Chapter 1 – Introduction
Aerial Platform Features
The aerial platform is a class leader, offering several
features as standard.
Features of the aerial platform include a powered plat-
form rotation and fully proportional hydraulic controls at
both platform and ground level.
The aerial platform also has an independent hydraulically
operated flick-out boom and rotating platform for extra
maneuverability. It guarantees access to the most hard
to reach places, while the 90 degrees platform rotation
provides the precision positioning that is vital for work-
ing in tight spaces.
The aerial platform has a simple boom configuration
that provides maximum safety and control ability
combined with a robust construction to withstand a
demanding working environment
The aerial platform is designed for a two man capacity
(200 kg Safe Working Load). The machine incorporates
a bottom boom with a tie-rod, a short vertical boom and
a top boom with a telescope section.
The hydraulic system design incorporates a failsafe
with built in hydraulic lock valves on all of the rams as
a precaution against hose failure. The aerial platform is
controlled by means of proportional manual controls of
the ‘direct hand’ lever operating type.
Emergency lowering valves are also fitted to allow the
machine to be lowered from the ground or platform
controls.
The machine has four hydraulically operated outriggers
which are fitted with load sensing interlocks to prevent
the booms from being raised without the outriggers
being extended and under load. An interlock prevents
the hydraulic outriggers from being accidentally
retracted while the booms are raised. Warning lights
are also available to show the power supply is on and
each of the outriggers is under load.
