Rev C page 1-5
Batteries give off hydrogen and oxygen that
can combine explosively. Death or serious
injury can result from a chemical explosion.
Do not smoke or permit open flames or
sparks when checking batteries.
! CAUTION
Battery acid can damage the skin and eyes.
Serious infection or reaction can result if
medical treatment is not given immediately.
Wear face and eye protection, rubber gloves
and protective clothing when working near
batteries.
! CAUTION
If acid contacts your eyes, flush immediately
with clear water and get medical attention. If
acid contacts your skin, wash off immediately
with clear water.

Height Restriction
! IMPORTANT
The height restrictor fitted to the standard
TL39T, is not the same device as the 10.9m
restriction kit, although both of these devices
achieve the same result of restricting the
maximum height of the platform to 10.9m
from the ground.
This is to allow the unit to be operated by
unlicensed operators in accordance with Australian
legislation.
! WARNING
An Australian operator MUST hold a WP
Certificate of Competency in order to operate
the machine at heights in excess of 11m.

Height Restriction on TL39T
The TL39T (in standard mode) is fitted with a
restrictor in the upper hydraulic lift cylinder to keep
the platform to a maximum height of 10.9m.
■
10.9 Metre Restriction Kit
Machines that are built for the Australian market
may be fitted with a 10.9m restriction kit.
This kit which can be fitted to the MHP14AT is fitted
to restrict the maximum height to the platform floor
at 10.9 m from the ground.
Note:
See the Options chapter page 5 for details
concerning this kit.
