SAFETY RULES

NEVER operate the machine

within ten feet of power lines.

THIS MACHINE IS NOT INSU­LATED.

NEVER elevate or drive

elevated on uneven slopes or
soft ground or elevate the plat­form unless the platform is level.

NEVER sit, stand or climb on
guardrail or midrail.

NEVER operate the machine without first surveying the work area for surface hazards such as
holes, drop-offs, bumps and debris before operating machine.

NEVER operate the machine if all guardrails are not properly in place and secured with all
fasteners properly torqued.

SECURE gate across entrance after mounting 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 loads evenly on the platform. See the back cover for maximum platform load.
NEVER use damaged equipment. (Contact UpRight for instructions, see phone numbers on back cover.)
NEVER change operating or safety systems.
INSPECT the machine thoroughly for cracked welds, loose hardware, hydraulic leaks, damaged

control cable, loose wire connections and wheel bolts.

NEVER climb down elevating assembly with the platform elevated.
NEVER perform service on machine while platform is elevated without blocking elevating assembly.
NEVER recharge batteries near sparks or open flame; batteries that are being charged emit

highly explosive hydrogen gas.
AFTER USE secure the work platform against unauthorized use by turning key switch off and

removing key.

Introduction

This manual covers SL26/30 Speed Level Work
Platforms. This manual must be stored on the

machine at all times.

Pre-Operation and Safety

Inspection

Read, understand and follow all safety rules
and operating instructions and then perform the
following steps each day before use.

1. Remove module covers and inspect for dam­age, oil leaks or missing parts.

2. Check the level of the hydraulic oil with the
platform fully lowered. Oil should be visible in
the sight gauge. Add hydraulic oil, if necessary
(see Specifications, back cover).

3. Check that the fluid level in the battery is
correct (see Battery Maintenance, page 7).

4. Carefully inspect the entire work platform for
damage such as cracked welds or structural
members, loose or missing parts, oil leaks,
damaged cables or hoses, loose connections
and tyre damage.

5. Check that all guardrails are securely in place
with all fasteners properly torqued.

6. Pull Chassis Emergency Stop Button out to ON
position.

Engine inspection

1. Check fuel supply.

2. Check engine oil level with dipstick.

3. While the engine is cool check the radiator
coolant level. DO NOT check coolant when the
engine or radiator is hot.

System Function Inspection

STAND CLEAR of the work platform while
performing the following checks.

Before operating the work platform survey
the work area for surface hazards such as
holes, drop-offs, bumps and debris.

Check in ALL directions, including above
the work platform, for obstructions and
electrical conductors.

Protect control console cable from possible
damage while performing checks.

1. Unhook Controller from front guardrail. Firmly
grasp Controller hanger in such a manner that the
Interlock Lever can be depressed, while perform­ing the following checks from the ground.

2. Pull Controller Emergency Stop Button out to
ON position.

3. Turn Controller Key Switch fully clockwise to
start the engine, releasing the key once the
engine starts.

Note: On Diesel Models, if the engine is cold,
depress and hold the glow plug button for 6
seconds prior to starting to engage the glow
plugs.

4. Place Drive/Level/Lift Switch in DRIVE position.

5. With the Speed Range Switch first in HIGH
TORQUE and then in HIGH SPEED actuate the
Interlock Lever and slowly push the Control
Lever to FORWARD then REVERSE positions
to check for speed and directional control. The
farther you push or pull the Control Lever from
center the faster the machine will travel.

6. Push Steering Switch RIGHT then LEFT to
check for steering control.

7. Place Drive/Level/Lift Switch to LEVEL. While
depressing Interlock Lever actuate the Fore/Aft
and Side/Side Switches to verify they function

8. Rehook Controller on front guardrail.

9. Push Chassis Lift Switch to UP position and
elevate platform. The platform should only elevate
to the interlock height, about 2.44 m (8 ft.) above
the ground, and the Tilt Alarm should sound. If the
platform continues to elevate and/or there is no
alarm STOP and remove the machine from
service until repaired.

10. Lower the platform with the Chassis Lift Switch.

11. Enter the platform. Using the bubble level as a
guide level the platform with the Side/Side and
Fore/Aft Switches. Dismount platform.

not operate under its own power and it is neces­sary to move the machine or when towing the
machine up a grade or wenching onto a trailer to
transport.

1. Close the needle valve by turning the knob
clockwise.

2. Pump the Brake Release Pump until the Parking
Brakes release and the wheels can be turned.

3. The machine will now roll when pushed or
pulled.

4. Be sure to open the needle valve and verify
that the Parking Brakes have engaged before
the machine is operated.

Never operate work platform with the
Parking Brakes inoperative. Serious injury
or damage could result.

Never tow faster than .3 m/sec. (1 ft./sec.).

Fold Down Guardrails

This procedure is only for passing through door­ways. Guardrails must be returned to proper
position before using the machine.

Fold Down Procedure (Figure 4)

Note: When performing the following proce­dures retain all fasteners.

1. Place controller on platform.

2. Starting at the front of the platform, remove
nuts, bolts and washers from the top of the
front guardrail. Fold the front guardrail down
onto the platform.

3. Close and latch the gate.

4. Remove nuts, bolts and washers from the top
of the rear guardrail. Fold the rear guardrail
down onto the platform being careful to keep
gate latched at all times.

5. Remove nuts, bolts and washers from the top
of the side guardrails and from the slideout
deck midrail. Lift up and fold one side guardrail
in so it rests on the deck. Repeat with other
side guardrails.

Erection Procedure

1. Raise side guardrails making sure each is
pushed down to secure the guardrail in the
vertical position.

2. Install bolts, washers and nuts between the
side guardrails, tighten securely.

3. Raise rear guardrail assembly, aligning holes
and install bolts, washers and nuts. Tighten
securely.

4. Raise front guardrail, aligning holes and install
bolts, washers and nuts. Tighten securely.

5. Hang controller from front guardrail.

6. Before operating work platform check that all
fasteners are in place and properly torqued.

Before entering Platform, guardrails must
be securely fastened in their proper position.

Transporting Work Platform

By Forklift

Note: Forklifting is for transporting only.

See specifications for weight of work platform
and be certain that forklift is of adequate
capacity to lift platform.

Forklift from side of Chassis by lifting under the
Chassis Modules (Figure 5).

By Crane

1. Secure straps to Chassis Lifting Lugs only
(Figure 5).

By Truck

1. Manoeuvre the work platform into transport
position and chock wheels.

2. Secure the work platform to the transport
vehicle with chains or straps of adequate load
capacity attached to the chassis tie down lugs
(Figure 5).

Tie down lugs are not to be used to lift work
platform.

Overtightening of chains or straps through
tie down lugs may result in damage to work
platform.

Mantenimiento

Nunca efectuar trabajos de mantenimiento en la
plataforma de trabajo mientras ésta esté
elevada.

Nota: En ningún trabajo de mantenimiento normal
(periódico) para el SL26/30N se necesita que la
plataforma tenga que elevarse.

Mantenimiento de baterias

Riesgo de una mezcla de gas explosiva. Mantener
las chispas, llamas y cigarrillos lejos de las
baterías.

Siempre usar gafas protectoras cuando se
trabaje en las baterías.

El fluido de las baterías es muy corrosivo.
Enjuagar bien el fluido derramado con agua

limpia.

Inspección y limpieza de las baterías

Revisar diariamente el nivel de fluido de las baterías,
especialmente si se está usando la plataforma de
trabajo en un clima seco y caluroso. Si el nivel del
electrólito está más bajo que 10 mm (3/8 pulg.) sobre
las placas, añadir agua destilada y limpia solamente. El
uso de agua de la canilla con un alto contenido mineral
acortará la vida útil de la batería.

Inspeccionar la batería regularmente por si la caja está
quebrada, hay fugas de electrólitos y los bornes
presentan corrosión. Verificar que los cables no tengan
el aislamiento gastado o roto y que los conectores de
los bornes no estén averiados.

Limpiar la batería cuando se observe corrosión en los
bornes o cuando el electrólito se haya desbordado
durante la carga. Usar una solución con bicarbonato de
sosa para limpiar la batería, con cuidado para que no
se introduzca en las celdas. Enjuagar completamente
con agua limpia. Siempre que se cambie un cable,
limpiar la superficies de contacto de la batería y el
cable hasta obtener un acabado metálico brillante.
