The purpose of this manual is to provide the user with full information on the use, the safety and the maintenance of the MULTITEL platform, and to facilitate its use so as to obtain the top performance for which it was designed and built. For reasons of safety, all the personnel entrusted with operating the machine, supervising the works for which it is used and servicing it should study this manual carefully.

FOREWORD Thank you for choosing one of our platforms for your work. Our first commitment in manufacturing the products is to ensure safety. We hope that you will pay the same attention while using the platform so as to ensure your own safety and that of other operators.
SAFETY REGULATIONS LEARNING AND AWARENESS Do not use the platform before you know exactly how it works. It should only be used by authorised personnel who have proved themselves capable of doing so safely. Do not overload the cage in excess of the permissible capacity, taking both the personnel and their tools and materials into account.

REGULATIONS FOR USE The aerial platform is a piece of equipment designed and manufactured to let the operator carry out work at a certain height in safety. The max. capacity we have indicated includes people and tools. The vehicle must be positioned on firm ground, with the base positioned in such a way that there is no risk of loosing its horizontal alignment.
18) Load all materials on the ground before beginning lifting movements, making sure that the maximum permissible capacity and number of people is not exceeded. The maximum capacity indicated includes both people and tools. 19) Do not fix hooks, cables or ropes to lift material onto the platform. 20) Do not use the boom of the platform as a crane, do not drag loads.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PLATFORM The platform consists basically of the following : Counter-frame for securing the platform to the main frame members of the chassis of the carrying vehicle ( item 1). Rotation system consisting of an internally toothed large-diameter ball-circulation slew ring, with automatic brake operation and an epicyclic reduction gear (item 2).

USE AND CONTROLS The controls and signalling devices available on the platform are illustrated in this section. A perfect knowledge of these devices is essential for the operator, and it is absolutely necessary for him to be familiar with the controls and the relevant symbols before starting to use the machine. STABILISING OF THE VEHICLE To work in safety, perfect stabilising of the vehicle is essential..
OPERATING PROCEDURE The operator climb directly into the cage or he may lower it to the ground using the emergency controls on the ground control box. On the ground control unit there is a two-position selector switch (G), used to activate the main controls in the cage or the emergency controls from the ground.
To start moving the aerial platform it is necessary to select first the type of movement required by using the appropriate levers, then the control -R- can be activated by pushing the lever gradually to increase and adjust the speed of the movement which has been selected. The movements must be started and terminated gradually, without sudden stops and starts.
HORIZONTAL LEVELLING OF THE CAGE The cage is fitted with a hydraulic circuit for keeping it horizontal. If you need to adjust the horizontal levelling, use lever - P - of the cage controls (see photograph). EMERGENCY LOCKING Each control station (in the cage and on the ground) has a locking push-button - E - U - easily recognised by its red colour and mushroom shape (see photograph).
LIMITING DEVICE With very few exceptions, the boom is fitted with an automatic device which limits its range of action, so as to ensure stability in any operating condition. This device functions automatically, as follows : the telescopic boom is made up of several sections and can only be extended to a given length.
: For the models 180 and 220 ALU remove the carter located behind the turret; for the model 160 ALU open the door of the drawer located under the truck body, to reach the hydraulic components; Turn the hand-wheel of the speed-control valve (2) as far as it will go but without forcing it;...
CLEANING THE FILTERS Top performance, constant efficiency and a long service life of the hydraulic components is ensured by taking proper care of the cleaning operations and using the correct quality of oil. We therefore recommend that you always use AGIP ARNICA 32 hydraulic oil or a compatible equivalent (ISO - L - HV).
TIGHTNESS CHECK The system for securing the machine to the chassis undergoes considerable stress during use, and has to absorb the continuous vibrations of the equipment when the carrying vehicle is moved from one place to another. Periodical checking of the tightness of the bolts holding the slew ring in place and of the counter- frame is therefore recommended.
OPERATIONAL CHECK OF THE CONTROLLED CHECK VALVES ON THE STABILIZERS: · place the vehicle-mounted platform in the working position, with the stabilisers in place; · turn off the engine of the vehicle, leaving the main switch of the control panel on; ·...
ROTATION GEAR BOX Check the level of the oil in the reduction gear every six months. It was originally filled with AGIP ROTRA 80 W/90 oil. The oil should be replaced with the reduction gear warm, taking the opportunity also to wash the guards.
MAINTENANCE PLAN 1) DAILY CHECKS: - carry out the checks listed on page 18 2) WEEKLY CHECKS: - check operation of the control enabling device; - check operation of the outreach limiting device. 3) MONTHLY CHECKS: - make sure that the points indicated in TAB 1 of "Spare parts catalogue" are greased; - make sure that the filters are cleaned;...
MANUAL OF PERIODICAL CHECKS TO BE CARRIED OUT ON PAGLIERO MULTITEL PLATFORMS INTRODUCTION This manual has been drafted in order to help the technical staff responsible for periodically checking the work platforms manufactured by us to carry out their work, also on the basis of their own experience.

CHECK OF COUPLING OF THE WORM SCREW AND WORM GEAR For some types of platforms the movement of the jib and levelling of the cage are carried out by means of a worm reduction unit and worm gear device. For these gear boxes the following must be checked: Wear of the tooth of the worm screw.
