F MAINTENANCE
2. Use and Maintenance of Battery ( DC Models)
When transporting the DC powered personnel lift, the battery casing and battery should be
detached from the rear of the machine to prevent damage to the battery casing.
To prepare the machine for use, install the outriggers, then load the battery box (including battery inside)
onto
To charge the battery, follow instructions located on the machine. When the charger indicator changes from
red to green, the battery is fully charged. Continue charging for about an hour or more, this will ensure
maximum performance of the battery.
If the charged battery has been used or left unused for a period of time, recharging is required, as prolonged
storage at low charge will result in reduced battery performance
Store the battery in a cool and dry area to reduce the loss of power during storage period.
An Absorbed Glass Matt (AGM) maintenance free battery is used. AGM batteries do not include fluid so
unlike Lead Acid batteries they not require the battery’s fluid level to be checked.
Check the battery and the terminals regularly to ensure they are secured tightly in position. Inspect the
insulation casing for worn spots, cracks or broken terminals and repair them immediately.
To connect the battery and the charger, set the power switch to the "OFF" position. Ensure that the positive
terminal on the battery is connected to the positive socket of the charger and vice versa. To commence
charging set the power switch to the “ON” position.
Charging must be carried out in a well-ventilated area, away from inflammable materials as charging may
result in sparks or flames, which may result in an explosion.
Ensure the connecting socket on the battery casing is properly maintained to avoid power
disruption.
Keep batteries fully charged when in storage. Prolonged storage at low charge will result in
reduced battery performance. Disconnect the battery from the machine prior to long term
storage. Store in a cool dry place.
The battery casing carrying the charger contains an ammeter, which indicates the charge
rate. All power usage should stop and the battery recharged, when the power discharge level
indicated by the ammeter reaches 70%. This is strongly recommended to ensure maximum
battery life.
WARNING
Do not charge batteries under direct sunlight or near heat generators.
Battery should be charged immediately after use. If battery is stored without recharging,
performance could deteriorate.
Avoid operating the battery below - 5°C (5°F) or above 50°C (122°F).
Batteries are heavy and should be handled accordingly.
Never disassemble a battery. Clean with moist soft cloth.
Never dispose of a battery into fire. Recycle all used batteries.
Do not short the battery terminals.

3. Flow Restrictor 4. Solenoid Valve
5. Oil Cylinder 6. Hydraulic Pump
7. Filter 8. Motor
9. Explosion relief valve 10. Oil Reservoir
Once the hydraulic pump’s motor is switched on, the pump will deliver a high pressure oil flow
into port P of the valve block (shown as dotted line). The unidirectional valve 1 allows the oil to
flow out via Port A and into the hydraulic cylinder. This raises the platform slowly. The relief
valve 2 is adjusted to by-pass oil when the rated capacity is reached. This prevents operation
beyond the pre-set capacity rating. When the operator calls for the platform to descend, solenoid
valve 4 is energized, oil from the hydraulic cylinder then flows back to the valve block via Port A
(The unidirectional valve 1 prevents oil flow through port P). Oil flow can only pass through
solenoid valve 4 onto the flow restrictor 3 and out of the valve block through Port 0 into the oil
reservoir 10. This allows the platform to descend slowly. Due to the pressure balancing design of
the valve block, the ascending and descending speed is not affected by the platform capacity
changes. (Refer Fig 6.1)
(B) UT58 Operating Principle schematic diagram
UT58 comprise of two set of hydraulic systems powered by
M1&M2 respectively and covers the two groups of masts.
M1 is the hydraulic motor which drives the lower four (4)
sets of masts, these 4 lower masts move in synchronism as
the 4 hydraulic cylinders rise. M2 is the hydraulics motor
which drives the upper (2) sets of masts powered by two
hydraulic cylinders.
Ascend control: – Depressing the ascend and power button,
starts the M1 motor driving the four (4) hydraulic cylinders
and the corresponding masts to its maximum position
governed by the limit switch. At this point, the M1 motor is
de-energized, and the M2 motor is energized. The M2 motor
drives the upper series of masts, until these reach their maximum position as defined by its limit
switch. This stops the M2 motor and the maximum platform height is attained.
Descend control: - Depressing the descend and power buttons, first energizes the lowering
hyraulic solenoid allowing the upper series of masts to descend. When this upper series of masts
reaches their lowest position as determined by the limit switch, the limit switch then energizes the
hydraulic solenoid for the lower series of masts, allowing these lower set of masts to lower to
their minimum position.

F MAINTENANCE
(C) Hydraulic System Maintenance
1. The specification of the hydraulic oil used is ISO VG32.
Depending on the frequency of use, the oil may require a
complete change once a year. Mixing of oil with other
fluids and the introduction of any other fluids into the oil
tank is strictly forbidden. Should the oil level fall below
normal operating level, the platform will not reach its
maximum height. In addition, the noise coming from the
hydraulic system during lifting of the platform will
increase and may sound abnormal. If this happens, top up
the oil tank with ISO VG32 hydraulic oil.
2. After using the manual descending emergency valve to lower the platform to its stored position,
please remember to turn the valve knob to its original closed position. The platform cannot be
raised normally unless this is carried out.
3. Do not adjust the hydraulic pressure setting or change any original hydraulic system parts
without obtaining the approval of the supplier of the machine.
4. If operating in continues cold store conditions (-35 degrees C), the use of a synthetic hydraulic
fluid S.A.E.0W is recommended.
NB: When the platform is loaded and raised to its highest point, momentarily press the platform
control’s “POWER” and “DOWN” buttons simultaneously to minimize the impact to the
machine of a change in hydraulic oil flow direction. Thereafter, fully engage these two buttons
to continue the descent.
