PLATFORM OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
For PLATFORM-fitted lift trucks
Installation of the platform on the lift truck is only possible if the shields “operating the platform” of the lift truck and the platform are identical (see: 2 -
DESCRIPTION: OPERATING THE PLATFORM).
A - AUTHORISATION FOR USE
- Operation of the platform requires further authorisation in addition to that of the lift truck.
B - SUITABILITY OF THE TRUCK FOR USE
- MANITOU has ensured that this lift truck is suitable for use under the standard operating conditions defined in this operator’s manual,
with a STATIC test coefficient of 1.25 and a DYNAMIC test coefficient of 1.1 , as specified in harmonised standard EN 280 for “mobile
elevating work platforms”.
- Before commissioning, the company manager must make sure that the platform is appropriate for the work to be done, and perform
certain tests (in accordance with current legislation).
C - PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING THE PLATFORM
- Wear clothes suited for operating the platform, avoid loose clothes.
- Never operate the platform when hands or feet are wet or soiled with greasy substances.
- Always pay attention when using the platform. Do not listen to the radio or music using headphones or earphones.
- For increased comfort, adopt the correct position at the platform’s operator station.
- The platform’s guard rail exempts the operator from wearing a safety harness under normal operating conditions. As a result, you are
responsible deciding whether to wear a safety harness.
- The controls must not be used for any other than their intended purpose (e.g. getting in and out of the lift truck, coat hanger etc.).
- Safety helmets must be worn.
- The operator must always be in the normal operator’s position. It is prohibited to have arms or legs, or generally any part of the body,
protruding from the basket.
- Ensure that any materials loaded onto the platform (pipes, cables, containers, etc.) cannot fall out. Do not pile these materials to the
point where it is necessary to step over them.
D - USING THE PLATFORM
- However experienced they may be, operators must acquaint themselves with the emplacement and operation of all control instruments
prior to operating the platform.
- Check before operating that the platform has been correctly assembled and locked onto the lift truck.
- Check before operating the platform that the access gate has been properly locked.
- The platform should be operated in an area free of any obstructions or danger when it is lowered to the ground.
- The operator using the platform must be aided on the ground by a person with adequate training.
- You should stay within the limits set out in the platform load chart.
- The lateral stresses are limited pressure (see: 2 - DESCRIPTION: CHARACTERISTICS).
- It is strictly forbidden to hand a load from the platform or the lift truck jib without a specially designed attachment (see: INSTRUCTIONS FOR
HANDLING A LOAD: H - TAKING UP AND LAYING DOWN A SUSPENDED LOAD).
- The platform cannot be used as a crane or a lift for permanently transporting people or materials, nor as jacks or supports.
- The lift truck must not be moved with one (or more) person(s) in the platform.
- It is forbidden to transport people on the platform using the hydraulic controls in the lift truck’s driver’s cab (except in case of rescue).
- The operator must not get in or out of the platform when it is not on ground level (jib retracted and in the down position).
- The platform must not be fitted with attachments that increase the unit’s wind load.
- Do not use ladders or improvised structures in the platform to gain extra height.
- Do not climb onto the sides of the platform to gain extra height.
