OPERATION
TRANSPORTING
The UniLift must only be transported by a vehicle weighing at least 3000 lbs. Always connect the lights and safety chains, and
use safe towing practices. For maximum safety, limit the towing speed to 45 mph (72 km/h) or less.
The booms must be stored in the boom cradles when the trailer is in motion. A tie down strap is provided for travel and will
prevent excessive wear due to vibration and oscillation. Also, the bucket should be hinged up, pinned, and locked into position.
PARKING
Park the trailer on firm, level ground.
Operating the lift on a steep slope can cause the trailer to become unstable and tip over. Additionally, excessive loads are induced
in the rotation system. If it is necessary to work on a slight incline, it is recommended that the outriggers be set to position the
trailer in a level position.
DO NOT OPERATE THE LIFT ON A SLOPE EXCEEDING 5°
.
Leveling Safety Switch Option
- An optional leveling safety switch monitors the tilt of the trailer. When the green "Trailer Level"
lamp is lit, the unit is within the 5° range. If the tilt of the unit exceeds 5°, the green lamp goes off and allows operation of the
"lower" controls only.
