will operate correctly while the machine is elevated,
it is then vital that each Outrigger Limit Switch is
individually tested. Raise the Rear Left Screw Jack
until the switch is no longer activated (will simulate
Outrigger out of deployment). At this point the TL33
should have the following characteristics;
the alarm will sound and the DOWN & SLEW Boom
functions only will be operable from the Lower
Controls.
The above test should be repeated for all Outriggers.
18. Lower each boom until the Elevating Assembly is
fully stowed. Repeat all the above tests from
the Platform Controls.
19. While testing the Platform Controls it is also
necessary to test that the Emergency Override
functions will work. While elevated in the Platform
request a colleague to activate the Tilt Sensor. The
alarm should sound and normal controls should
cease. By turning the Platform Selector Switch to
the Emergency Override position the DOWN
functions and SLEW functions only will be
activated.
The Emergency Override functions should also give
the Down & Slew functions only when an
Outrigger Limit Switch is deactivated. Carry out
the tests as outlined in Item No.17 in this section.
The System Function Inspection is then complete.
PRE-TRANSPORT INSPECTION
20. Lower the jockey wheel until it is in contact with the
surface.
21. Retract the Outriggers fully, making sure that they
will rest in the vertical position. To do this the
operator must do the following for each Outrigger:
l
Raise the Screw Jack until the Locking Pin can be
released from the lower slot on the Quadrant Plate.
l
Release the Locking Pin and rotate the Outrigger
Assembly until the Locking Pin will securely slot into
the upper slot on the Quadrant Plate.
22. Return the Keyswitch to the OFF (centre) position.
Check tyre pressures and thread depth. These
procedures are further detailed on Page 8.
If there are any concerns about the safe use or
operation of the TL33 following this
Pre-Operation Inspection DO NOT USE THE
TL33 WORK PLATFORM. Contact your
supplier or UpRight’s Product Support
Department.
WARNING
Before operating the TL33 Work Platform it is
imperative that the Pre-Operation Inspection has
been completed and any deficiencies have been
corrected. The operator must also be fully trained
on this machine.
TOWING
Before Towing, ensure that the Elevating Assembly
is properly stowed and secured using the Locking
Pin, and that the Outriggers are raised, retracted
and locked into position. See Pre-Transport
Inspection as before. Ensure the tyres are free
from damage, inflated to the correct pressure and
have sufficient thread depth. Ensure the breakaway
cable is properly attached to the towing vehicle
before driving away.
Adjust the Jockey Wheel using the screw handle until
the Towhitch is just above the height of the tow ball on
the towing vehicle.
Position the tow vehicle and fit the breakaway cable to
a suitable attachment point on the towing vehicle (not
the tow ball stem or towing pin).
While pushing the release button on the Towhitch lower
the Receiver onto the Tow Bar using the screw handle
on the Jockey Wheel, until the catch snaps into position.
Then when the receiver is secure and the Tow Bar is
taking some of the machines weight retract the Jockey
Wheel to its full extent, at which point the Jockey
Wheel will be in its locked position. Retighten the
clamp. This will negate the possibility of the wheel
moving and so the possibility of the Jockey Wheel
screwing down during transport.
Connect the electrical lead to the tow vehicles socket.
Check all lights for correct operation before transporting
the machine.
NOTE:
Exercise caution during brake “Running In” period
(First 500 miles or 850 Km). When parking on
slopes fully tension the Hand Brake. When moving
the TL33 in reverse ensure that the Hand Brake
spring is fully compressed. Check that the TL33 is
moving in reverse. When not in use it is advisable to
chock wheels to prevent movement.
