SELF-PROPELLED TELESCOPIC PLATFORM

CHECKING THE SAFETY LIMITS OF OUTRIGGERS
- Check the functioning of the outrigger safety limits by trying to move the boom while the
outriggers are up. If the boom moves, stop the movements and ascertain the fault.
- Place the outriggers in the support position (wheels are off the ground). In this position,
the boom can be operated. The outriggers have ground and position sensors, which is
why a force of at least 6 kg must be exerted on the outriggers. The outriggers must be
turned from the transport position at least 75° towards the ground because of the
functioning of the positions sensors.
The light indicator on the control panel of the platform indicates that the Access Platform is
correctly supported (±0.5 – 1º) when all four lights are lit.

CHECKING THE GROUND SENSOR ALARM
When the boom is lifted off the transport support, the transport support limit switch
overrides the points of the limits switches of ground sensors allowing the use of the boom
even if the support of some outrigger is relieved. In this case, there should be a sound
alarm on the platform.
Test the alarm as follows:
1. Set the Access Platform in the support position with the wheels approx. 100 mm off the
ground.
2. Lift the boom approx. 100 mm from the transport support.
3. You can turn off the combustion engine. Leave the ignition key in the ON position
(power on).
4. Place a jack or a hoist at each outrigger, see figure 17. Place for instance a board (A)
between the jack and chassis. Pump the chassis up with the jack so much that the sole of
the outrigger comes slightly off the ground, in which case the alarm sound should be
heard. The alarm sound stops when the outrigger is lowered back on the ground.
5. Inspect all outriggers in the same manner.
If the alarm of some outrigger or all outriggers does not function, the Access Platform must
not be used before repairing the fault.
If, when the sole of one outrigger or all outriggers is off the ground and power is switched
on and the pedal is pressed, there is a sound alarm, it does not prevent the use of the
Access Platform.
