EMERGENCY LOWERING OPERATION
Never attempt to recover the machine/operator if there is
any possibility the machine is contacting any live
wiring/cabling and is therefore potentially ‘live’.
To lower the platform in the event of the operator being
incapacitated (unable to operate the flywheel handle in the
basket):
1.
Locate emergency lowering tool on the chassis (pic 2),
remove from fixing.
2.
Stand to the side of the machine, attach the ‘hook’ end
of emergency lowering tool to fly-wheel handle knob in
the basket, releasing the handle knob, turn the wheel
anti-clockwise to bring the platform down (pic 1).
3.
Keep clear of the structure as it descends
4.
Lower to a platform height of approximately 500mm or
less to recover the operator safely.
