ELECTRICITY
- Do not drop metallic items on the battery (between the positive and negative terminal(s)).
- Disconnect the battery or batteries before working on the electrical circuit.
- The control panels on the ground and in the basket and all other electrical control boxes must only be opened by
authorised personnel.
TILT SENSOR
IMPORTANT
Some platforms are fitted with a tilt sensor attached to the turn table (
2-DESCRIPTION: CONTROL PANEL AND SAFETY DEVICES AT GROUND LEVEL);
always carry out an initialisation after dismounting/refitting the tilt sensor. Refer to the platform repair manual.
Some platforms are fitted with a tilt sensor that is integrated in the ground level control panel (
2-DESCRIPTION: CONTROL PANEL AND SAFETY DEVICES AT GROUND
LEVEL); always carry out a calibration of the tilt sensor after dismounting/refitting or loosening/tightening the ground level control panel,
its mounting plates or fixing screws. Refer to the platform repair manual.
WELDING ON THE ACCESS PLATFORM
- Disconnect the battery or batteries before welding on the platform.
- When carrying out electric welding work on the platform, connect the negative cable from the welding equipment
directly to the part being welded, so as to avoid high tension current passing through the alternator or the ring gear.
- If the platform is equipped with electronic controls, disconnect them before starting to weld, to avoid the risk of causing
irreparable damage to electronic components.
IMPORTANT
Welding operations for the purposes of maintenance or repairs must only be carried out by persons authorised by MANITOU.
WASHING THE PLATFORM
- Clean the platform or at least the area concerned before any intervention.
- Remember to close and lock (if applicable) all the platform’s cowlings.
- When cleaning with a high pressure cleaner, avoid air from entering the engine, the piston rod wiper seals, the hinges,
the structural components and the electrical connections, etc.
- If necessary, protect components likely to be damaged, and in particular the electrical components (variable speed drive,
charger) and electrical connections and the injection pump from penetration by water, steam or cleaning products.
- Dry the electrical components.
- Clean the platform of any fuel, oil or grease trace.
- Grease the axles, pins, ring gear, etc.
