SAFETY RULES
AWarning
All personnel shall carefully read, understand and follow all safety rules and operating instructions
before operating or performing maintenance on any UpRight aerial work platform.
Electrocution Hazard Tip Over Hazard Collision Hazard Fall Hazard
THIS MACHINE IS NOT INSULATED!
NEVER elevate the platform
or drive the machine while elevated unless the machine is on a firm, level surface
NEVER position the platform without first checking for overhead obstructions or other hazards.
NEVER climb, stand, or sit on platform guardrails or midrail.
USE OF THE AERIAL WORK PLATFORM: This aerial work platform is intended to lift persons and his tools as well as the material used for the job. It is designed for repair and assembly jobs and assignments at overhead workplaces (ceilings, cranes, roof structures, buildings etc.). Uses or alterations to the aerial work platform must be approved by UpRight.
THIS AERIAL WORK PLATFORM IS NOT INSULATED! For this reason it is imperative to keep a safe distance from live parts of electrical equipment!
Exceeding the specied permissible maximum load is prohibited! See “Platform Capacity” on page 5 for details. The use and operation of the aerial work platform as a lifting tool or a crane is prohibited!
NEVER exceed the manual force allowed for this machine. See “Manual Force” on page 5 for details. DISTRIBUTE all platform loads evenly on the platform. NEVER operate the machine without rst surveying the work area for surface hazards such as holes, drop-offs, bumps, curbs,
or debris; and avoiding them.
OPERATE machine only on surfaces capable of supporting wheel loads. NEVER operate the machine when wind speeds exceed this machine’s wind rating. See “Beaufort Scale” on page 5 for details.
Do not operate the aerial platform in windy or gusty conditions. Do not add anything to the aerial platform that will increase the wind loading such as billboards, banners, flags, etc.
IN CASE OF EMERGENCY push EMERGENCY STOP switch to deactivate all powered functions. IF ALARM SOUNDS while platform is elevated, STOP, carefully lower platform. Move machine to a rm, level surface.
Climbing up the railing of the platform, standing on or stepping from the platform onto buildings, steel or prefab concrete structures, etc., is prohibited!
Dismantling the entry gate or other railing components is prohibited! Always make certain that the entry gate is closed! It is prohibited to keep the entry gate in an open position when the platform is raised! To extend the height or the range by placing of ladders, scaffolds or similar devices on the platform is prohibited!
NEVER perform service on machine while platform is elevated without blocking elevating assembly. INSPECT the machine thoroughly for cracked welds, loose or missing hardware, hydraulic leaks, loose wire connections, and
damaged cables or hoses before using.
VERIFY that all labels are in place and legible before using. NEVER use a machine that is damaged, not functioning properly, or has damaged or missing labels.
To bypass any safety equipment is prohibited and presents a danger for the persons on the aerial work platform and in its working range.
NEVER charge batteries near sparks or open ame. Charging batteries emit explosive hydrogen gas. Modications to the aerial work platform are prohibited or permissible only at the approval by UpRight.
AFTER USE, secure the work platform from unauthorized use by turning the keyswitch off and removing key.
The driving of MEWP’s on the public highway is subject to national trafc regulations.
Certain inherent risks remain in the operation of this machine despite utilizing proper design practices and safeguarding. Harness attachment points are provided in the platform and the manufacturer recommends the usage of a fall restraint
harness, especially where required by national safety regulations. Care must be taken to ensure that the machines meets the requirements of stability during use, transportation, assembly,
dismantling when out of service, testing, or foreseeable breakdowns. In the event of an accident or breakdown see “Emergency Lowering” on page 13, do not operate the aerial platform if it is
damaged or not functioning properly. Qualied maintenance personnel must correct the problem before putting the aerial
platform back into service.

Introduction

Introduction
This manual covers the SB85J Fixed Axle Aerial Work Platform.
This manual must be stored on the machine at all times.
Read, Understand and follow all safety rules and op­erating instructions before attempting to operate the machine.
Component Identication
Fuel Tank
Upper Controls
When contacting UpRight for service or parts information, be sure to include the MODEL and SERIAL NUMBERS from the equipment nameplate. Should the nameplate be missing, the SERIAL NUMBER is also stamped at the rear of the chassis.

Special Limitations

Special Limitations
Travel with the platform raised is limited to creep speed range. Elevating the platform is limited to firm, level surfaces only.
ADanger
The elevating function shall ONLY be used when the work platform is level and on a firm surface.
The work platform is NOT intended to be driven over uneven, rough, or soft terrain.

Platform Capacity

Two people and tools may occupy the platform. The maxi­mum platform capacity for the aerial platform is stated in the “Specifications” on page 21.
ADanger
DO NOT exceed the maximum platform capacity or the platform occupancy limits for this machine.

Manual Force

Manual force is the force applied by the occupants to objects such as walls or other structures outside the work platform.
The maximum allowable manual force is limited to 200N (45 lbs) of force per occupant, with a maximum of 400 N (90 lbs) for two occupants.
The system will remain in error mode until the excess load is removed from the platform and the emergency stop button or start switch is cycled off and back on, resetting the system. At that time, the machine functions are operational.
ACaution
The emergency power system is for emergency low­ering and stowing only. The length of time the pump can be operated depends on the capacity of the bat­tery. Do not use this system for normal operation.
If the platform overload sensing system is tripped while operating the machine or if the system is in error mode and can not be reset, the emergency power system may still be used for emergency machine operation from either the lower or upper controls.
ADanger
The aerial platform can tip over if it becomes unstable. Death or serious injury will result from a tip-over ac­cident. Do not exceed the capacity values indicated on the platform rating placard.
The overload sensing system is not active when the machine is being driven with the booms in the stowed position. This allows the machine to be driven without the system sensing an overload due to rough ground conditions.
ADanger
DO NOT exceed the maximum amount of manual force for this machine.

Platform Overload Sensing System

All functions are stopped from the upper and lower con­trols, when the platform overload limit is exceeded. The horn will sound intermittently and the platform overload light will blink until the excess load is removed from the platform. At that time, the machine functions are again
operational.
If the platform becomes significantly overloaded, or if an upward force on the platform exceeds approximately 2225 N (500 lb), the system will enter into error mode, stopping all functions from the upper and lower controls. The horn will then sound constantly and the overload light will stay illuminated at the upper and lower controls.

WIND SPEED
Figure 1 – Beaufort Scale
To eliminate repeated tripping of the system during ma­chine operation, there is a five second delay in machine functions following:
starting the engine.
•
placing the drive/boom selector switch in the boom
• position when the main boom is below horizontal and fully retracted.
removing excess load from the platform.
•
Beaufort Scale
Never operate the machine when wind speeds exceed
12.5 m/s (28mph) [Beaufort scale 6]. Refer to Figure 1.
GROUND CONDITIONS
Shrubs with leaves start swaying. Wave crests are apparent in ponds or swamps.
Tree branches move. Power lines whistle. It is difcult to open an
umbrella.
