SELF-PROPELLED TELESCOPIC PLATFORM
6 GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Read through this owner’s manual carefully before commissioning the Access Platform.
The Access Platform shall never be operated by an operator who is not familiar with the
operating and safety instructions. Store the owner’s manual in the equipment case.
ALWAYS keep the manual with the Access Platform.
2. The operator must be at least 18 years of age and have reasonable operating
experience of Access Platforms. In practice, the owner/holder of the Access Platform must
make sure that each operator is trained.
3. Nostolift XS 240 is fitted with the following fail-safe safety limit switches:
- support position of outriggers
- ground contact of outriggers
- electric safety limit of maximum permitted lifting radius for raising function, telescope, jib,
and electric backup limit switch for lifting radius
- electric safety limit for excess platform load
- safety limit for the transport position
4. The emergency lowering system consists of an electric pump located in front of the
hydraulic oil tank and of the controls for the boom on the turntable and on the platform. For
detailed instructions, refer to chapter "Use of emergency lowering system" in this manual.
5. Avoid rising near live electrical conductors. The minimum safe distance to cables with
different voltage is shown on a sticker on the platform.
6. Always use a yellow flashing warning light when working on streets with busy traffic.
The working zone shall be fenced to avoid risks. Also observe the relevant traffic
regulations concerning the working site.
7. When driving the Access Platform, the boom shall always be supported in the transport
position.
8. A maximum of two (2) persons with tools and supplies are allowed on the platform at
the same time, however, so that the total load does not exceed 230 kg.
9. Only use the Access Platform with the outriggers well supported. Use extra plates under
the outriggers, if needed. Make sure that an outrigger does not slip on the surface of the
extra plate and that the extra plate withstands the weight of the outrigger. On icy surface,
attach calks or bolts to the outrigger plates. The sole plates have been provided with holes
for calks. For the tightness of different soil types, refer to the Soil tightness table under
chapter 15. Remember that even asphalt may yield!
10. When operating the Access Platform, observe the adverse impact of wind, rain,
temperature, thunder, bad visibility and accumulated snow and ice.
11. Do not take extra load while lifting. RISK OF TIPPING OVER!
