SCRAPPING THE PLATFORM RECYCLING OF MATERIALS METALS..............18 PLASTICS.
The platform’s suitability for us MANITOU has ensured that this platform is suitable for use under the standard operating conditions defined in this operator’s manual, with an overload test coefficient of 1,25 and an operational test coefficient of 1,1, as stipulated in standardised norm EN 280 for MPLPs (Mobile Personnel Lifting Platforms).
IMPORTANT For operation under average climatic conditions, i.e. : between -15 °C and + 35 °C, correct levels of lubricants in all the circuits are checked in production. For operation under more severe climatic conditions, before starting up, it is necessary to drain all the circuits, then ensure correct levels of lubricants using lubricants properly suited to the relevant ambient temperatures.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE OPERATOR PREAMBLE IMPORTANT The risk of accident while using, servicing or repairing your lifting platform can be restricted if you follow the safety instructions and safety measures detailed in these instruction. Failure to respect the safety and operating instructions, or the instructions for repairing or servicing your lifting platform may lead to serious, even fatal accident. - Only the operations and manœuvres described in these operator’s manual must be performed.
- Safety helmets must be worn. - MANITOU recommends a safety harness in the operator’s size be provided when the platform is in use (for the harness attachement in the basket , see chapter 2 - DESCRIPTION, CHECKING AND CONTROL INSTRUMENTS pages).
C - ENVIRONMENT - Comply with site safety regulations. - The platform can be manoeuvred from the ground: ensure that you forbid access. - If you have to use the platform in a dark area or at night, make sure it is equipped with working lights. - The platforms may not be used as cranes or elevators for the permanent transport of people or materials, nor as jacks or supports.
Page 13
IMPORTANT If the wind is in excess of 45Km/h, do not perform any movements liable to endanger the lifting platform’s stability. - To recognise this speed by eye, please refer to the empirical wind evaluation scale below: BEAUFORT scale (wind speed at a height of 10m over flat terrain) Speed Speed Speed...
D - VISIBILITY - Maintain permanently good visibility throughout the route. To increase your visibility, you can move forwards with the pendular arm slightly raised (pay attention to the risk of falls in the basket from knocking into a low doorway, overhead electric wires, travelling cranes, highway bridges, tracks or any obstacle in the area in front of the platform).
F - DRIVING THE PLATFORM SAFETY NOTICE IMPORTANT Operators should be aware of the risks connected with using the platform, notably: - Risk of losing control. - Risk of losing lateral and frontal stability of the platform. The operator must remain in control of the platform. - Do not carry out operations which exceed the capacities of your platform.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR WELDING AND BLOW TORCH WORK ON THE EXTERNAL STRUCTURE IMPORTANT Ensure that there are no hydraulic or electrolyte leaks on the platform. IMPORTANT When welding, work in the opposite direction from the control console to avoid sparks damaging it. Any welding and cutting (blow torch) work from the basket on a building’s metallic structures requires the following precautions to be taken: A - WITH ELECTRIC WELDING EQUIPMENT...
PLATFORM MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS - Ensure the area is sufficiently ventilated before starting the platform. - Wear clothes suitable for the maintenance of the platform, avoid wearing jewellery and loose clothes. Tie and protect your hair, if necessary. - Stop the I.C. engine before conducting any work on the platform, remove the ignition key and disconnect the “Minus” battery terminal.
IMPORTANT Welding operations on the structure for maintenance or repair operations must only be performed by MANITOU-certified personnel. WASHING THE PLATFORM - Clean the platform or at least the area concerned before any intervention.
The following recommendations are intended to prevent the platform from being damaged when it is withdrawn from service for an extended period. For these operations, we recommend the use of a MANITOU protective product, reference 603726. Instructions for using the product are given on the packaging.
BRINGING THE PLATFORM BACK INTO SERVICE - Remove the waterproof adhesive tape from all the holes. - Refit the intake hose. - Reconnect the engine cut-off solenoid. - Refit and reconnect the battery. - Remove the protection from the cylinder rods. - Perform the daily service (see : 3 - MAINTENANCE - Empty and replace the fuel and replace the fuel filter (see : 3 - MAINTENANCE).
SCRAPPING THE PLATFORM MANITOU complies with the regulations issued under the directive 2000/53/CE relating to the end of the life of the platform. This platform does not contain any substance or material forbidden by the directive 2000/53/CE. NOTE: Before scrapping the nacelle, consult your dealer.

USING THE LIFTING PLATFORM BEFORE STARTING THE LIFTING PLATFORM Check the following levels: • Engine oil • Oil in the hydraulic reservoir • Coolant STARTING THE LIFTING PLATFORM Turn the ignition key 1 to notch to make the electrical contact. Press button 2 to start up the IC engine. IMPORTANT Do not operate the starter for more than 30 seconds and run a pre-heating cycle between all failed attempts to start.
Page 67
Work mode : one or more of the lifting platform’s arms are raised and/or the telescope is extended. In this mode, translations are made at slow speed and the safety systems for tilt and overload are active. NB: You must use Ramp speed (full power with the speed restricted) to cross over steep slopes or move over very broken ground.
Page 68
SAFETY SYSTEMS - When the lifting platform is overloaded, the buzzer sounds continuously and all movements are blocked. • Solution : unburden the basket. LOWERING - When the work is complete: retract the telescope and lower the arms to bring the lifting platform back to Transport position. IMPORTANT Pay attention to the people on the ground when you are descending.
Page 69
LOADING / UNLOADING THE LIFTING PLATFORM IMPORTANT Check that the safety instructions relating to the truck bed have been correctly applied before loading the lifting platform and ensure that the transport vehicle’s driver is aware of the lifting platform’s dimensional characteristics and its weight. (see the CHARACTERISTICS section).
RESCUE PROCEDURE This paragraph describes the procedures to follow, the controls to use in the event of a problem (breakdown of the lifting platform or someone trapped in the basket) while the lifting platform is working. When taking over the machine and regularly afterwards, the details of this procedure must be read and fully understood by the operator and everyone whose duties are centred on activities in contact with the machine.
