2. TECHNICAL INFORMATION
2.1. DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINE
The machine is a self‑propelled hydraulic lifting device, fitted with a rotating basket positio‑
ned at the top of an extendable articulated structure, which also rotates. The lifting device is
intended for POSITIONING PERSONS AND THEIR EQUIPMENT AND MATERIALS AT A
HEIGHT ABOVE GROUND LEVEL.
2.1.1 CONTROL POSITION
The elevating platform was designed so that its carriage can be controlled by means of a
radio control that communicates with a receiver device located inside the distributor support
in the basket. All the controls for the movements of the carriage are grouped on the radio
control, and the radio control display shows all the information regarding the use of the
machine (both aerial part and carriage) and the diagnostic functions.
The aerial part of the machine is controlled by means of hydraulic levers located in the
basket and in the emergency control position on board the machine.
The control positions are defined according to the operations to be carried out as listed
below.
The aerial part control position is located inside the basket, at the level of the aerial part
hydraulic distributor. To ensure that this control position can be used, all the movements of
the aerial part must be enabled and the radio control must be positioned in its seat in the
basket; if the radio control is positioned incorrectly, the yellow warning light on the left side
of the distributor comes on.
