DESCRIPTION OF THE PLATFORM
This elevator platform is of the self-propelled type, with a chassis in mechanically welded steel.
Movement is ensured by four hydraulic motors via a hydrostatic transmission. Steering is ensured
by a hydraulic jack. The diesel engine coupled to a variable flow pump supplies hydraulic power to
supply the functions of the platform. Electric power supplied by an alternator and a battery at a
total voltage of 12 volts.
In the working mode, the platform must be moved only on compacted and horizontal ground,
void of any obstacle. The wheels must be in permanent contact with the ground. The load must
be distributed in the platform, and must not exceed the nominal load set by the manufacturer,
regardless of the position of the hydraulic boom and telescope. The maximum nominal load is
indicated on the manufacturer plate of the machine.
