ISUAL

NOTE:

Carefully read, understand and follow all safety rules, labels, and operating instructions; then perform the

following steps each day before use.

Perform a complete visual inspection of the entire unit prior to operating. Check the following areas for discrepancies:

1. Open the covers and check hydraulic components and hoses for damage or leaks.

2. Check electrical components and wiring for damage or loose connections.

3. Inspect the chassis, axles, hubs, and steering linkage for damage, deformation, buckled paint, loose or missing hardware, and cracked welds.

4. Air-filled tires: check for damage, punctures, and inflation; tire pressure must be 5.5 bar (

5. Check all hoses and cables for wear.

6. Inspect the elevating assembly for damage, deformation, buckled paint, loose or missing hardware, and cracked welds.

7. Inspect the platform and guardrails for damage, deformation, buckled paint, loose or missing hardware, and cracked welds. Ensure that the gate operates freely and latches securely.

8. Check the hydraulic fluid level with the platform fully lowered.

9. Check the battery fluid level.

10. Check the fuel level; add fuel if necessary.

NOTE:

When using propane, use clean, water free liquid petroleum gas, preferably from a bulk storage tank.

WARNING

If you smell propane, close the supply valve on the tanks immediately until you have located and corrected the leak.

12. Ensure that the radiator is cold; check coolant level. Add if necessary.

WARNING

NEVER remove the cap from a hot radiator. Hot coolant can cause severe burns.

13. Retract the locking pins.

• The locking pins prevent turret rotation during transport and loading or unloading from a truck or trailer. There are two pins; one on each side, at the base of the turret, at the front of the machine.

a. Lift the locking pin with the pin stop rod. b. insert the snap pin into the bottom hole.

YSTEM

1. Move the machine to a firm level surface with room to fully elevate and extend the platform.

2. Before performing the following tests, check the area around the machine and overhead for obstructions, holes, drop-offs, and debris.

3. Ensure that the locking pins are retracted (refer to Figure 4 on page 5).

CAUTION

Attempting to rotate the turret with locking pins engaged may cause damage to the machine.

4. Turn the chassis key switch to the left (CHASSIS).

8. Push in the Platform Emergency Stop button; the engine should stop. Return the Platform Emergency Stop button to the ON position, and start the engine.

9. Make sure that the Function Speed Control (on the platform controls) is not at zero.

• Operate each function switch on the lower control panel to raise/lower, extend/retract, rotate left/right, each section of the elevating assembly, and observe the operation of the machine.

• All functions should operate through full cycle smoothly.

10. Stop the engine.

11. Turn chassis key switch to the right (PLATFORM).

12. Mount the platform, lower the bar, and attach an approved fall restraint to the designated platform anchorage point. Attach only one fall restraint to each point.

13. Start the engine.

14. Without depressing the foot switch, move the Drive Control handle; the machine should not function.

15. Depress the foot switch and move the Drive Control handle forward and reverse. Observe that the proportional functions operate smoothly, and that the brakes apply quickly after the control is released.

16. While depressing the foot switch, operate the steer switch to left and right. Observe that the steering wheels turn properly.

17. While depressing the foot switch, turn the Function Speed Control knob to the desired setting, and operate the boom controls.

• Observe that the boom operates smoothly, and that the upper boom, jib, turret rotation, platform level, riser, and boom extend operate proportionally in conjunction with the Function Speed Control knob.

• Observe that the platform maintains level when the boom is elevated.

Operation

Before operating the work platform ensure that:

• Pre-operation and safety inspection has been completed, and any discrepancies have been corrected.

• The operator has been thoroughly trained on the operation of the machine.

• The work area is clear of all obstructions, holes, drop-offs, or persons in the route of travel.

• The surface is capable of supporting wheel loads.

Figure 5:

WARNING

Always wear an approved fall restraint properly attached to the designated platform anchorage point when driving or elevating the machine. Attach only one fall restraint to each anchorage point.

6. Depress the foot switch and move the drive control handle forward to travel forward and reverse to travel in the reverse direction.

NOTE:

When the boom is rotated to the front of the chassis (steering wheels aft), directions of travel and steering will be reversed. Observe the color-coded arrows on the control panel near the drive control handle and on the chassis. They will indicate the direction of travel when the drive control handle is moved.

Operation

TEERING

1. Depress the foot switch.

2. Push the steering rocker switch to the left to turn left.

3. Push the steering rocker switch to the right to turn right.

NOTE:

Steering is not self-centering. Wheels must be returned to the straight ahead position by operating the steering

switch.

NOTE:

OSITIONING

Positioning the platform as close as possible to the work area requires some planning. First, you must survey the work site to find a suitable place to park the machine. This must be a firm, level area as close as possible to the work area. Take into consideration all obstructions on the ground and overhead, and avoid them.

Once you have moved the machine to a firm, level surface as near as possible to the work area, follow the instructions on the following pages to position the platform as close to the work area as possible.

Always, before operating any function, check the area around and overhead for any obstructions or electrical conductors.

THE

LATFORM

WARNING

NEVER exit the platform while the boom is elevated. Keep both feet on the platform floor at all times.

ULTIFUNCTION

The UpRight AB62 employs the use of multifunction controls. This means that the riser or boom extension will function at full speed while simultaneously operating the upper boom, jib, turret, or rotating the platform.

WARNING

If the tilt alarm sounds, lower and retract the boom, then drive the machine to a firm, level surface before elevating.

OWER

All boom functions will operate at the speed selected by the upper speed control functions.

NOTE:

The Platform Ignition switch must be turned ON in order to operate the lower controls.

1. Turn ON the platform ignition switch.

2. Turn the chassis key switch to the left (chassis).

3. With the engine running, operate the boom control switches to position the platform.

• If slower operation is desired, move the Function Speed (HI/LOW) switch to the low position (see

4. The Hi/Low switch will select between maximum speed and a lower fixed Function Speed, depending on the position of the platform Function Speed control.

OWING

WARNING

NEVER climb down the elevating assembly. If controls do not respond, ask someone on the ground to lower the boom manually.

ACH

1. Ensure that the platform is fully lowered.

2. Park the machine on level ground, preferably under cover

3. Secure against vandals, children or unauthorized operation.

4. Turn the upper key switch to OFF.

5. Turn the lower key switch to the center position (OFF).

6. Remove all keys to prevent unauthorized operation.

Perform the following only when the machine will not operate under its own power and it is necessary to move the machine or when winching onto a trailer for transportation

CAUTION

DO NOT move the machine faster than 5 km/h ( components and void warranty.

Disengaging Drive Hub

WARNING

Never disengage the hubs unless the wheels are properly chocked and the machine is on a level surface.

1. Chock the wheels.

2. Ensure that the platform is fully lowered, and that the turret is rotated so that the platform is to the rear of the machine.

3. Attach a chain or cable of sufficient strength for towing the machine to the front or rear tie down lugs.

4. Refer to Figure 7 and disengage all four drive hubs. Remove the two screws and center cap. Re-install the center cap in the opposite direction.

NOTE:

When hubs are disengaged, the brakes are ineffective. The machine will roll freely.

WARNING

Chock the wheels before disengaging the hubs. The machine may roll.

5. When ready to move the machine, remove the chocks. Tow or winch into position and replace the chocks.

6. Engage all four drive hubs by returning the center caps to their original orientation.
