Elevating the Upper Boom
1. Set the function speed control dial to the desired
setting. Rotate the dial clockwise to increase
speed, counterclockwise to decrease. If you are
not sure what speed to use, start out slow; the
speed can be varied while operating the function.
2. While depressing the foot switch, push the upper

Leveling the Platform
DO NOT operate the machine if the plat-
form does not maintain level when elevated.
Note: Platform leveling can be performed only
with the boom stowed and should be done only
to calibrate the automatic leveling system.
1. Set the function speed control dial to the desired
setting. Rotate the dial clockwise to increase
speed, counterclockwise to decrease. If you are
not sure what speed to use, start out slow; the
speed can be varied while operating the function.
2. While depressing the foot switch, push the

platform upward, rearward to swing the platform
downward. Release the switch to stop leveling.
Rotating the Turret
1. Set the function speed control dial to the desired
setting. Rotate the dial clockwise to increase
speed, counterclockwise to decrease. If you are
not sure what speed to use, start out slow; the
speed can be varied while operating the function.
2. While depressing the foot switch, turn the turret
rotation control switch counterclockwise to rotate
left, clockwise to rotate right. Release the switch

Maintenance
FUELING
Gasoline
1. Open fill pipe cap located on chassis left side
(see figure 7).
2. Fill to capacity with unleaded motor fuel only.
3. Check fuel level by lifting flap located on top of
chassis left side (see figure 7). Fuel tank full
capacity is 25 US gallons.
Diesel
1. Open fill pipe cap located on chassis left side
(see figure 7).
2. Fill to capacity with diesel motor fuel only, grade
#1-D, or #2-D. Use distillate fuel only, do not
use residual or blend..
3. Check fuel level by lifting flap located on top of
chassis left side (see figure 7). Fuel tank full
capacity is 25 US gallons.
HYDRAULIC OIL
1. Check oil level at sight gauge inside engine
compartment right hand side with the platform
fully lowered.
2. If necessary, fill to capacity with clean ISO 46
compatible hydraulic oil.
3. Lift flap located on top of chassis right side (see
figure 7).
4. Open filler / breather cap to add hydraulic oil.
5. Replace cap.
LUBRICATION
Refer to service manual for lubrication chart and
guidelines.
BATTERY MAINTENANCE
Hazard of explosive gas mixture. Keep
sparks, flame and smoking materials away
from batteries.
Always wear safety glasses when working
with batteries.
Battery fluid is highly corrosive. Rinse away
any spilled fluid thoroughly with clean water.
Always replace batteries with UpRight
batteries or manufacturer approved replace-
ments weighing 62 lbs. each.
Check battery fluid level daily, especially if work
platform is being used in a warm, dry climate.
If electrolyte level is lower than 3/8 in. (10 mm)
above plates add distilled water only. DO NOT use
tap water it will shorten battery life.
Keep terminals and top of battery clean.
TIRES
Tire selection can affect the stability of the machine.
Use only tires supplied by UpRight unless approved
by the manufacturer in writing.
