This document cannot be reproduced, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of ALMAC
s.r.l.
The use of this document is permitted only to the customer to whom the manual was provided as a kit
with the equipment, and only for purposes of use and maintenance of the equipment to which the manual
refers.
ALMAC s.r.l. declares that the information contained in this manual is consistent with the technical and
safety specifications of the equipment to which the manual refers. ALMAC s.r.l. assumes no responsibility
for direct or indirect damage to people, things or animals resulting from the use of the equipment in
conditions other than those provided.
ALMAC s.r.l. reserves the right to make changes or improvements without notice to this document and to
the equipment, without any obligation to update equipment already sent.
The information contained in this manual refers to the various equipment mentioned on the cover; some
images and / or information may not be specific to the set-up in the customer's possession because they
are not available or available on request.
1.1 Regulatory and legal aspects.
1.1.1 Documentation supplied.
The machine is delivered complete with the following documentation:
-Instruction manual (this document) including the Control Register;
-Spare parts manual;
-EC mark applied to the machine;
-EC declaration of conformity;
-Hydraulic schematic;
-Wiring diagram.
The instruction manual and the attached documents are integral parts of the machine and a copy of
these, together with the certificates of the mandatory periodic checks, must be kept on the machine in
the appropriate box. The original documents must be kept in a dry and protected place; in case of change
of ownership these documents must always accompany the machine.
In case of loss or damage, a new copy must be requested, specifying the model and serial number of the
machine.
1.1.2 Notification of commissioning, first check, subsequent periodic checks and
transfer of ownership.
The legal obligations of the owner of the machine differ according to the state in which the machine is
put into service. It is advisable to inquire about the procedures envisaged in your area at the bodies for
the protection of safety in the workplace. In order to improve the filing of documents and to record the
modification / assistance work, a section has been provided at the end of this booklet called "Control
Register".

PAGE 8
1.1.2.1Notification of commissioning and first check (only for Italy).
In Italy, the owner of the Elevating Work Platform (PLE) must report its commissioning to INAIL and submit
it to mandatory periodic checks. The first check is carried out by INAIL within sixty days from the request,
after which the employer can make use of the ASLs or authorized public or private entities.
Subsequent checks are carried out by the aforementioned subjects, who provide them within thirty days
from the request, after which the employer can make use of authorized public or private subjects. The
checks are expensive and the costs for their execution are borne by the owner of the machine. To carry
out the checks, the territorial supervisory bodies (ASL / USL or ARPA) and INAIL may avail themselves of
the support of authorized public or private entities. Authorized private entities acquire the qualification
of public service officers and report directly to the public structure that holds the function.
To report commissioning in Italy, it is necessary to connect to the INAIL portal following the instructions
on the portal itself.
INAIL will assign a serial number and during the First Inspection, will fill in the "technical identification
sheet", reporting on it only the data detectable by the machine already in service or inferable from the
instruction manual. This document will be an integral part of the machine documentation.
1.1.2.2Periodic checks following the first check.
In Italy, compulsory periodic checks take place annually. For their performance, it is necessary that the
owner of the PLE makes a request by registered letter to the supervisory body (ASL / USL or ARPA or other
authorized public or private subjects) competent for the territory at least twenty days before the end of
the year from the time of past verification.
It should be noted that, if a machine without a valid verification document is moved on the territory in
an area outside the competence of the usual supervisory body, it is the owner's obligation to request the
annual check from the supervisory body competent for the new territory. in which the machine is to
operate.
1.1.2.3Transfers of ownership of the PLE.
In Italy, in case of transfer of ownership, the previous owner of the PLE is required to communicate the
unavailability of the machine by connecting to the INAIL portal.
The new owner will have to retrieve the registration data of the PLE on the same INAIL portal, in order
to continue to subject the machine to the periodic checks required by law.
The new owner must in any case obtain from the previous owner the accompanying documentation
already mentioned in the previous chapters (see SUPPLIED DOCUMENTATION).
To take advantage of the WARRANTY and to receive any updates and SERVICE BULLETINS, the new owner
must report to ALMAC SRL that he has taken possession of the machine by means of written
communication using the forms provided at the end of this manual.

1.1.3 Training, information and training of operators.
Training, information and training of operators are legal obligations for the employer. The employer must
in fact ensure that the workers in charge of the use of the equipment receive adequate and specific
training to allow their use in a suitable and safe way, also in relation to the damage that may be caused
to other people and things. Remember that both the one who directly manoeuvres the machine and the
one on the ground for any recovery and rescue operations are considered operators.
The operators in charge must be at least 18 years old and be recognized as suitable from a psycho-physical
point of view for this task. In particular, before driving, it is necessary to check the following
requirements:
-Sight and hearing in good condition;
-Absence of alterations induced by the use of alcohol or drugs;
-Psychological balance, absence of depression or stress.
1.1.4 Tests are carried out before delivery.
Before being placed on the market, each example of the ALMAC platform was subjected to the following
tests:
Braking test
Overload test

1.2 Description and intended use of the machine.
The machine described in this manual is a self-propelled Elevating Work Platform or, as described by the
EN280 technical standard, a mobile machine designed to move people to work positions, in which they
perform tasks while remaining on the work platform, with the understanding that persons enter and exit
the work platform only through access positions at ground or chassis level, and which consists of at least
a work platform with controls, an extendable structure (lift arms) and a frame.
The planned activities are:
-Green maintenance;
-Maintenance and installation of systems or devices at height;
-Cleaning;
-Stripping, sandblasting, painting, welding (carefully protecting the machine and its devices);
-All the activities to be carried out at height with the operator on the platform;
The maximum capacity allowed (different for each model; refer to the technical data in the tables later
in this manual) consists of:
-For each person a load of 80 kg is considered;
-For the equipment, a minimum load of 40 kg is considered;
-The remaining load is represented by the material being processed.
The machine essentially consists of:
-A motorized undercarriage, with fixed track, equipped with crawlers.
-Hydraulically rotating turret;
-Extensible structure operated by hydraulic cylinders;
-Operator platform.
The base chassis is mainly composed of the following components:
-Fixed central frame on which the hydraulic control block for turret leveling and track
tensioning, and the undercarriage inclination sensor are installed;
-Left track equipped with electric gearmotor for moving the machine;
-Right track equipped with electric gearmotor for moving the machine;
-Articulated fifth wheel support that is operated directly by a pair of hydraulic cylinders for the
levelling control of the superstructure, on which the rotation fifth wheel is fixed.
The turret supports the power source (battery, inverters, electric pump) and all the components of the
control circuits (oil tank, hydraulic block, electronic control units, ground control station). It rotates
hydraulically and is fixed to the articulated support of the chassis. It allows rotation of the superstructure
with respect to the vertical axis of the machine. The allowed rotation is limited, and this limitation varies
from model to model (see the technical data table to understand the maximum rotation angle of each
model).
The extensible structure consists of
oTelescopic main arm;
oJib
The lifting / lowering movements of the arm and the jib are carried out by means of hydraulic cylinders
equipped with over-centre valves directly flanged on them in order to keep the arms in position even in
the event of accidental breakage of a supply pipe.
The telescopic extension is operated by a double-acting hydraulic cylinder with over-centre valve and by
a Fleyer chain system.
The work platform is fixed to the end of the jib arm and can be rotated differently for each model (see
the technical data table to understand the maximum rotation angle of each model) by means of a rotary
actuator also provided of the over-centre valve to keep it in position in case of hydraulic failure. The
platform is made of aluminium and is equipped with safety rails and toe-boards of regular height (Safety
rails H = 1100 mm; toeboard H = 150 mm). Platforms of various sizes can be installed; see technical data.
The levelling of the platform is automatic and is provided by an electronic automatic leveling system.
For transport needs, it is possible to reduce the overall length of the machine by removing the platform.
This operation is reserved to ALMAC authorized technicians and requires the use of tools.
The machine control system consists of several sensors that allow you to keep overall stability under
control by keeping the turret and the extensible structure level and adjusting the height, outreach and
working speed according to the various monitored parameters, i.e.:

PAGE 12
-Ground inclination;
-Opening angle of the main arm;
-Position of the telescopic extension of the arm;
-Opening angle of the jib;
-Loading on the platform.
By means of the display at the ground control station and the LED indicators on the control panel in the
platform, the operator on board is constantly informed of the operating limits reached and the
movements allowed.

PAGE 13
1.3 Operating positions.
The normal operating position is on the platform, whereas there is a control station on the ground for
platform emergency recovery, emergency stop, maintenance, and machine on/off.
1.3.1 Foot-driven use (function reserved for ALMAC authorized technicians).
It is possible, by means of an additional control console (provided to ALMAC authorised technicians only)
to drive the machine by walking operator, during loading/unloading operations of the machine from
containers or closed means of transport where it is necessary to remove the platform beforehand.
A limited number of movements are allowed using the additional control console, for the only purpose of
loading/unloading the machine.
This feature is not available to the operator for standard use.
1.4 Power.
The machine is equipped with an electrical and hydraulic system through which the movement is
obtained. The drive is controlled by a pair of electric gearmotors.
The machines can be set up with different energy sources based on the following:
-ELC version = Machine powered by lead-acid battery and electric pump;
-LTH version = Machine powered by lithium battery and electric pump;
The battery pack is easily interchangeable, and either the lithium battery or the lead-acid battery can
be installed, following the instructions in this manual.
In any case, both the hydraulic and electrical systems are equipped with all the necessary protections
(see electrical and hydraulic diagrams supplied as attachments to this manual).
1.5 Uses not permitted and "Exiting the platform at height".
Normal and permitted use of the machine is described in the previous paragraphs. Anything not described
as normal and permitted use is to be considered as not permitted use.
-It is forbidden to operate the work platform from the ground control station except for
emergency recovery operations and maintenance activities.
-It is forbidden to operate the work platform by means of additional control console (optional)
outside of loading/unloading operations.
-Since the MEWPs are designed to operate from the operating position on the platform, and the
only permitted access position is the one that foresees the platform on the ground, any activity
that involves accessing and / or exiting with the platform in a position other than that of access
(the so-called "landing at height") is formally prohibited.

1.6 Identification.
In the event of a request for spare parts and for interventions, the data shown on the registration plate
located on the turret or on the identification plate on the platform must always be mentioned. In case
of loss or illegibility of the plates (as well as for the various adhesive plates located throughout the
machine), it must be restored as quickly as possible.
For the location of the plates see the following figure. It is advisable to transcribe these data in the
following table:
