See § 1.12.3. of AS1418.10-1996 for details of the test.
The machine is to show no signs of permanent deformation.
5.4.2. Functional test.
These tests are to demonstrate that:
•
The machine can operate smoothly through all motions whilst carrying the rated safe working load.
•
All safety devices are working correctly.
•
The maximum permitted operating speeds are not exceeded.
5.4.3. Stability test.
See § 1.12.2 of AS1418.10-1996 for additional testing details. The elevating work platform must come to a
stationary condition without overturning.
WARNING:
In order to safeguard the elevating platform against tipping during the stability test, it is
imperative that a restraining device such as an anchor block and chain be used to restrain the
unit during the stability test.
This chain shall not assist in stabilising the platform prior to it reaching a point of tipping should it occur for
any reason i.e. uncontrolled application of test load.
