1.11 Intended use and improper uses
1.11.1 Intended use
The machine described in this manual is a self‐propelled elevating work platform
designed to lift personnel and equipment to perform the following jobs:
 professional gardening and general work
 installation of systems and equipment
 cleaning
 painting and paint removal
The maximum allowed capacity for this model is 300 kg. Consider the following:
 2 (two) persons each weighing 80 kg
 140 kg of equipment
An electronic control system prevents the work platform from lifting to any
position when the load exceeds approx. 20% of the rated load given in the
technical specifications.
The platform was designed and built to be driven only from the console located
on the work platform.
The push‐button is of the removable type and can only be used by the operator
to control the platform exclusively in transport position.
The controls on the ground on the rear side are for EMERGENCY use or
MAINTENANCE by qualified personnel.

PAGE 16 ALMAC s.r.l.
Warning: NEVER exceed the machine's established maximum capacity.
Warning: It is FORBIDDEN to transport large slabs or materials since this could
increase wind resistance to a considerable extent and cause the machine to tip
over.
Warning: It is FORBIDDEN to apply horizontal loads to the platform when the
machine is moving (e.g. the operators on board must not pull ropes or cables…)
Warning: It is FORBIDDEN to use the machine to tow other equipment or
vehicles.
Warning: the machine is designed to be driven around within public or private
areas. It is not designed for road circulation
Warning: The machine IS NOT SET FOR OPERATION IN ATEX CLASSIFIED
ATMOSPHERES
ALL LOADS must be positioned inside the work platform. NEVER LIFT LOADS
HANGING FROM THE PLATFORM, from the lifting structure or from the railings.
If the machine is used in places open to the public or in construction sites where
persons may transit or remain in the vicinity, the WORK AREA MUST BE
CORDONED OFF in a suitable way (e.g. chains and posts).

PAGE 17 ALMAC s.r.l.
1.11.2 Improper uses
Any other use not specifically indicated in 1.11.1 Intended use.
 The improper uses established for this MEWP include lifting and lowering
persons to/from different storeys within space (typical use of elevators).
 It is also forbidden to drive the platform to the ground using the mobile
push‐button panel with an operator on the work platform.
The platform was designed and built to be driven only from the console
located on the work platform. The controls on the ground on the rear side
are for EMERGENCY use or MAINTENANCE by qualified personnel.
The push‐button panel is of the removable type and can only be used by
the operator to control the platform exclusively in transport position.
1.11.3 Cases that relieve the manufacturer from liability
The manufacturer declines all liability in the following cases:
 Use not indicated in this manual
 Improper use of the machine or its use by untrained personnel
 Use that fails to comply with the specific standards
 Lack of scheduled maintenance
 Unauthorized changes or interventions
 Removal of seals
 Use of non‐original replacement parts
 Total or partial failure to comply with the instructions
 Failure to perform the Routine Inspections required by the laws in force

PAGE 18 ALMAC s.r.l.
2 SAFETY INFORMATION
2.1 Notification of commissioning and routine inspections
The work equipment indicated in Annex VII to Legislative decree D.Lgs 81/2008
and successive amendments must be subjected to REGISTRATION and ROUTINE
INSPECTIONS by the competent authorities, i.e. INAIL, the National Institute for
Insurance Against Industrial Accidents (former ISPESL, Higher Institute for
Prevention in the Workplace), the Local Health Authority and other public and
private bodies established by the criteria laid down in Ministerial decree DM
11/04/2011.
 The User or Employer must notify Commissioning to the territorially
competent National Institute for Insurance Against Industrial Accidents
(INAIL) for the purpose of registering the platform.
 Once the platform has been registered, ROUTINE INSPECTIONS must begin.
The FIRST of these is performed by INAIL within 45 days (since 21 August
2013) from the date on which the platform is put into service.
 The successive inspections, to be carried out at the frequency indicated in
Annex VII to Legislative Decree D.Lgs 81/2008, are carried out by the Local
Health Departments (ASL) or, when permitted by the regional laws, by ARPA
(Regional Agency for the Protection of the Environment) or by Public or
Private undertakings, as freely decided by the Employer or User and in
accordance with the established formalities.
Attached are a few EXAMPLES of "notice of commissioning" and "routine
inspections". Users should check them each time in the www.inail.it portal,
according to the installation site in question.
