Safety devices on the machine
3.8.1
Deadman control
The deadman control of the machine ensures that the function is only carried out
as long as the operator holds the respective control pressed on the control de-
vice.
3.8.2
Independent hydraulic circuits
Two hydraulic circuits independent of one another prevent the unintended lower-
ing of the platform. In the event of a break in a hydraulic line in one of the hydrau-
lic circuits, the other hydraulic circuit holds the platform.
3.8.3
Euro Stop
When lowering the platform, the Euro Stop feature stops the lowering process in
order to prevent crushing and other hazards. The sensor for the Euro Stop must
be set at the time of initial commissioning (
Chap. 6.3.2 "Euro Stop sensor", page
3.8.4
Main switch
The main switch turns the current supply to the machine on and off.
The main switch is also an emergency off switch. In the event of an emergency,
set the switch to the "0" position.
3.8.5
Pressure limiting valve
The pressure limiting valve prevents overloading of the hydraulic system. It is fac-
tory preset and may not be adjusted by the operating company. When overload-
ed, the platform can no longer be raised.
3.8.6
Line breakage protection in the cylinder connection
The line-break safety device in the cylinder connection interrupts the flow if a
break occurs in the hydraulic lines.
