9.6 Hydraulic oil level
Hydraulic oil level can be checked with the dipstick in the filler cap (Figure 20 (1)). Oil level should be
at the upper mark in the dipstick when the lift is in transport position (booms down on transport
supports and outriggers completely up).
9.7 Battery check
The original battery is maintenance-free. In order to secure the starting and safe operation the battery
must be checked regularly. Inspect and clean battery terminals regularly. Check also condition and
fastening of battery cables and terminal insulators. Make sure that battery cables cannot chafe
against any sharp edges. Check also condition and fastening of battery disconnect switch and cables.
9.8 Check of set-up control system
Check set-up control always before operating the access platform
.
When all four outriggers are firmly against ground the green automatic leveling signal light will blink
(Figure 5 (5)). Drive outriggers
manually
against ground:
-
If the green automatic leveling signal light will blink before all four outriggers touch the ground
the outrigger control system there is a malfunction or a fault in the system and the operation
must be stopped immediately (excluding the situation where automatic leveling has been
activated).
-
The cause of the malfunction can be found out on the splitter box (Figure 23) in the rear of the
chassis. In the box connectors 1-4 are equivalent to the numbering of the outriggers
-
Connectors’ equivalent limit switches are: 1 = S21, 2 = S22, 3 = S23, 4 = S24.
-
When the outriggers are off the ground or in transport position indicator light A should be lit
next to connectors 1-4.
-
Similarly when outriggers are set to the ground indicator light B should be lit. If there is a
malfunction the wrong light will be lit or possibly none of the lights light up. Check the function
of the splitter box during monthly inspection.
ATTENTION!
If the set up control system doesn’t work correctly, it is not allowed to
use this access platform, and the failure/defect must be repaired before starting
operation.
