any inadvertent movement. The brakes are engaged by pushing down on the lever as shown. Releasing the
brake is simply a reversal of the engaging procedure. Before operating please ensure that both of the manual
rear brakes are engaged.
Engage Release Auto brakes
Auto brakes
On the latest models POP-UP PUSH 8 ECO is fitted with a secondary automatic brake system acting on the
front fixed wheels. POP-UP PUSH 8 ECO does not require stabilisers if these auto brakes are fitted. An auto
brake kit is available to purchase. This system should be checked for functionality before attempting to use the
machine. To check, leave the rear manual brakes ‘OFF’ and elevate the machine approximately 150mm. Hold
the handrail on both sides at the gate end and attempt to push the machine. It should be difficult to push the
machine if the auto brakes are functioning correctly. Please consult the manufacturer if the machine is easily
pushed. Before operating please ensure the manual rear brakes are engaged. An auto brake kit is available for
POP-UP PUSH 8 ECO for the safe removal of stabilisers.
Stabilisers
Deploying the stabilisers
Models of POP-UP PUSH 8 ECO, without auto brakes, are fitted with
four stabilisers, one at each corner. All four stabilisers must be fully
deployed before the platform can be raised, as follows:
1. Pull out the red knob on the stabiliser beam housing
2. Extend the beam until it locks into position
3. Pull out the blue plunger on the stabiliser leg so that the foot
drops to the ground
4. Ensure that the plunger pin engages into the radial slot at the top
of the leg
5. Wind the handle clockwise until it is hand-tight
6. Ensure that the yellow stabiliser indicator lamp is lit
Once the stabilisers are in position, the platform can be raised to the
desired height.
Retracting and stowing the stabilisers
When work is finished on the POP-UP PUSH 8 ECO, the platform
should be lowered into its resting position and the worker should exit
the platform. Only then should the stabilisers be retracted and stowed.
To do so:
1. Turn the handle anti-clockwise to loosen the stabiliser foot
2. Pull out and hold the blue plunger
3. Lift the stabiliser leg until it is in the raised position
4. Release the blue plunger until it is seated in the radial ring around the bottom of the stabiliser leg
5. Pull the red knob on the stabiliser beam outwards
6. Push the beam back into its housing until it locks into the ‘transport’ position

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
position ‘2’ is for charging the machine.
Entering and leaving the work
platform
Always use three points of contact when entering or exiting the platform, using the
handholds provided. For example, use two hands and one foot, as shown below.
Section 4
Use the step provided on the base of the machine.
On entering the platform, ensure that the gate is closed behind you.
Control pendant
The control pendant houses the platform raise and lower controls.
Pressing the enable button and selecting ‘UP’ raises the platform.
Pressing the enable button and selecting ‘DOWN’ lowers the platform.
To avoid crushing and shearing hazards, a delay feature is fitted which
actuates when the platform is lowered to the transport position. The platform
will momentarily stop to enable the operator to look around the machine to
determine whether any persons are adjacent to the scissor mechanism. After
a time delay, the lowering control will be enabled once more to permit the
operator to continue to lower to the transport position.

The plunger valve must be reset to enable the machine to operate correctly. To
reset the valve firstly ensure Valve’B’ has been fully closed. Depress the raise
button on the pendant control and raise the platform until the maintenance stands
Section 4
can be deployed. Once the stands have been deployed simply pull Plunger
‘A’ and turn through 90 degrees. Push the plunger back into the slot as
shown left.
Depress the raise button once again and reset the maintenance stands. The
machine is now able to operate correctly.
Battery charging
A battery condition meter is fitted to the POP-UP PUSH 8 ECO as shown.
To accurately check the battery condition, a load must be applied across
the battery, elevating the machine from ground level will achieve this. Stand
away from the machine with the control pendant and press the UP button
whilst observing the bars on the metre. This metre displays the amount
of charge in the battery. All bars illuminated shows that the battery is fully
charged.
If less than four bars are on the display, the battery requires charging.
The POP-UP PUSH 8 ECO is supplied with a dedicated battery charger,
which is separate to the machine. Do not use any other type of battery
charger to charge your POP-UP PUSH 8 ECO machine.
To charge the battery, follow these steps:
1. Turn the power selector switch to ‘0’ (OFF) position.
2. Connect either the 240V or 110V lead (depending on mains supply) to the
POP-UP PUSH 8 ECO at the point shown.
