NSTALLATION ON THE WORK SITE AND LIFTING
- The lifting platform has been designed to work on a flat, horizontal surface; it is important to clear the space in which the lifting platform
will be working.
- Bring the lifting platform to the work site.
- If necessary, load the equipment to be carried (stack so as not to inconvenience the operator and prevent anything falling).
- Climb into the lifting platform.
Wearing a safety helmet and a harness is compulsory.
- Press the “Dead Man’s” pedal and start to manoeuvre to position yourself in the work area.
When manoeuvring the lifting platform (lifting,...), look around and above you. Pay particular attention to the electric
cables and any items that may be in the lifting platform’s operating space.
Familiarise yourself with the instruments on the ground maintenance and emergency station and in the basket, described
in the previous pages and in particular the warnings specifying the risks involved in performing certain manoeuvres.

AFETY SYSTEMS
When the platform is overloaded, the red Overload led on the basket console flashes, the audible vibrating alarm sounds, and all
movements are prohibited as a safety measure.
• Solution: Lighten the load.
- When the platform reaches the maximum authorised tilt, the led on the basket console shows red. Also, the buzzer for the platform’s
controls sounds intermittently and any “AGGRAVATING” lifting movements are prohibited as a safety measure.
• Solution : reposition the platform on a more level surface and only make non-aggravating movements.
