nifty Heightrider HR21 Operating/Safety Instructions Manual page 41

9) On completion of an extended period of road transport, the machine might need additional
inspection to identify any transit degradation, which could render the machine unsafe. Perform
a P.D.I. inspection on the unit before it enters service. Record any faults found and rectify them
immediately.
10) If left un-attended for an extended period, it is likely that the hydraulic cage levelling will become
un-pressurised. Normal operation is then lost, with a noticeable delay in the forwards or
backwards motion as the booms move. To restore normal function, the cage needs to be fully
levelled forwards and backwards, using the cage-levelling lever whilst not standing in the cage
(i.e. with the operator standing adjacent to the cage side whilst simultaneously operating the
lever and green button to move the cage). Take care not to become trapped between the moving
cage and a fixed object, and ensure those around you are clear of the moving cage. When the
system has been charged in both directions, the cage levelling function should be restored. If
the system operates but is 'jerky' in either direction, this indicates air in the system. Repeat the
procedure as described above until the movements are smooth and un-interrupted. If in doubt,
contact our Service Department for further advice.
Niftylift Limited is not liable for any third party damage caused during transport. Careful attention to
correct procedures will prevent many of the small snags that can happen in transit. Re-work is both
expensive and time consuming.
