1.4 General Maintenance Information
Any repair or maintenance work on a Niftylift must be undertaken by a competent person with sufficient
training and experience to perform the activity. Basic mechanical, hydraulic, and electrical skills are
required to perform routine maintenance and minor repairs to a Niftylift. However, several procedures
require specialised skills, tools, lifting equipment and a suitable workshop. In these instances, it is
recommended that maintenance and repair be performed by Niftylift or at a Niftylift approved service
centre.
Manufacturer's safety rules and instructions must be obeyed at all times.
Refer to “Frequent Inspection” on page 4 where the Niftylift has been out of service for a period longer than
3months.
FAILURE TO PERFORM PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE AT THE REQUIRED
INTERVALS MAY RESULT IN A NIFTYLIFT THAT IS NOT SAFE TO USE WHICH
COULD CAUSE INJURY OR POSSIBLE DEATH.
Regular inspections and appropriate maintenance will ensure the Niftylift performs efficiently and
economically with minimal service or repair down time.
1.4.1 Pre-Maintenance Checks
Perform the following before maintaining the Niftylift:
• Park the Niftylift on firm and level ground,
• Turn off ignition, remove the key, and relieve hydraulic system pressure,
• Ensure the Niftylift is in transport mode, i.e. all booms lowered and slewed parallel to the base, and
cage floor horizontal,
• Ensure wheels are chocked, and, if installed, engage the parking brake,
• Allow the Niftylift to cool down,
• Disconnect power to the Niftylift,
• Disconnect batteries before replacing electrical components.
1.4.2 Maintenance Information
Ensure maintenance is carried out in suitable workshop facilities with appropriate tools and suitable lifting
equipment.
Components must be replaced with identical or equivalent parts. If unsure contact your nearest Niftylift
approved dealer for advice.

ALL MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS CARRIED OUT ON YOUR NIFTYLIFT ACCESS
PLATFORM.
Do not wear jewellery whilst carrying out maintenance. Restrain long hair and do not wear loose clothing.
Ensure the work area is well ventilated and well lit.
Never work under an elevated boom. Booms must be restrained from movement by blocking, using
overhead slings or fitting a safety prop.
Ensure all stepping surfaces, hand holds and anti-slip surfaces are free from oil, dirt, fuel and ice. Do not
step on parts of the Niftylift which are not intended for this.
Use caution when checking hot pressurised systems such as hydraulic and engine coolant.
Use correct tools and equipment, broken or damaged tools and equipment should be replaced/repaired.
Where hydraulic or electrical circuits need to be energized e.g. during maintenance or diagnostic
procedures, personnel must be aware of moving parts and position themselves accordingly to avoid being
crushed or injured.
1.5.2 Machine Damage Prevention
Never reset a pressure relief valve to a value higher than that stated by the manufacturer.
Ensure no tools, equipment or other objects have been left on the Niftylift.
Please contact your nearest Niftylift approved dealer prior to carrying out any welding.

1.5.5 Hydraulic Safety
Hydraulic oil escaping under pressure can penetrate
the skin and cause serious injury. Do not allow
hydraulic oil to squirt or spray.
Seek immediate medical attention in the event of
hydraulic oil penetrating the skin.
Wear chemical-resistant protective gloves and suitable
eye protection when handling hydraulic oil.
Relieve system pressure before removing any
hydraulic connections, undo fittings slowly to make
sure there is no residual pressure. If pressure is
detected, allow it to be released slowly before
completely removing hose.
Fluid leaks may not be visible to the naked eye. Use a piece of cardboard to check for leaks, not your hand.
Never install hydraulic lines or components that are damaged.
Ensure all connections are correctly tightened (See section 2.7).
1.5.6 Environmental Awareness
When draining fluids, ensure they are collected in a suitable container and spillages avoided.
