RESCUE AND REPAIR OPERATIONS

1
Caution!
Only a competent operator may perform repairs or rescue operations.

4.7.1 - Emergency lowering

This is the case in which the operator on the platform is no longer able to control
the movements, even though the machine is functioning as normal. A competent
operator on the ground may operate the control station at the base-frame with the
main power supply to bring the operator on the platform back down.
Rescue procedure:
• place the key selector from selection of control station to position "ground
control" (no. 1). In this position the controls of the control station at the
platform will be cancelled.
• Continuing to hold the key (on the chassis side), lower the platform using the
switch provided if you need to help the person on the platform.
• To stop an operation, release the key.
NOTE : During rescue and emergency manoeuvres from the ground with the
extension deployed, it is essential to ensure that there are no obsta-
cles under the platform (wall, beam, power line, etc.).
