Rought Terrain Scissor Interlock Test; Enable Switch (Lower Controls Only); Rcd/Elcb Outlet (Option); Electrical Power Outlet (Option) - Snorkel S2255RT Operator's Manual

Chapter 4 – Safety Devices
Rough Terrain Scissor Interlock Tests
All Snorkel scissor lifts in the Snorkel SRT, SR & S/RT
series are fi tted with a very important safety feature, a
'Stabiliser/axle/scissor Interlock' system that prevents
the stabilisers being moved while the platform is ele-
vated, and prevents the platform being raised if the rear
axle is oscillated and the stabilisers are not set or the
machine is tilted.
The correct operation of the stabiliser/scissor Interlock
is critical to ensure that the Scissor is operated safely
and with minimum risk.
Detailed instructions on how to carry out the tests to
ensure that these functions are working correctly are
provided at the beginning of the Pre-Operational In-
spection chapter in this manual.

Enable Switch (Lower Controls Only)

The enable switch must be operated in conjunction with
the platform moving function you select. The purpose
of this switch is to prevent the platform from moving if
something or someone accidentally pushes one of the
platform moving controls.

Figure 4.13 – RCD/ELCB AC Outlet
The RCD (Residual Current Device) is located at the
ground and will protect against short circuits to earth.
When there is a short circuit the RCD will shut down
the 230V AC power to the platform outlet. To reset the
outlet disconnect the power tool lead from the platform
box and reset the RCD at the ground, if the problem
18
persists call a trained service technician.

Electrical Power Outlet (Option)

Connect a source of 110 volt AC or 240 volt AC power
to the power-input connector on the right side of the
chassis.
Some machines may have an electrical outlet at the
platform, but no power-input connector on the chassis. In
that case, power is supplied by an optional AC generator.
An external power source is not required.
With the machine running, place the AC generator switch
in the generator position to provide electrical power to
the electrical outlet at the platform and to the outlet on
the end of the generator housing.
Plug an electrical tool into the receptacle at the platform
and at the generator and try to operate the tool to verify
proper operation of the outlet.
The outlet is equipped with a ground fault circuit inter-
rupter (GFCI) or an RCD, depending on the load require-
ments. Use the following procedure to test the GFCI.
1. Push the test button (refer to Figure 7.8).

2. Plug an electrical tool into the outlet and verify the
power is off .
• If the power was off , push the reset button to
restore power.
• If the power was on, repair or replace the re-
ceptacle.

Flashing Light

The fl ashing light alerts people that the S2255RT /
S2755RT is present and that the machine is moving.
The light fl ashes at about one (1) fl ash per second any
time the machine is running. There is no ON/OFF switch
for the fl ashing light, it cannot be turned off while the
S2255RT / S2755RT is running.

Fall Restraint Lanyard Anchor Points

There are three (3) Fall Restraint Anchor points on the
fl oor of the platform on the S2255RT / S2755RT. Two (2)
behind the roll-out deck when retracted, one (1) behind
the roll-out deck when extended.
