Page 11: Safety
2.1.7 Before the Niftylift is used and during use the user shall check the area in which it is to be used for possible hazards such as, but not limited to, uneven ground drop-offs, holes, bumps, obstructions, debris, floor and overhead obstructions, high voltage conductors, wind and weather, unauthorised persons and any other possibly hazardous conditions. - Page 12 Operating & Safety Instructions 2.1.9 Never position any part of the Niftylift within 4.0m, (12ft) of any electrical power line, conductor or similar not exceeding 66kV. (Minimum span 125m) Other distances for increased voltages and different spans are given in NZECP 34:1993.
- Page 13 Any problems or malfunctions that affect the safety of operation shall be repaired prior to continued use. 2.1.24 The boom and platform of the Niftylift shall not be used to jack the wheels off the ground. 2.1.25 The Niftylift shall not be used as a crane.

Page 14: Environmental Limitations
All standard Niftylift machines are rated for a wind speed of 12.5 m/s, which equates to 45kph / 28mph or force 6 on the Beaufort scale. No attempt should be made to operate a Niftylift in wind strengths above this limit and if the operator has any doubts over the wind speed he / she should cease operation immediately until it can be established that the wind speed has fallen to a safe level. -
Page 15: Test Report
Operating & Safety Instructions TEST REPORT All Niftylift machine models are subjected to a comprehensive ‘type test’ which duplicates all combinations of safe working load (SWL), overload, windage, inertia and pull force to assess the various safe stability criteria. Self propelled machines are also subjected to kerb and braking tests at the SWL to satisfy additional ‘worse case’... -
Page 16: Preparation And Inspection
Preparation and Inspection UNPACKING Since the manufacturer has no direct control over the shipping or carriage of any Niftylift it is the responsibility of the dealer and/or owner and/or leaser to ensure the Niftylift has not been damaged in transit and a Pre-operational Report has been carried out by a qualified engineer before the aerial platform is put into service. -
Page 17: Pre-Operational Safety Check Schedules
SD210 Series Operating & Safety Instructions PRE-OPERATIONAL SAFETY CHECK SCHEDULES Before use at the beginning of the work shift, the aerial platform shall be given a visual inspection and functional tests including, but not limited to the following. It is recommended that these be performed at regular intervals as indicated on each checklist. - Page 18 SD210 Series Operating & Safety Instructions 3.3.3 MONTHLY SAFETY CHECKS Check the engine oil level (if applicable). Check the wheel nuts (torque 110ft lbs / 150Nm). Check that the bolts holding the wheel motors to the chassis are secure. Check outriggers for condition, security and operation.

4.1.2 CAGE OVERLOAD: - Each Niftylift is fitted with a cage overload sensing device located between the cage bracket and the cage itself. This device is preset at the factory and must only be reset or adjusted by a qualified Niftylift representative. - Page 23 SD210 Series Operating & Safety Instructions With the booms in the stowed position, the operator is allowed to drive the machine and negotiate slopes up to 10° without activating the tilt alarm (Refer to 4.1.3). Because of the restricted visibility over the engine canopy, an electric luffing switch has been provided.

Page 24: Setting Up Procedures
Read and fully comply with all safety precautions and operating instructions in the Operating and Safety manual and the warning decals on the machine. Position Niftylift on firm ground, bearing in mind range of boom movement so that any overhead obstructions or possible hazards such as, but not limited to, power cables, telephone lines, drains, manhole covers, etc. -

Page 31: Driving Controls
When driving with the booms fully stowed, the Niftylift can be driven up and down slopes with an inclination of 24°. However, the tilt alarm operates a sounder and warning lamp on the cage control panel, warning the operator that the machine is operating on a slope greater than or equal to 10º. -
Page 32: Stabilisers
SD210 Series Operating & Safety Instructions STABILISERS Before elevating the booms, the operator must first deploy and set up each of the stabilisers using the switches on the cage console until the base is level. The level of the machine can be checked using the spirit level located on top of the base. -
Page 33: Cage Weigh System
4.7.1 MECHANICAL VERSION The Niftylift range of machines is available fitted with mechanical cage weigh systems. These are configured to sense a vertical cage overload, which when detected will halt the machine movement. No further use of the platform is then permitted until the overload has been removed. This must be done in a responsible manner and not one in which a greater hazard might be induced. - Page 34 SD210 Series Operating & Safety Instructions 4.7.4 CALIBRATION If a closer examination of the system is required, typically for testing and approval, the safe working load should be placed in the cage, carefully weighing the test load to ensure accuracy. The addition of a 5kg weight, to any of the four corners of the cage, should sound the alarm.
- Page 35 If there is evidence of any deformation in any part of the structure, then the advice of a Niftylift Service technician should be sought. Physical damage to the assembly is liable to render the cage weigh system inactive, or to affect the accuracy of the result. Under no circumstance permit a damaged machine to enter service without performing a thorough inspection and calibration of the weigh assembly.
- Page 36 4.7.7 REPLACEMENT If components are replaced, they must be genuine Niftylift parts. The accuracy and function of the cage weigh system relies on the like-for-like application of the component parts. A switch from a similar manufacturer might reverse the contact arrangement and critically affect the function of the mechanism.

Page 37: Transporting, Towing, Craneage, Storage And Setting To Work
• Always ensure the truck or trailer you are loading or towing the Niftylift with can carry it legally. • If loading by crane the use of shackles and an adequately rated spreader beam, with four leg slings around indicated slinging points on base, is MANDATORY. - Page 38 SD210 Series Operating & Safety Instructions 4.8.2 TOWING DO NOT TOW MACHINE WITHOUT FOLLOWING THE TOWING PROCEDURE AS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 5.3.4 OF THIS MANUAL. 4.8.3 CRANEAGE Observe all of the limitations relating to straps and chains stated above under ‘Transporting’.
- Page 39 If in doubt, contact our Service Department for further advice. Niftylift Limited is not liable for any third party damage caused during transport. Careful attention to correct procedures will prevent many of the small snags that can happen in transit. Re-work is both expensive and time consuming.

Page 40: Emergency Controls
SD210 Series Operating & Safety Instructions Emergency Controls GENERAL CHECKING THE OPERATION OF THE EMERGENCY CONTROLS EVERY DAY AND/OR BEFORE EACH SHIFT IS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THE OPERATOR'S DUTIES The operator and all ground personnel must be thoroughly familiar with the location and operation of the EMERGENCY CONTROLS. - Page 41 SD210 Series Operating & Safety Instructions 5.3.1 BOOM OVERRIDE Ensure the Diverter Valve handle is turned to the right (see below). Operate the appropriate function, and using the Booms Hand Pump, manoeuvre the booms as required. If desired, the Cage operator can hold the appropriate lever to manoeuvre the machine, whilst a ground operative provides the motive power using the booms hand pump.
- Page 42 SD210 Series Operating & Safety Instructions 5.3.3 FRONT STEER OVERRIDE Push the CT15 Override fully in and hold, or pull fully out and hold. Now use the Integral Hand Pump to operate the front steer function. The push or pull function of the CT15 Override determines either left or right steer operation.

‘booms’ position when needed’. INCIDENT NOTIFICATION It is a mandatory requirement that any accident or incident involving a Niftylift is reported by telephone directly to Niftylift, regardless of whether any party received injury or property was damaged. Failure to do so may render any warranty on the machine void. -
