Preparation and Inspection
3.1
UNPACKING
Since the manufacturer has no direct control over the shipping or carriage of any Niftylift it is the
responsibility of the dealer and/or owner and/or hirer to ensure the Niftylift has not been damaged in
transit and a Pre-operational Report has been carried out by a qualified engineer before the aerial
platform is put into service.
A)
Remove all ropes, straps and or chains used to secure the aerial platform during transit.
B)
Ensure any ramp, loading dock or forklift used is capable of supporting or lifting the aerial
platform.
***Carry out the Pre-operational Report before placing machine in service.
3.2
PREPARATION FOR USE
Whilst every effort has been made at the Niftylift factory to ensure your machine arrives in a safe and
operable condition it is necessary to carry out a systematic inspection prior to putting the aerial
platform into service.
THIS IS NOT A REQUEST IT IS MANDATORY
To assist the user in this task you will find enclosed an Inspection Check List (see section 6.3), which
must be filled out upon delivery/receipt of the machine.
Before the user carries out the Inspection Check List he must have read and fully understood all the
contents of the Operating, Safety and Maintenance Manual.
WARNING - DO NOT OPERATE A POTENTIALLY DEFECTIVE OR
MALFUNCTIONING MACHINE. CORRECT AND REPAIR ANY DEFECTS
BEFORE OPERATING YOUR NIFTYLIFT.
