Snorkel S2632E-sn000000 - Manual (Page 16)

14 S1930E/S1932E/S2632E – 1360417
Operation
• When the platform is elevated below approximately
1.8 m (6′) the aerial platform may be driven with the
full range of drive speeds.
• When the platform is elevated above 1.8 m (6′) only
the slowest drive speed will work.
Warning
The potential for an accident increases when safety
devices do not function properly. Death or serious
injury could result from such accidents. Do not alter,
disable, or override any safety device.
Do not use the aerial platform if it drives faster than 0.6
km/h (0.4 mph), which is 5.3 m (7′ 7″) in 30 seconds,
when elevated above 1.8 m (6′).
Drive/Lift Level Sensor Interlock
When the platform is elevated above 1.8 m (6′), lift and
drive functions are interlocked through a level sensor
system. If the chassis is tilted more than two degrees
side-to-side or front-to-rear, platform raise and drive
functions are disabled and an alarm sounds when those
controls are activated.
If the drive/lift level sensor interlock shuts off the platform
raise and drive functions, lower the platform and drive to
a level surface.
Fold Down Guardrails
The platform guardrails may be folded down to pass the
machine under low height obstructions.
Danger
The potential for an accident increases when the fold
down rails are lowered. Death or serious injury can
result in such accidents. Do not elevate the platform
with the fold down rails lowered. Use extreme care
when moving the aerial platform while the fold down
rails are lowered.
Use the following procedure to lower the platform guard-
rails.
1. Remove all materials from the platform floor and
retract the extension deck.
2. Remove the upper control panel from the side guard-
rail and place it on the floor of the platform.
3. Remove the pins that connect the front panel to the
guardrails on the right side of the platform extension.
Fasten the front panel to the mid rail on the left side
of the platform.
4. Remove the pins from the platform extension deck
vertical rails and fold the guardrails down to rest on
the floor of the platform.
Note
It may be necessary to extend the platform approximately
15 cm (6″) to remove the pins at the front of the platform.
If so, make certain to relock the extension deck in the
stowed position.
5. Remove the pins that connect the rear panel to the
guardrails on the right side of the platform. Fasten
the rear panel to the mid rail on the left side of the
platform.
6. Remove the pins from the platform deck vertical rails
and fold the guardrails down to rest on the floor of the
platform.
7. Reverse this procedure to reposition the rails.
Swing-Out Trays
Batteries and hydraulic components are enclosed in
swing-out trays on each side of the chassis.
• The battery tray on the left side of the chassis contains
the battery disconnect, batteries and the battery
charger.
• The hydraulic tray on the right side of the chassis
contains the lower controls, the hydraulic reservoir,
and the hydraulic fluid filter.
Danger
The aerial platform can tip over if it becomes unstable.
Death or serious injury can result from a tip-over
accident. Do not open the trays when the platform is
raised more than 2.4 m (8′).
To open the swing-out tray, push down on the latch and
swing the tray open.
Emergency Lowering
Use the following procedure to operate the emergency
lowering system.
Warning
The potential for an accident increases when safety
devices do not function properly. Death or serious
injury can result from such accidents. Immediately
push the emergency stop button inward to disable
the control system before using the emergency
lowering system in the event of an emergency.
1. Immediately push the emergency stop button inward
to disable the control system in the event of an
emergency.
2. Retract the platform extension deck if possible.
3. Make sure there is nothing in the way to obstruct the
platform when it lowers.
