Emergency Lowering - Upright LX Serie Betriebsanleitung

Raising and Lowering the Platform
1. Position the drive/lift switch to LIFT. Position
the outrigger on/off switch to OFF.
2. While holding the control lever so the interlock
lever is depressed, push the control lever
slowly to UP to raise the platform. Pushing the
control lever farther increases the lift speed.
3. When the work task is completed, position the
drive/lift switch to LIFT and lower the plat-
form by pulling back on the control lever until
the platform is fully lowered.
Travel with Work Platform Elevated
Travel with platform elevated ONLY on firm and
level surfaces with outriggers fully retracted.
Note: The work platform will travel at reduced
speed when in the elevated position, and then
only when the front axle is parallel with the
rear axle, and (if so equipped) all four
outriggers are fully retracted. Drive is disabled
above 8m (26ft).
1. Check that the route is clear of persons, ob-
structions, holes and drop-offs, is level and
capable of supporting the wheel loads.
2. Check clearances above, below and to the
sides of platform.
3. Position the drive/lift switch to the DRIVE
position.
4. Push the control lever to FORWARD or RE-
VERSE for the desired direction of travel.
If the machine quits driving and the tilt alarm
sounds, immediately lower the platform and
move the machine to a level location before re-
elevating the platform.
