position as shown in order to save space, and they may

also be rotated outwards to a comfortable position for

the operator. To rotate the handles, loosen the handle

adjustment knobs and rotate the handles into the

desired position. Tighten the adjustment knobs to

secure in place.

The height of the handles can be adjusted in three 6 CM

(2-3/8in) steps. To adjust the height of the handles,

loosen the handle adjustment knobs enough so the

handles can be freely moved up or down. Each step on

the handle tube has an indicator groove and a clamping

groove. Move the handle so that the indicator groove is

aligned with the top of the tube socket, and tighten the

adjustment knob so the handle does not move.

Tires – There are two pneumatic tires on the front of the

vehicle, and two no-flat casters on the rear. The front

tire size is 13x5.00-6 and has an inflatable tube inside.

The rear tire size is 4.10x3.50-4 and it is a non-flat caster

wheel.

Check the tire air pressure often and do not exceed the

maximum tire pressure of 30 PSI. Always ensure both

tires have the same pressure. Improperly inflated tires

will affect the load capacity and handling.

OPERATING (Cont’d)

Brake System – The brake system consists of a pair of

hydraulically operated disc brakes which are

mechanically actuated by a brake hand lever. The

braking force is set at the factory, however after

extended use it may be necessary to adjust it. To adjust

the braking force, tighten the brake cable by extending

the adjusting nut on the brake handle.

Never operate a machine that has a braking problem.

Contact the dealer or a qualified brake mechanic if the

problem cannot be remedied yourself.

Avoid using the machine in wet or damp environments

as this will affect braking. Always test for proper brake

operation prior to using the machine.

Drivetrain – The drivetrain consists of a DC powered

drive motor, a speed reduction gearbox, and a

differential gear. This system is adjusted at the factory

and should not need repair or adjustment. The speed

reduction gearbox can be disengaged and engaged by

shifting the drive lever mounted on the left side of the

rear frame. Disengaging the drive will allow the machine

to be pushed manually.

Do not engage or disengage the drive while the machine

is on. This may damage the drive motor or the speed

reduction gearbox. Always stop the machine, engage the

brake, and turn the power switch key into the off

position prior to shifting the drive lever.

3-Prong Connector

Battery – The battery is a rechargeable 24VDC, 24AH

Encapsulated Lead-Acid Battery which does not require

maintenance or adjustment. It may be removed from

the machine for charging by raising the lift table, engaging the safety chocks, unplugging the 3-

prong connector, and undoing the hook and pile strap. It is recommended that the battery be

charged in the machine, however if charging externally, the charging port and 3-prong connection

may also be removed from the machine. Contact the distributor if additional batteries or

connectors are desired. Batteries will naturally loose their charge while not in use for extended

periods, always charge the battery fully before use and every two months when in storage. The

battery life deteriorates over time and may need to be replaced when the output voltage becomes

too low. When this occurs, contact the distributor for a replacement battery.

8825796V 0.1

OPERATING (Cont’d)

Do not attempt to open or repair the battery. Use only original replacement parts by contacting the distributor.

Used batteries should be disposed of properly, contact the local government for information regarding

disposal.

POISON - CAUSES SEVERE BURNS

The battery electrolyte contains sulfuric acid. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing.

To prevent accidents, neutralize excess acid with baking soda and thoroughly rinse the area with water.

In case of:

SKIN CONTACT: rinse with water, remove and wash wetted clothing.

INHALATION OF ACID MIST: inhale fresh air, seek advice of a medical doctor.

CONTACT WITH THE EYES: rinse under running water for several minutes, seek immediate medical

attention.

SWALLOWING or INGESTION: drink large quantities of milk or water, followed by milk of magnesia,

vegetable oil, raw beaten eggs, or swallow activated carbon, do not induce vomiting. Call a poison

control center or doctor immediately.

Charger – The charger operates with an input voltage

between 100VAC and 240VAC, and either 50 or 60 Hz

without needing to adjust. Its output is 29VDC, 3.5A.

The charger should not be used to charge other

products. Doing so may result in damage to the

charger or the other product.

To use the charger, plug the charger output cable into

the charging port on the machine, then plug the charger

AC cable into a suitable AC receptacle. The charge

indicator light will illuminate RED when the battery is

charging, and will illuminate GREEN when the battery is fully charged. Allow at least 8 hours to fully

charge a battery. If the lamp fails to illuminate, or if the charge indicator light does not turn GREEN

after 12 hours, unplug the AC cable and check to see if the battery or charger needs replacement.

Loading the lift table – When loading the lift table, ensure the load is evenly distributed and

centered. Failure to center the load may cause the machine to be unbalanced and it may tip over.

The table rails are there to help prevent a load from shifting. If tiedown straps are used, be sure they

will not bind between the frame and table. Always remove any tiedown straps prior to lifting.

Table rails – The table rails are to prevent objects from sliding off of the table. Always replace the

rails when driving the truck. Do not place items on top of the rails, and be sure that the weight of

the load is not directly on the rails since this may cause the rails to bend or cause damage.

Safety Chocks – On the left and right sides of the scissors there are two safety chocks which should

be lowered prior to any maintenance or repair. Once these are lowered into place, lower the table

until it stops and so that the chocks are engaged with the main frame. To disengage the chocks, raise

the table to its maximum height and return the chocks to the upright position.
