7. MAINTENANCE
 Always carry out maintenance operations when the machine is still and after having removed the key
from the control panel with the platform in rest position.
 The maintenance operations described below refer to a machine with ordinary working use. In case of
difficult conditions of use (extreme temperatures, corrosive environments, etc.) or following long
machine inactivity, it will be necessary to contact the AIRO assistance service to change the
intervention schedule.

Repairs and maintenance operations are to be carried out by trained and authorised personnel only. All
maintenance operations should be carried out in compliance with the current work safety regulations
(work places, personal protection equipment, etc...).

Carry out only the maintenance and adjustment operations described in this user manual. In
emergency situations (e.g. breakdown, wheels replacement) contact Our Technical Support.

During interventions, check that the machine is completely locked. Before carrying out maintenance
operations inside the lifting structure, check that this is off-line in order to avoid accidental lowering of
the booms.
 Remove the battery cables and provide batteries with a suitable protection during welding operations.
 Carry out maintenance operations on the heat motor only when it is not running and sufficiently cool
(except for those operations, such as oil change, which must be performed when the motor is hot).
Risk of burns in contact with hot parts.
 Do not use petrol or other flammable materials to clean the heat motor.
 For maintenance operations on the heat motor, read the manufacturer's manual of the motor supplied
on machine purchase.

In case of replacement, use original spare parts only or spare parts approved by the manufacturer.

Disconnect the 230V AC and/or 380V AC sockets, if any.

The lubricants, hydraulic oils, electrolytes and all detergent products should be handled with care and
disposed of in safety according to the current regulations. A prolonged contact with the skin may
cause irritations and dermatosis; wash with water and soap and rinse thoroughly. Contact with eyes,
especially with electrolytes, is also dangerous; rinse with water thoroughly and call the doctor.
WARNING!
NEVER MODIFY OR TAMPER WITH MACHINE PARTS TO IMPROVE THE MACHINE PERFORMANCE AS
THIS MAY AFFECT ITS SAFE OPERATION.
