Chapter 1 Preface
The aluminum mast type of mobile elevating work platform is one of the best equipment
available for aerial work. Dual mast of mobile elevating work platforms are designed to
position one or two person along with their necessary tools and materials, at overhead work
position.
They are generally intended for use over level surfaces. Normally, they are not insulated for
use near electrical energized circuits nor are they intended to be used in hazardous location.
They are mainly used for business decoration, ceiling/fixture works, industrial facilities
maintenance, lamps and lanterns replacement in halls, maintenance of street lamp, aerial
photographs and wall cleaning etc. in following area where their working position height is
less than 13.7m:
Office buildings, shopping centers, theatres, hospitals, warehouses, factories, museums,
auditoriums, hotels, gymnasium, business/convention center, airports, auto stations and
highway toll station etc.
The dual mast mobile elevating work platform has the following features:
1.1 Stable lifting and lowering: The unit adopts seamless transmission between the lifting
masts, thus minimizing the amount of sway after lifting.
1.2 Safe and reliable: The unit is designed with leveling stabilizer which includes two types
of support; one, the height-adjusting bolts for leveling and two, the outriggers for
preventing inclination. The bolts are rigidly fixed directly on the chassis whilst the
outriggers enlarge the anti-inclination base support area, thus providing double
protection of safety and stability.
1.3 Convenient: As the lifting masts are made of aluminum, the unit is light and compact. It
can easily access through standard doorways or narrow passages. In most cases, only
one person is required to move the equipment.

5.2.3 Supporting and Leveling the Unit

Supporting and leveling the unit is achieved by adjusting the

four threaded support bolts at four corners of the chassis. The
sketch below shows the following parts:

1. Flanged foot 2. Threaded bolt

3. Support frame(adjustable) 4. Ratchet wheel 8
5. Swing handle 6. Hand wheel 9
7. Support frame(fixed to chassis) 8. Support frame screw

The operation is as follows:
1) Turn the ratchet wheel 4 until the flange contacts the 82
ground for all the four bolts. 3
2) Turn swing handle 5 to let the nearest chassis wheel is
just lifted off the ground. 2
3) Adjust the leveling by observing the bubble level 1
gauge.

Warning! You must observe the bubble level gauge squarely. The bubble should be
within the center circle of the gauge.

Warning! Once you doubt leveling is incorrect, just base on mast and use rectangle
level gauge to verify it.

 Caution! When you found the direction of screw reverse, turn hand wheel 6 to
another side.

 Caution! The set up angle of support frame is changeable. While operating along
the wall or moving space is limited, it can function by turning the support
frame screws 8. But when normal operation should keep it in normal
position.

5.2.4 Operating the Outriggers

There may be horizontal forces acting on the platform such as wind and work on the
platform that may, if excessive, render the platform unstable. The platform may also become
unstable during lifting due to excessive wind. The mobile elevating work platform has four
outriggers, the sketch below shows the following parts:

The lower controls are together with the electrical box. Always remove the key from
the electrical box to prevent unauthorized use when the unit is unattended or not in
use.

6.5 Emergency Operation

In the event of power cut-off or other reasons and the platform fails to descend using
both the upper and lower controls, an emergency device consisting of a release valve
located at the hydraulic pump (Please refer to structural drawing of the hydraulic
pump in P15) is used to lower the platform. Turn the valve counterclockwise and
the platform will be lowered slowly. Once the platform has descended to its lowest
position, the valve should then be closed securely.

6.6 Moving the Unit

6.6.1 To move the unit to storage or to another work site, first lower the work platform to
its rest position and switch off the power. Secure the outriggers in their stored
position and loosen off the support bolts. The unit is now ready to be moved.
6.6.2 If the next site is a long distance away, other means of transportation will need to be
used. Please refer to clause 5.1.1
Warning!
1) The electrical plug should be pulled out of the electrical socket to prevent any
unexpected incident.
2) If the equipment has to pass over uneven ground, ensure that the support bolts are
screwed up to the maximum so that the flanged feet do not make contact with the
ground.

15
 Page 16 of 34

▪ Load-sensing devices of stabilizers

There are load-sensing devices in four stabilizers(outriggers). Without setting up all the
outriggers to the support frame, the platform cannot work. Please check the function of these
load-sensing devices in four stabilizers. Stop to use this machine and inform the
manufacturer/agent immediately if they can not work normally.
▪ Emergency stop switches
There are two emergency stop switches in these machine. Please check the function of these
two emergency stop switches. Stop to use this machine and inform the manufacturer/agent
immediately if they can not work normally.

lower controls.
Please check the function of the emergency release valve. Stop to use this machine and
inform the manufacturer/agent immediately if it can not work normally.

7.3 Periodical examinations and tests

This MEWP should be examined and tested as the following items every six months.
•Visual examination of the structure with special attention to corrosion and other damage of
load-bearing parts and welds.
•Examination of the mechanical, hydraulic, and electrical systems with special attention
to safety devices as mentioned in clause 7.2.
•Functional test(please make reference to Annex I to follow the same test)
Note:
The frequency and extent of periodical examinations and tests may also depend on national
regulations.

7.4 Examinations and tests after major alterations or major repair

Warning!
Any alterration which might affect stability, strength or performance of this machine should
obtain the guidance and approval of the manufacturer.

Note:
1) If it is found that the initial ascending pressure is not at rated value, remove the
hydraulic pump cover and referring to the sketch above, turn the regulating valve (1)
on the hydraulic pump unit clockwise to the desired ascending pressure.
2) If necessary, a pressure gauge (supplied as an attachment) could be connected to the
emergency lowering valve block for hydraulic system pressure checking.

7.5.2 Adjusting the descending speed

The work platform’s descending speed can also be adjusted.

Note:
Referring to above sketch, turn the “throttle valve” adjusting screw (2) clockwise for
decreasing and counterclockwise for increasing the speed
7.5.3 Fluid level checking
A separate fluid level indicator is provided as an attachment for both the permissible
maximum fluid level and the necessary minimum level when the machine is in the
transport position.
7.5.4 Adjustment of Transmission Chain
The direct result of transmission chain wear is elongation of overall chain length.
The transmission chain should be checked visually for elongation every three months.
The mast connected to the elongated chain would be lower in position so that the top
of each mast will not be level in ‘stored’ position. It may lead to damage on guide
wheel baffle if the problem is serious.

Note:
Each transmission chain is associated with three
masts. The sketch on the right shows the
connection of the masts and the transmission chain.
In the sketch:
lower mast；2-intermediate mast；3-transmission
chain; 4-adjusting screw；5-adjusting nut；6-chain
wheel；7-chain wheel shaft；8-upper mast。
1) Determine the mast that needs to be raised when
adjusting a chain’s length. Adjusting nut (5)
would cause upper mast (8) to be raised.
2) Tighten the double nuts (5) to lock after carrying

17
 Page 18 of 34

out the adjustment.

Warning!
One mast is lifted by two chains in parallel which simultaneously bear the lifting
load. Should one of the chains not be taking the load, the other chain will assume
the full load. It is essential then to maintain equal tightness in the chains.
Check method at site: Press the two chains with your fingers to compare their
tautness under lifting status.

7.5.5 Hydraulic Oil Change

The first hydraulic oil change should be done within 6 months of regular use of the
equipment, to clean off the residue from initial wear (if any). Subsequent oil
changes can be carried out in intervals of one to one and a half years (suggested)
or depending on oil condition.

Note:
1) The choice of hydraulic oil depends on the temperature of the working
environment. Normal hydraulic oil of kinetic viscosity ISO 46 Cst. (at
400C) is recommended unless under extreme cold conditions. (e.g.
Duckhams Zircon 46, Esso Nuto H46, BP Energol HLP 46, Mobil DTE 26,
Shell Tellus Oil 46)
2) When changing hydraulic oil, first place a receptacle under the oil tank. Open
the oil-filling cap (6) at the top of the tank first, and then remove the drain
plug at the bottom. Flush the oil tank by pouring a small amount of clean
hydraulic oil from top cap (6) after the used oil has been completely drained.
Tighten the drain plug (5) after all the oil has been drained. Then fill up with
clean hydraulic oil and allow for a slight overflow to displace any air.

7.5.6 Deal with the hose break valve

A hose break valve has been fitted in the outlet of each hydraulic cylinder which
prevents undue and uncontrolled platform movement during pipe breaks so as to
prevent accidents.

During normal operating conditions hose break valves are in the open position and
allows flow in both directions. Once pipe breaks, the outlet flow exceeds the
pre-set value of the valve and the closing element is pushed abruptly onto the
valve seat to stop hydraulic flow out from cylinder. The valve opens automatically
by pressure being applied from outside to cylinder.
Note:
1) In order to prevent hose break valve acting mistakenly, platform lowering
speed adjustment should not exceed 9m/mim for which fitted with hose break
valve. Too fast descending may actuates hose break valve acting and infect the
platform normal lowering operation.

2) When hose break valve take effect and prevent undue and uncontrolled
platform movement, there maybe still exists a slowly descending of platform.
Once pipe breaks occurs, as long as the platform is hold on position, a steel
rod should be used to block and held the aluminum mast which connected
directly to hydraulic cylinder until the broken pipes are replaced or repaired.

18
 Page 19 of 34

The steel rod should be removed as long as the hydraulic system is working in
order again.

7.6 Lubrication of Components

Moving components that generate friction should be regularly lubricated.

7.6.1 Apply lubricating oil on the rotational friction surface between the chain wheel and its
shaft by means of a lubricating gun. The oil-filling nipple is located on the side of the
chain wheel. Lift the mast if necessary to locate the oil-filling nipple.
7.6.2 Apply lubricating oil on the rotational friction surface between the chain and chain
wheel by means of a lubricating gun.

7.6.3 Apply calcium-based lubricating grease on the plane friction surface between the rails
of the contacting masts by means of a brush. (e.g. Mobiltac 81, Shell Livona 3,
Castrol CL)

7.6.4 Apply lubricating oil on the rotational friction surface between chassis wheel and its
shaft by means of a lubricating gun.

Chapter 8 Trouble shooting

Most problems that may occur while operating the mobile elevating work platform
can easily be solved. Should any of the following problems occur in service, please
follow the recommended checks as listed below to troubleshoot the fault. If you are
still unable to solve the problem after running the checks, please obtain assistance
from your supplier or an experienced service technician.

8.1 Problem 1 – Electrical power indicator light is off and there is no lifting and lowering
operation.
8.1.1 Check that the electrical cord is correctly plugged into the socket.
8.1.2 Check the circuit breaker to make sure it’s in ‘ON’ position.
8.1.3 Check the leakage breaker to make sure it’s in ‘ON’ position.

8.2 Problem 2 – The power indication light is on, but there is a ‘dadada…” sound in the
electric box when the ‘ascend’ button is pressed and the platform either does not lift
or cannot be lifted fully.
8.2.1 Check the electrical cable to see if it is too long or too thin. The diameter of cable
wire should be minimum 1.0 mm when the wire length is less than 25 meters, and
minimum 1.5 mm when the wire length is above 25 meters and less than 50 meters.
You can try to plug the equipment cord directly in the fixed socket, instead of to an
extension cord.
8.2.2 Check power voltage to make sure it is within allowable limits.

19
 Page 20 of 34

8.3 Problem 3 – Excessive noise from hydraulic power unit during ‘lifting’ operation.
8.3.1 Check oil tank to make sure there is sufficient hydraulic oil in the tank.
8.3.2 Check the oil pump suction line connections for tightness, as air would get into the
oil line via the oil pump.
8.3.3 Check the mounting screws of the electric motor, and cover etc. to see if they have
become loose.
8.3.4 The ambient temperature should be within.

8.4 Problem 4 – Hydraulic oil leakage

8.4.1 Check all piping connections for their tightness, and tighten up if necessary.
8.4.2 Check the viscosity of the oil in use to make sure it is not too thin

8.5 Problem 5 – Platform undue descending slowly and not able to held the platform in

1) Loose the nut near the solenoid coil unit (Figure 1)

Warning
Before carry out this procedure, please make sure the platform is fully lowered in
its storage position
2) Pull out the solenoid coil unit (be careful with the o-ring inside) (Figure 2) to
expose the solenoid valve core (Figure 3) and note the hexagon portion (Figure 5）
3) Get the valve core out by putting sleeve spanner on the hexagon portion (Figure 4)
and turning it counterclockwise (Figure 5).
4) Use compressed air to blow on the end of the valve core so as to remove dust and
rubbish on the surface (Figure 6).
5) Use petrol to clean the valve core and refit it into hydraulic pump together with
solenoid coil unit and nut to finish servicing.
