WARNING
All personnel shall carefully read, understand and follow all safety rules, operating instructions,
and the Scaffold Industry Association’s MANUAL OF RESPONSIBILITIES of ANSI A92.6-1999
before performing maintenance on or operating any UpRight Aerial Work Platform.
Safety Rules
Safety RulesSafety Rules
Safety Rules
•NEVER operate the machine without first surveying the work area for surface hazards such as holes, drop-offs, bumps,
curbs, or debris.
•NEVER operate the machine if all guardrails are not properly in place and secured with all fasteners properly torqued.
•ALWAYS close and secure the entrance after entering the platform.
•NEVER use ladders or scaffolding on the platform.
•NEVER exceed the maximum platform load. See “Specifications” on page 16.
•NEVER attach overhanging loads or increase platform size.
•LOOK up, down and around for overhead obstructions and electrical conductors.
•DISTRIBUTE all platform loads evenly on the platform.
•NEVER use damaged equipment. (Contact UpRight for instructions. See toll free phone number on inside back cover.)
•NEVER change operating or safety systems.
•INSPECT the machine thoroughly for cracked welds, loose or missing hardware, hydraulic leaks, damaged cables or
hoses, loose wire connections, and wheel bolts.
•NEVER climb down elevating assembly when the platform is elevated.
•IF ALARM SOUNDS while the platform is elevated, STOP, carefully lower the platform. Move the machine to a firm, level
surface.
•IN CASE OF EMERGENCY push the Emergency Stop Switch to cut power to all machine functions.
•NEVER perform service on the machine while the platform is elevated without blocking the elevating assembly.
•NEVER recharge batteries near sparks or open flame; batteries that are being charged emit explosive hydrogen gas.
•NEVER replace any component or part with anything other than original UpRight replacement parts without the manufac-
turer’s written consent.
•VERIFY that all labels are in place and legible before using.
•NEVER tow the machine. Transport by truck or trailer only.
•AFTER USE, secure the machine against unauthorized use by turning the Chassis Key Switch off and removing the key.
California Proposition 65 Warning
Battery Posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead compounds, chemicals known to the State of
California to cause cancer and reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
NEVER operate or drive with the
platform elevated unless on firm, level
surface.
NEVER position the machine without
first checking for overhead obstructions
or other hazards.
NEVER climb, stand or sit on the
platform guardrails or midrail.

STAND CLEAR of the machine while performing the following checks.
Before operating the machine, survey the work area for surface hazards such as holes, drop-offs, bumps,
curbs, or debris.
LOOK up, down and around for overhead obstructions and electrical conductors.
Protect the control cable from possible damage while performing checks.
1. Move the machine, if necessary, to an unobstructed area to allow for full elevation.
2. Turn the Chassis and Platform Emergency Stop Switches ON by pulling the buttons out.
3. Check Level Sensor operation:
Figure 3: Level Sensor Location
a. Open the door.
b. Push and hold the sensor off of level.
c. Turn and hold the Chassis Key Switch to
CHASSIS and push the Chassis Up/Down
Switch to the UP position.
• The alarm should sound, and the plat-
form should not lift.
d. Close and latch the door.
4. Turn and hold the Chassis Key Switch to
CHASSIS and push the Chassis Up/Down
Switch to the UP position and fully elevate the
platform.
5. Visually inspect the mast assembly for dam-
age or erratic operation. Check for missing or loose parts.
6. Verify that the depression mechanism supports have rotated into position under the machine.
7. Partially lower the platform by pushing the Chassis Up/Down Switch to DOWN, and check the operation
of the audible lowering alarm.
8. Check the Emergency Down Valve for proper operation (see Figure 4):
a. Open the valve by pulling the knob out.
b. Once the platform is fully lowered, close the valve by releasing the knob.
9. Push the Chassis Emergency Stop Switch in to the OFF position. All machine functions should be dis-
abled. Pull the Chassis Emergency Stop Switch out to resume.

ation:
1. Replace the spring compression nut and
tighten until the spring measures 22,2 cm –
22,9 cm (8¾ in. – 9 in.) in length, verify that
the brake bars have fully engaged the tires
before the machine is operated.
WARNING
!!
Never tow faster than 0,3 m/sec. (1 ft./sec.).
Never operate the machine with the parking brakes released. Serious injury or damage could result.

WARNING
!!
Hazard of explosive gas mixture. Keep sparks, flame,
and smoking material away from batteries.
Always wear safety glasses when working near
batteries.
Battery fluid is highly corrosive. Thoroughly rinse away
any spilled fluid with clean water.
Always replace batteries with UpRight batteries or
manufacturer approved replacements weighing 26,3 kg
(58 lbs.) each.
•Check the battery fluid level daily, especially if the machine is being used in a warm, dry climate.
•If electrolyte level is lower than 10 mm (3/8in.) above the plates add distilled water only. DO NOT use
tap water with high mineral content, as it will shorten battery life.
•Inspect the battery regularly for signs of cracks in the case, electrolyte leakage and corrosion of the
terminals.
•Inspect cables regularly for worn spots or breaks in the insulation and for broken cable terminals.
•Keep the terminals and tops of the batteries clean.
•Refer to the Service Manual to extend battery life and for complete service instructions.

B ATTERY C HARGING
Figure 10: Battery Charge Indicator
Charge the batteries at the end of each work shift or
sooner if the batteries have been discharged.
WARNING
!!
Charge the batteries in a well ventilated area.
Do not charge the batteries when the machine is near a
source of sparks or flames.
Permanent damage to the batteries will result if the
batteries are not immediately recharged after discharging.
Never leave the battery charger operating for more than two days.
Never disconnect the cables from the batteries when the charger is operating.
Keep the charger dry.
1. Check the battery fluid level. If the battery fluid level is lower than 10 mm (3/8in.) above the plates add
distilled water only.
2. Connect an extension cord (1,5 mm²[12 gauge] minimum conductor diameter; 15 m [50 ft.] maximum
length) to the charger plug located through a cutout at the left side of the chassis.
3. The charger turns on automatically after a short delay. There are three LED’s to indicate the state of
charge cycle.
•The first LED will blink until the batteries reach 50% state of charge, and then it will stop blinking and
stay ON.
•The second LED will blink until the batteries reach 75% state of charge, and then it will stop blinking
and stay ON.
•The third LED will blink until the batteries reach 100% state of charge, and then it will stop blinking and
stay ON.
•When the batteries are fully charged, all three LED’s will stay ON. The battery charger will automati-
cally turn off a short time after the batteries reach full charge.
NOTE: The battery charger circuit must be used with a GFI (Ground Fault Interrupt) outlet.
NOTE: DO NOT operate the machine while the charger is plugged in.

Daily Inspection and Maintenance Schedule
D AILY I NSPECTION AND M AINTENANCE S CHEDULE
The Complete Inspection consists of periodic visual and operational checks, along with periodic minor
adjustments that assure proper performance. Daily inspection will prevent abnormal wear and prolong the
life of all systems. Perform the inspection and maintenance items daily. Inspection and maintenance shall
be performed by personnel who are trained and familiar with mechanical and electrical procedures.
WARNING
!!
Before performing preventative maintenance, familiarize yourself with the operation of the machine.
Always block the elevating assembly whenever it is necessary to perform maintenance while the
platform is elevated.
The daily preventative maintenance checklist has been designed for machine service and maintenance.
Please photocopy the Daily Preventative Maintenance Checklist and use the checklist when inspecting
the machine.
