valves are returned to their normal position.

Long-Term Storage

PRESERVATION
1. Clean and touch up damaged paint surfaces.
2. Fill the hydraulic tank to operating level with the

platform fully lowered. Fluid should be visible

on the tank dip stick.

3. Coat exposed portions of cylinder rods with a

preservative such as multipurpose grease and

wrap with barrier material.

4. Coat all exposed unpainted metal surfaces with

a light oil or other preservative.

5. Cover the machine with tarpaulin if possible. If

this is not available it is advisable to cover the

mast and jib mount area as a minimum. This will

prevent moisture from entering the mast, battery

and chassis areas.

AFTER USE EACH DAY

1. Ensure that the platform (masts and jib) are

fully lowered.

2. Park the machine on firm and level ground,

never on a grass surface.

3. Turn the key switch to the OFF position and

remove.

4. Put the batteries on charge.

BATTERIES
1. Disconnect the batteries at the quick connect

plug and socket. This is located in the chassis

between the controller and the hydraulic tank.

2. Disconnect the battery leads and tape up the

lead terminals to ensure insulation.

3. Better battery life and efficiency is achieved if

the batteries are used consistently. It is therefore

recommended that the batteries are used

elsewhere if the machine is to be unused for an

extended period ( 2 weeks or more).

WARNING

RISK of SERIOUS INJURY.

Take particular care when handling batteries. Acid

spills can cause severe burns or blindness. DO NOT

store batteries close to naked flames or close to steel

fabrication areas.
