Remove the tie downs.
• Switch the machine on.
• Move progressively the drive joystick (108).
To reinstate the system, lift the platform a few centimetres (inches) from the ground control
box.
5.4 - TOWING
To tow a broken-down machine, release brake (Refer to Section D 5.4.1 Brake release).
Perform this operation on flat ground with wheels chocked.
In the towing configuration, the machine braking system is inactive. Use a drawbar to avoid
any risk of accident :
• Do not exceed the maximum speed (machine unfolded) (Refer to Section B 4 Technical
specifications).
• Do not exceed a grade of 25%.
Warning : Upon starting a machine that has been secured and transported, the safety system may detect
a false overload preventing all movement from the platform control box.
In the event of a machine breakdown, the machine can be towed a short distance to load it onto a transport
vehicle :
• Ensure that no one is in the platform during towing.
• Prior to towing, ensure mast is fully retracted.
• The platform must be empty.
• ALWAYS keep personnel and obstructions clear of the aerial work platform when brakes are released.
