4. Maximum capacity of the manual platform extension
is 120 kg - 1 person.
NOTE: The weight in the platform should be uniformly dis-
tributed in the platform. The total combined weight of
personal, tools and supplies must not exceed the
above figures.
4.10 SAFETY PROP
THE SAFETY PROP MUST BE USED WHENEVER MAINTENANCE
PERFORMED ON THE MACHINE REQUIRES THE SCISSOR ARMS
TO BE RAISED.
To engage the safety prop, raise the platform, then
remove the prop from the prop bracket until it hangs verti-
cally. Lower the platform until the safety prop rests on the
point provided on the arm. Maintenance can now begin.
To store the safety prop, raise the platform so that the
prop can be rotated counterclockwise until it rests on the
bracket provided on the scissor arms.
4.11 TIE DOWN AND LIFTING
When transporting the machine, the platform extension
must be fully retracted and the platform fully lowered in
the stowed mode with the machine securely tied down to
the truck or trailer deck. There are tie down eyes located
at all four corners of the machine to secure the machine
for shipping. Refer to Figure 4-2., Lift and Tie Down for
