1. GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
1.1. INTRODUCTION AND INTENDED USE
This equipment is built for lifting people intended as moving people to a working po-
sition where they have to do the work from the platform itself, with the intention that
people can only get off or on the platform at ground level.
1.2. DESCRIPTION
“Ragno” unit mainly consists of a chassis with 4 articulated stabilizing legs, hydraulically
controlled, a turntable slewing on a ball bearing ring.
Steel made multi-telescopic boom is hinged to the turntable and it supports the aerial cage,
with an hydraulically articulating jib.All movements are actuated by hydraulic cylinders, or
hydraulic motors.
The equipment is supported by rubber tracks or wheels fully integrated into the base chassis
It also has three energy sources: two electric motors and a soundproofed heat engine, alter-
native to each other and both suitable for the movement of the arms and for the independent
travelling of the equipment.
Electro-hydraulic controls in the two position, complementary to each other; the ones on
the cage are used for the work movements of the arms, while on the ground, it is possible to
travel with the tracks, the placement of the stabilizers and, if enabled, the movements of the
arm for the emergency recovery of people.
1.3. DIRECTIVE AND RULES
2006/42/CE Directive indicates the conditions to deliver the machine in EU market.
The machine supplied by Palazzani Industrie is a machine complying one of the ma-
chines category listed in the Directive attachment IV.
To comply with the conformity of the machine to the Directive dispositions, Palazza-
ni fulfils the risks analysis to verify the respect of safety and health essential subjects
indicated in the Directive, further than performing the tests and check required in the
applied rules, before delivering the machine.
The manufacture technical report is issued conforming with attachment VII of Directive
2006/42/CE and it is available for the inspecting institutes under justified request, as
required by the law dispositions in force.

Pag. 2OM1202_US
Palazzani Industrie provides, therefore, to supply the machine to the market, complete
of:• CE Mark
• CE Declaration of conformity
• Instructions and warning manual
1.4. LIFE CYCLES
In applying the UNI EN 280: 2015 standard, for the calculation of the fatigue stress, a
“heavy duty” application was considered, which translates into a life span of 100,000
load cycles (for example a duration of 10 years, considering 50 working weeks per year,
for 40 hours per week and for 5 load cycles per hour).
1.5. SPECIAL USE
In case the machine is needed for special works, or to be used in different conditions in
respect to point 1.1, a written approval as authorization by Palazzani Industrie is requi-
red. If there is a need to alter the effect of the stability, strength and performance of the
platform, written approval by Palazzani Industrie is required.
