10.EMERGENCY DEVICE
The following information concerning the emergency devices is provided to help
understand the behaviour of the machine and the possible work sequences; mo‐
reover, the devices can thus be identified more clearly and quicker action can be
taken if emergencies occur.
It is important that before starting any operation the operator checks the per‐
fect working order of the emergency devices.
10.1.EMERGENCY STOP BUTTON
Fig. 61 Emergency stop button ground
Allows immediate shut‐down of all machine functions in emergency conditions.
The machine is provided with two emergency stop devices: the first is located on
the carriage just above the turntable, the second on the remote control. Once the
device has been activated, the button must be turned and released to allow the
machine to operate again. Selection of the emergency stop is indicated on the re‐
mote control display ʺDisplay (p. 53)ʺ.
It is strongly recommended to comply with the rule whereby the platform
must not be operated without personnel available on the ground. Indeed, ac‐
cidental operation (e.g. due to a falling branch) or voluntary operation of the
emergency button by unauthorised persons on the ground would put the oc‐
cupants of the basket in the unpleasant situation of not being able to perform
any movements, except descent using the emergency descent devices.
