Battery check
Inspection of the battery (4) liquid level and terminals. In order to secure the activation process
and safe operation, the battery must be inspected regularly. The battery liquid levels are checked
by loosening the caps. Also inspect the battery terminals and clean them when necessary.
Functioning of set up system
Check set-up control before operating the access platform. If the red signal lights do not light up,
briefly, raise the outriggers’ control valve levers. If all the red lights light up and the green light
does not, then the set-up control will function appropriately.
Inspection of the water level
Correct position of the water level (on top of the control valve box at ground level) in relation to
the upper surface of the slewing ring must be checked in accordance with the maintenance
schedule, or if there is reason to believe that the position of the water level has changed.
Make sure that the booms are in the transport position and put a water level on the slewing ring.
Compare the position of this water level to the position of the water level on the control valve
box. If the positions are different, adjust the water level on the valve box with the adjustment
screws so that both levels are in the same position. Perform the adjustment both lengthwise and
sideways.
NOTE! Clean the battery before loosening the caps to prevent dirt from entering
the battery cells.
NOTE! If the set-up control does not function as described above, contact the
maintenance service and do not use the access platform before the flaw has been
rectified.
