Transporting
To transport the material lift:
1. Remove the fork retaining pin to remove the load
lifting attachment from the carriage.
2. Turn the winch away from the mast until the carriage
is fully lowered.
Material lifts equipped with stabilizers
A. Push down on the stabilizer lock plates to release
the stabilizers.
B. Raise the stabilizers to the stowed position.
C. Verify that the lock plates are engaged and the sta-
bilizers are locked in the stowed position.
3. Rotate the carriage hold-down bar down.
4. Raise the carriage until it contacts the carriage hold-
down bar.
5. Adjust the loading wheel to the height of the truck or
trailer bed using the Smart-Set adjustment system;
no pin is needed.
6. Lock the rear base casters.
7. Place the material lift against the transport vehicle,
with the loading wheels facing the truck or trailer bed.
8. Tilt the material lift towards the transport vehicle until
the loading wheels touch the truck or trailer bed.
9. Lift the material lift at the base and push it forward to
roll it onto the truck or trailer bed.
Caution
Ratchets, winches, and come-alongs may produce
enough force to damage machine components. Do
not over tighten the straps or chains when securing
the aerial platform to the transport vehicle. Place the
chain or strap over the mast only.
10. Secure the material lift by placing at least one chain
or strap over the mast.
Note
Transport of the material lift does not require the legs to be
placed in the stowed position. To raise the legs, remove
the leg retainer pin and swing the legs into the stowed
position. Insert the leg retainer pin.
Reverse the loading instructions to unload the material lift.
