Prior to Use
4.1.1 Let the hydraulic pump stand for one hour, to allow the oil to settle before purging the system.
notE: Failure to allow sufficient time for the oil to settle could result in air remaining in the oil. Should the pump fail to purge completely
at the first attempt, a second purge will be required.
4.1.2 Purge the hydraulic system by depressing the release foot pedal (39) and pumping the lift foot pedal (36) fifteen to twenty times.
4.1.3 Test the lift unladen by moving the safety handle (07) to the right and raising the lift to full height.
4.1.4 Move the safety handle to the left (in the depression) and lower the lift by depressing the release foot pedal (39) slowly, to control the
rate of descent.
4.2
operation (refer to the Parts Diagram)
WarninG! Ensure that you read, understand and apply the Section 1 Safety Instructions.
WarninG! Do not overload the Mini Tractor lift. The maximum load is 680kg.
4.2.1 Position the lift in a suitable location, preferably on a concrete surface.
4.2.2 Turn the locking plate base (24) down to ensure that lift is level and stable on the surface.
4.2.3 Wheel the mini tractor up the leading plate and on to the lift platform.
WarninG! The mini tractor must be fully supported by the lift platform (01) prior to lifting. Do not put the rear wheel of the mini tractor
on the leading plate (03) and Do not use the leading plate to support the weight of the mini tractor when lifting. The leading plate (03)
is only used to assist the operator in wheeling the mini tractor on the the platform when the lift is at its lowest position.
4.2.4 Secure the mini tractor securely to the lift platform.
notE: Before raising the lift, move the safety handle (07) to the right hand side.
4.2.5 When the platform has been raised to the working height, either turn off the valve or stop pumping the lift foot pedal.
notE: Ensure the safety handle (07) is to the right and the lock plate assembly (20) is locked in a corresponding pair of safety latches
(23) to prevent accidental lowering.
4.2.6 When work in completed, remove all tools from underneath the lift before lowering.
4.2.7 Move the safety handle to to the left hand side (in the depression) and lower the lift by slowly depressing the release foot pedal (39) to
gently lower the mini tractor.
notE: Lower the mini tractor slowly, in a controlled fashion. Never allow the mini tractor to lower rapidly.
4.2.8 When the lift is fully lowered, unsecure the mini tractor and remove it from the lift.
5. maintEnancE
IMPORTANT: Only fully qualified personnel should attempt maintenance or repair on the mini tractor lift.
Do not use the lift if it is believed to have been subjected to abnormal shock or load. Inspect the lift and take appropriate action.
5.1
When the lift is not in use, it must be stored in the lowest position in a dry location to minimise ram and piston corrosion.
5.2
Keep the lift clean and wipe off any oil or grease with a clean rag. Lubricate all moving parts.
5.3
Periodically check the ram and piston for signs of corrosion. Clean exposed areas with a clean oil cloth.
5.4
On each occasion before use, check all parts of the lift. If any part is damaged or suspect, remove the lift from service and take the
necessary action to repair the faulty part or parts.
5.5
Purge the hydraulic system to eliminate any air from the system if lift efficiency drops in the course of carrying out the procedures
outlined at Section 4.1.
