POP-UP PUSH 8 ECO
Operator’s Safety and Maintenance Handbook ( rev.0.0.1.0210)
Section 2
SPECIFICATION
Operating site
Select a site for the machine from which the platform will be able to reach the
required work area. A visual inspection of the operating site should be made before
setting up the machine. Particular attention should be given to the following items:
1. Ground conditions
Ensure that the ground on which the
POP-UP PUSH 8 ECO
is to operate is capa-
ble of supporting the weight of the machine (including the weight of the operator
plus tools and materials). Be aware of floors or coverings (e.g. manhole covers)
that may not withstand point loadings exerted by the castor wheels.
An interlock system ensures that the stabiliser beams and legs are fully deployed
before the work platform can be raised. It is essential that each of the four stabiliser
feet are located on firm, solid ground. The
POP-UP PUSH 8 ECO
auto brake kit
enables the removal of stabilisers for use in 0m/sec wind conditions.
2. Ground flatness
The
POP-UP PUSH 8 ECO
must only be operated on flat (0º chassis inclination)
and level surfaces. The allowable chassis inclination is indicated when the spirit
level bubble is within the marked limits. All castor wheels must be in full contact
with the ground.
In indoor exposed wind speeds up to 12.5m/sec the
POP-UP PUSH 8 ECO
can be
used with a stabiliser pack.
3. Obstructions
When manoeuvring, raising and lowering, ensure that there are no obstructions or
persons that may be struck by the platform.
Noise and vibration
Noise levels emitted from this machine do not exceed 70 dB(A). Hand and arm
vibration experienced on this machine does not exceed 0.5 m/s
