Original instructions written in English.
The purpose of this Operations and Safety manual is to provide users with the instructions and operating procedures
essential to properly and safely operate the Custom Equipment Hy-Brid Lift for its intended purpose, and to position
personnel and their necessary tools and materials.
THE OPERATION AND SAFETY MANUAL MUST BE READ AND
UNDERSTOOD PRIOR TO OPERATING THE MACHINE.
• The user/operator should not accept operating responsibility until the manual has been read and understood as
well as having operated the lift under supervision of an experienced and qualified operator.
• Because the manufacturer has no direct control over machine application and operation, proper safety
practices are the responsibility of the user and all operating personnel.
ANY MODIFICATION ON THIS MACHINE WITHOUT THE EXPRESS
WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE MANUFACTURER IS PROHIBITED.
Fall protection notice:
The guardrail system around the perimeter of the platform is the fall protection system for push-around elevating
work platforms per the ANSI/SIA A92.3 Standard. It is prohibited to use an Aerial Work Platform manufactured
by Custom Equipment, LLC. With any portion—or all—of the guardrails removed. Lanyard anchorage points on
this type of equipment are not required to conform to the applicable standard. However, if anchorage points for
lanyard attachments are required by site authorities or other regulations, the anchorage points on all equipment
manufactured by Custom Equipment, LLC. Are recommended to be used for work positioning restraints of
personnel only. Lanyard lengths are to be determined by operator/owner to restrict the operator to the confines
within the guardrail system.
USE OF FALL ARREST SYSTEMS ATTACHED TO ANCHORAGE POINTS ON
EQUIPMENT MAY CAUSE MACHINE TO TIP, RESULTING IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

1.2 | GENERAL RULES AND PRECAUTIONS
Custom Equipment, LLC designed the Hy-Brid Lift push-around scissor lift to be safe and reliable. It is intended for
elevating personnel, along with their necessary tools and materials to overhead work locations. Vibration does not
create significant hazards on this machine.
An operator of any type of work platform is subject to certain hazards that cannot be protected by mechanical
means. It is therefore essential that operators be competent, careful, physically and mentally fit, and thoroughly
trained in safe operation of this machine. Although Custom Equipment, LLC conforms to specified ANSI & OSHA
requirements, it is the responsibility of the owner to instruct operators with the safety requirements made not only
by Custom Equipment, LLC, but by the various safety boards in your area, as well as additional requirements set
forth by ANSI & OSHA If you come across a situation that you think might be unsafe, stop the platform and request
further information from qualified sources before proceeding.
NEVER REACH BETWEEN SCISSOR LINKS OR PROP UP PLATFORM

SECTION 1 | SAFETY
WHEELS EXTENDING BEYOND THE SIDES OF THE BASE MAY OCCUR IN TIGHT TURNING SITUATIONS.
1.3 | SAFETY FEATURES
• Puncture-proof wheels.
• Guardrails—43.83 in height with 6 in kick plates
• Non-slip deck.
• Entrance gate.
• Automatic brake when elevated
• Free descent protection. A pressure compensated flow control valve is installed in the hydrau-lic circuit to
prevent the platform from descending in case of a ruptured hydraulic hose. The platform is hydraulically locked
with a check valve and has controlled descent when valve activates.
• Decals. Danger, Caution, and Warning decals are displayed at various locations on this unit
• Key Switch Security. A key switch is required to prevent unauthorized use.
1.4 | SAFETY CONTROLS
Descent — Manual Override
For manually lowering the scissors, a manual valve is provided. To lower the scissors, pull the cable located near the
front of the machine.

SECTION 1 | SAFETY
IF PLATFORM SHOULD FAIL TO LOWER, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO
CLIMB DOWN THE BEAM ASSEMBLY. SERIOUS INJURY MAY
RESULT. HAVE AN EXPERIENCED OPERATOR USE THE EMERGENCY
LOWERING PROCEDURE TO SAFELY LOWER THE PLATFORM.
Emergency Stop
This lift is equipped with two emergency stop switches, one at the platform control and one at the base control,
that when activated, will render the unit inoperable until reset. To reset, pull the button out.
PUSHING THE EMERGENCY STOP BUTTON WILL STOP
MOVEMENT IMMEDIATELY. THIS MAY CAUSE UNEXPECTED
PLATFORM MOVEMENT AS THE MACHINE COMES TO A SUDDEN
STOP. BRACE YOURSELF AND SECURE OBJECTS ON THE
PLATFORM DURING OPERATION OF THE MACHINE.
1.5 | MAINTENANCE LOCK
The maintenance lock must be placed into position whenever the machine is being serviced in a partially raised
position. Serious injury and/or death could result if maintenance lock is not used properly.

SECTION 5 | OPERATION
5.3 | STARTUP/SHUT DOWN
• Check that the work area is safe.
• It is not recommended to maneuver the unit on a slope greater than 5°.
• Check that master power switch is in “ON” position.
• Ensure that the key in the lower control panel is in the “ON” position for the chassis or platform control.
• Machine must be on a hard, level, surface before operation.
• Check that bubble level is centered.
• Engage the manual brakes on the rear casters before elevating the platform.
• Enter the work platform in the stowed position using the constant three point contact method.
• Follow all general rules and precautions stated in this manual.
• When finished with the machine, place the platform in the stowed position.
• Carefully exit the platform using the constant three point contact method.
• NEVER JUMP OFF THE PLATFORM
• Park the machine on a level surface.
• Turn master power switch to o position.
• To prevent unauthorized use, remove the key from the master power switch.
• The key may be placed in the manual pouch and the cabinet padlocked to secure the machine in the isolated
position.
THE OPERATOR MUST BE AWARE OF THE ENVIRONMENT.
DO NOT RAISE THE PLATFORM IF THE MACHINE IS NOT ON
A FIRM, LEVEL SURFACE.
5.4 | ELEVATING AND LOWERING
Using Upper Platform Controls
Make sure the platform controls are selected with the selector switch at the base controls. To raise or lower the
platform, press the Elevate/Lower Enable Button. While holding down the Enable Button, rotate and hold the
Elevate/Lower switch until the platform is in the desired position.

SECTION 6 | DAILY MAINTENANCE
FAILURE TO PERFORM INSPECTIONS AND PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE AT RECOMMENDED
INTERVALS MAY RESULT IN THE UNIT BEING OPERATED WITH A DEFECT THAT MAY RESULT IN
INJURY OR DEATH OF THE OPERATOR. REGULAR INSPECTION AND CONSCIENTIOUS MAINTENANCE
IS IMPORTANT TO EFFICIENT ECONOMICAL OPERATION OF THIS MACHINE. IT WILL HELP TO
ASSURE THAT EQUIPMENT WILL PERFORM SATISFACTORILY WITH A MINIMUM OR SERVICE AND
REPAIR. MAKE CHECKS AT THE STATED INTERVALS OR MORE FREQUENTLY IF REQUIRED BY LOCAL
OPERATING CONDITIONS. A PRE-START INSPECTION CHECKLIST IS INCLUDED IN THIS MANUAL.
Additional maintenance for use by trained personnel is included in a separate Maintenance Manual. Refer to the
Maintenance Manual for Pre-Delivery/Frequent and Monthly Checklists and replace-ment part information.
6.1 | CHARGING THE BATTERY
This unit is equipped with a deep cycle 12-volt battery. The care and maintenance of your battery has much to do
with how well this unit functions. Battery wiring should be checked monthly.
NOTE: The surrounding temperature greatly aects the power reserve within a battery.
EXAMPLE: A battery that is 100% charged at 80° F (27°C) drops to 65% at 32°F (0°C). At 0°F (-18°C), this battery will
drop to 40% eciency.
LEAD-ACID BATTERIES GENERATE EXPLOSIVE GASES. KEEP
SPARKS AND FLAME AWAY FROM BATTERIES. DO NOT
SMOKE WHILE CHARGING.
Do not operate unit while charging. Shortened battery life will result.
To Charge:
• Park the machine on a level surface.
• Plug charger into AC outlet until charged.
• For best battery life, leave charger plugged in until machine will be used again. The charger will maintain the
battery charge.
• The charger will not begin the charging cycle on severely discharged batteries.
DO NOT OPERATE UNITE WHILE CHARGING
NEVER ADD ACID TO THE BATTERY

Battery solution is at its proper strength when the battery is manufactured. Use distilled water and keep fluid up to
proper level. When required, water should be added to battery after charging, unless water level is below the plates.
Reading the battery displays
This display indicates that the power is on but there is no connection to a
battery. The charger must see approximately five (5) volts on a battery to
deliver D/C current.
This display indicates that power is on and that both outputs are delivering
D/C current to the batteries
This display indicates that power is on and that the output is finished
charging and is in a float maintenance model.
