The noise produced by the scissor lift in the work area at a distance of 7 metres and at

maximum load does not exceed 75 dB(A).
Exposure to the noise over a long period of time may be detrimental to the hearing if hearing

protection is not worn.

Safety instructions during normal use

2.2.2
Only use the scissor lift under the following conditions:

• there is no visible damage to the scissor lift
• all the functions work correctly
• all the safety devices work correctly
• the hydraulic system does not leak
• the hydraulic system contains the correct quantity of oil
Lock the covers of the cabinets on the bottom carriage.

Do not touch the moving or pivoting parts of the scissor lift (e.g. the scissor mechanism or the

steering gear).
Make sure the driving area and the work area are:

• sufficiently flat and able to support the weight of the scissor lift
• adequately lit
• free of obstacles
• free of snow and ice
Make sure the scissor lift cannot touch any fixed or moving obstacles.

Make sure no objects can fall from the platform (e.g. tools).

If tools which may cause a fire are used on the platform, a fire extinguisher must be present

on the platform.
The scissor lift may only be driven when fully extended if it is driven in an enclosed space on a

completely flat surface which is able to support the weight of the scissor lift. The user must be
aware of this. An additional safety requirement is that the scissor lift must be operated by two
people at all times. One person must work on the platform and the other person must remain
on the ground. They can maintain contact with each other using communication equipment. 
In normal situations, the 8-metre stop should work. The key switch is in the '0' position by
default. This means that it is possible to drive the scissor lift when it is extended up to a height
of 8 metres. Position '1' means: it is possible to drive the scissor lift when it is extended to the
maximum height. The maximum speed is 0.5 km/h when the scissor lift is extended above a
height of 4 m. 
The key switch is located on the electrical box.
Only charge the battery of the scissor lift in an area that is well ventilated and where smoking

and naked flame are prohibited.
Important conditions concerning driving up or down inclines in the scissor lift's longitudinal

direction:
• See the technical information in the instruction manual for the maximum incline that the
scissor lift can be driven on.
• The maximum load when driving up an incline is 80 kg (1 person).
• Place the platform in the lowest position.
• Select the slowest speed.
• Do not make any sharp steering movements when driving up an incline.
• Drive up an incline with the non-driven wheels uphill.
