INTRODUCTION

The Power Tower Pecolift is a simple, safe and efficient alternative 
to step-ladders, platform/podium steps and small scaffold towers. 
Pecolift is the first non-powered, powered access platform. It does not 
require batteries (or charging) or connection to an electricity supply. It 
works by a unique, patented stored power mechanism which enables 
the platform to be elevated with very little effort by the operator.

Pecolift is designed for working internally on flat, level surfaces, 
and as it has no batteries, electric motor, electrics or hydraulics it is 
very ecologically friendly. It is ideally suited to working in a very wide 
range of applications from the very ‘clean’ environments of
hospitals, food and drinks production facilities, pharmaceuticals and 
retail, to facilities maintenance, shop-fitting and construction.

The Pecolift is suitable for any application provided it is used within 
its specified operating parameters.  If used for applications such as 
sand blasting, welding, paint spraying or with any other hazardous 
materials, measures must be taken to ensure the Pecolift does not 
become damaged in any way which may impair safety, or reliability.  
Additional protection for the operator may be required in some cases, 
which is the responsibility of the operator and/or the operator’s 
employer.

The purpose of this manual is to provide essential basic information 
required to operate and maintain the Pecolift.
