Page 4: Disclaimer
Equiptec AHP units are designed to make working at height as safe and easy as possible. However, that does not mitigate the fact that working at height still carries the risk of a fall, no matter how small this may seem. Equiptec strongly... -

Page 7: G20 Use
Safety Requirements Positioning the G20 4. The standard issue caster wheels are not designed to roll over obstacles. If the surface of the area the G20 is to be moved across is soft, has larger stones, objects or debris in the G20’s path, or for any reason the G20 cannot be moved by manual pushing/pulling, it is recommended to move the G20 with a forklift using the forklift pockets provided. -

Safety Requirements G20 Use (see also ‘Operation’) 5. In its standard configuration, the G20 deck has 3 access gates to facilitate access to/from a work surface if required. These gates must remain shut except when walking through them. Do not use these gates if there is not a flat surface immediately beyond it that has been certified to be of sufficient strength to support your weight and has sufficient, compliant guard railing in... -

While these checks are relatively simple, it is recommended that they are carried out by qualified tradespeople.

Hydraulic Ram needs bleeding (usually causes a soft “spongey” lift that does not go to full height easily). See Instructions in the Hydraulic System section on page 14 8. Check for any excess movement (either fore/aft or lateral) of the deck when fully elevated. Contact Equiptec for advice if any issues come to light. -
