Operating instructions• DINO 135T • 150T • 180T 5.5. IN CASE OF EMERGENCY 5.5.1. When at risk of losing the stability Reduced stability can be caused by a fault in the lift, the wind or other lateral force, collapse of the standing base or negligence in providing sufficient support. In most cases one sign of reduced stability is the inclination of the lift.
Note! The emergency descent system can also be used for raising the support outriggers to the transport position Always check the condition of the battery for the emergency descent system before putting the lift into operation. (See point “Operation of the safety devices”) Setup of the emergency descent system •...
