THIS MACHINE IS NOT INSULATED.
• NEVER exceed the maximum platform load. See “Specifications” on page 16.
• NEVER operate the machine if all guardrails are not properly in place and secured with all fasteners properly torqued.
• NEVER operate the machine without first surveying the work area for surface hazards such as holes, drop-offs, bumps,
curbs, or debris.
• ALWAYS close and secure the entrance after entering the platform.
• NEVER use ladders or scaffolding on the platform.
• NEVER attach overhanging loads or increase platform size.
• LOOK up, down and around for overhead obstructions and electrical conductors.
• DISTRIBUTE all platform loads evenly on the platform.
• NEVER use damaged equipment. (Contact UpRight for instructions. See toll free phone number on inside back cover.)
• NEVER change operating or safety systems.
• INSPECT the machine thoroughly for cracked welds, loose or missing hardware, hydraulic leaks, damaged cables or
hoses, loose wire connections, and wheel bolts.
• NEVER climb down elevating assembly when the platform is elevated.
• IF ALARM SOUNDS while the platform is elevated, STOP, carefully lower the platform. Move the machine to a firm, level
surface.
• IN CASE OF EMERGENCY push the Emergency Stop Button to cut power to all machine functions.
• NEVER perform service on the machine while the platform is elevated without blocking the elevating assembly.
• NEVER recharge batteries near sparks or open flame; batteries that are being charged emit explosive hydrogen gas.
• NEVER replace any component or part with anything other than original UpRight replacement parts without the manufacturer’s written consent.
• VERIFY that all labels are in place and legible before using.
• NEVER tow the machine. Transport by truck or trailer only.
• AFTER USE, secure the machine against unauthorized use by turning the Key Switch off and removing the key.
NEVER operate or drive with the
platform elevated unless on firm, level
surface.
NEVER position the platform without
first checking for overhead obstructions
or other hazards.
NEVER climb, stand or sit on the
platform guardrails or midrail.

Carefully read, understand and follow all safety rules, operating instructions, labels and National Safety
Instructions/Requirements. Perform the following steps each day before use.
1. Open modules and inspect for damage, fluid leaks or missing parts.
2. Check the hydraulic fluid level sight gauge on the hydraulic reservoir with the platform fully lowered. Add
fluid if necessary.
3. Check that fluid level in the batteries is correct (see “Battery Maintenance” on page 12).
4. Check that all guardrails are in place, the slide-out deck extension is secured with the pin, and all fasteners are properly tightened.
5. Check tire pressure: 5,2 bar (75 psi).
6. Carefully inspect the entire machine for damage such as cracked welds or structural members, loose or
missing parts, fluid leaks, damaged cables or hoses, loose connections and tire damage.

• the chassis Emergency Stop Button is in the ON position (pull out).
• the Drive Enable indicator is ON.
•thePlatform/Chassis Switch is on PLATFORM.
NOTE:
If the drive enable indicator is OFF, verify that the platform is fully lowered and (if so equipped) the outriggers
are fully retracted.
2. After mounting the platform, close and latch the gate. Check that the guardrails are in position and
properly assembled, with the fasteners properly torqued.
3. Check that the route is clear of persons, obstructions, holes and drop-offs, and is capable of supporting
the wheel loads.
4. Check clearances above, below and to the sides of the platform.
5. Pull the controller Emergency Stop Button out to the ON position.
6. Turn the Platform Controls Key Switch clockwise to ON.
7. Set the Lift/Drive Switch to DRIVE.

For each outrigger, there is an Outrigger Switch and an outrigger indicator light (refer to Figure 2).
Each Outrigger Switch will raise and lower one outrigger.
Each outrigger indicator light will indicate the position of one outrigger.

1. Make sure that the extension deck is retracted before operating the outriggers.
2. Look around the machine; make sure that there is nothing obstructing the
outriggers, and that the surface beneath them is suitable to support the
weight of the machine.
3. Position the Lift/Outrigger/Drive Switch set to OUTRIGGER.
4. Depress the Interlock Lever on the Control Handle, and operate the Outrigger Switches to extend each outrigger until it is making firm contact with
the supporting surface.
5. While observing the bubble level on the guardrail, extend the outrigger
opposite the position of the bubble until the platform is level. For example: if
the bubble is to the front and left in the orbit, extend the rear right outrigger. Continue to adjust until the
bubble is centered in the small circle indicating that the platform is level.
6. Confirm that all four (4) outriggers are in firm contact with the supporting surface. The outriggers are in

Always wear safety glasses when working with batteries.
Battery fluid is highly corrosive. Thoroughly rinse away any

When night temperatures fall below 18°C (65°F), batteries charged in unheated areas should be charged
as soon after use as possible. Under such conditions a four hour charge cycle once a week in the early
afternoon will improve the state of charge and battery life.
The battery and cables should be inspected regularly for signs of cracks in the case, electrolyte leakage
and corrosion of the terminals. Inspect the cables for worn spots or breaks in the insulation and for broken
cable terminals.

4. Inspect parts for scratches, pits or polishing. Check seal grooves and sealing surfaces. Scratches or pits
deep enough to catch the fingernail are unacceptable; replace the cylinder. Polishing is a sign of uneven
loading. When this occurs, the surface should be checked for roundness. Cylinders not round within

ROUBLESHOOTING
1. Read the nameplate to become familiar with
the motor, especially the rated voltage.
2. Try to turn the shaft by hand. Keep motor
leads separated while doing this. If the shaft
turns freely go to Step 3. If the shaft won't
turn, proceed to Step A.
A. The shaft could be tight for a number of
reasons, this check is to determine if the
tightness is of a temporary nature only.
a. Obtain power to produce the nameplate
voltage. Do not Make a Permanent Con-nection.
b. First touch the motor leads quickly to the
power supply just long enough to observe
if the shaft turns.
c. If it does turn, then hold the motor leads
on the power supply for a longer time. If
the motor sounds normal, go to Step 3..
d. If the motor sounds noisy, it should be
taken apart as described in the disassembly section.
3. If the motor turned freely, connect an ammeter in the circuit as shown in Figure 1-6A.
With rated voltage applied and the shaft running free, the ammeter should read less
than 20% of the nameplate full load current.
If the motor meets the above conditions,
then it can be assumed that the original
problem is external to the motor.
