2. Release the bin carriage, power on the machine and carry out several lift/lower
cycles to ensure the problem has been properly resolved.
3. If the lowering valve still does not operate correctly even after being thoroughly
cleaned, it may need to be replaced
– contact your Simpro agent.
4.3.2.2 Mechanical fault
If the lowering valve is operating correctly (emits a ‘click’ sound when the LOWER button i s
pressed), the problem may be a mechanical fault.
1. Isolate the battery by pressing the EMERGENCY STOP button.
2. Provide support for the carriage and bin with a sling attached to a forklift or crane.
Never place any part of your body beneath the bin unless it is securely supported.
3. Attempt to visually identify the cause of the jamming. The most likely causes are:
a. The mast is bent or damaged.
b. Lack of lubrication.
4. Rectify the problem by straightening, realigning, and/or lubricating the components
as required. If the mast is bent, you may need to contact your agent for support.
5. Release the bin carriage, power on the machine and carry out several lift/lower
cycles to ensure the problem has been properly resolved.
6. If the bin carriage still does not lower, contact your Simpro agent for support.
4.4 Electrical System
The Microstacker operates on either 12VDC or 24VDC electric current provided by an
onboard battery. This current is used to power the control circuits, as well as the series-wound
0.8kW electric motor which drives the hydraulic pump.
The electric motor only runs when both RAISE buttons are pressed; the bin carriage is lowered
by gravity alone. As a rule, one full charge is sufficient to lift at least 40 bins, but this is
dependent on the lifting height and type of battery which is fitted.
4.4.1 AGM battery
The Microstacker SME 12V model is fitted with a single maintenance-free 12V/20Ah AGM
battery, while the PRO 24V model has two such batteries, connected in series to provide
24VDC output. Both models are fitted with an onboard 12V/24V smart charger.
4.4.1.1 AGM battery indicator and hour meter
Some Microstacker models are fitted with a combined battery indicator and hour meter,
mounted onto the body of the machine.
When the indicator is showing one or two bars of charge, the machine should not be
used, and should be recharged as soon as possible.
Attempting to operate the machine with flat battery may trip the master circuit breaker
(see
§4.4.4 ) and can also damage the battery.
