10.7 General description

The lift serves as a mobile work platform and as a pole
holder as it is equipped with a pole grab. The platform
may carry two people with a load to a total weight of max
200 kg. The lift is controlled from the cabin or the platform
by means of a portable radio transmitter.
The lift's main constituents are:
E A. Slew bearing.
B. Lifting column.
C. Main arm.
C D. Six hydraulic extensions
F E. One manual extension (not used together with insu-
D lated boom).
B F. Work platform.
G LWI (Live-line Work Insulator) equipment kit:
A G. Insulated boom
H H. Work platform for LWI
The lift is located above the base machine's left rear wheel.
An automatic hydraulic levelling system is used to keep
the work platform horizontal.

8
An automatic torque and motion restriction system is used
to make sure that the base machine and lift are not at risk of
tipping over or becoming overloaded.
The lift can be supplemented with a LWI (Live-line Work
Insulator) equipment kit for work with energised compo-
nents. The LWI equipment is tested and approved for 46 kV
to earth. It is the insulated boom that forms the insulating
barrier between the lift arm and work platform. The special
work platform for LWI equipment is of non-conductive ma-
terial but its yoke (the device that attaches the platform to
the lift arm) is made of aluminium; it is therefore only the
insulated boom that provides the insulating property.

10.8 Intended use

The following items are intended to show how the lift may
be used:
• The lift is intended for use as a mobile work platform and
allows access to areas up to 22 metres above the ground.
• When used with the optional pole grab, the lift may also
be used to position a pole vertically while also digging or
backfilling around the pole.
• Along with the optional LWI equipment, the lift meets the
standard EN 61057:1993 and is therefore approved for a
person in the work platform to perform work on compo-
nents energised up to 46 kV.

10.9 Wrong use

The following items are intended to show how the lift may
not be used:
• The lift may not be used as lifting equipment for hanging
loads.
• The lift may not be used fitted with a grapple for lifting
objects.
• No tool may be connected to the lift other than those
approved in this instruction manual.
• People may not be transported in the platform if the
remote control (transmitter) is not in its proper place in
the work platform.
• Approved tools may not be used in any manner other
than as described in this instruction manual.
• The lift may not be used in any way other than as described
under the heading Intended use.

ating unit is activated.

17
 20.7 When operating the lift

Person lift
20.7.1
The lift may not be used for lifting persons at wind speeds
above 10 m/s.
20.7.2
When lifting persons, the base machine must be stationary
and parked stably on a supporting surface. Ensure proper
ground contact by both support legs to allow the maximum
working area for the lift. Base machine position permitting,
rest both the backhoe and loader on the ground to obtain as
low a centre of gravity as possible.
20.7.3
When lifting persons, make sure the work platform's floor,
handles and handrail are free from oil, rubbish, snow and
ice or anything that increases the risk of slipping or tripping.
Also note that snow and ice can add significant weight.
20.7.4
When lifting persons, the lift must be operated from the
platform. The lift may only be operated from elsewhere in
emergencies.
20.7.5
When lifting persons, the platform safety gate must always
be closed and locked.
20.7.6
When lifting persons, the radio control transmitter must
always be placed in its holder in the platform.
20.7.7
Where applicable when lifting persons, fall protection must
always be worn and attached to the eye intended on the
platform.
20.7.8
When lifting persons, the platform must always be raised
from the ground before it is slewed.
20.7.9
When lifting persons, the platform occupants must remain
standing on the platform floor. Do not leave the raised work
platform. Do not climb on the work platform handrail. Steps
or stools may not be used in a raised work platform.

18
20.7.10
Objects may not be dropped to the ground from a raised
work platform. Bear in mind that falling objects can injure
people and damage lift/base machine components.
20.7.11
Bear in mind that certain works from the platform such
as pressure washing and blasting can generate significant
thrust. Do not exceed the platform's permissible lateral load.
20.7.12
Bear in mind that when you step out of the platform it may
rebound a little if it is not first placed firmly on the ground.

19
 20.8 Radio remote control
20.8.1
Make sure the transmitter battery is charged before operating
the lift.
20.8.2
When lifting persons, a fully charged battery (emergency
battery) must be taken aboard the platform in case the
regular battery discharges. The purpose of the emergency
battery is to allow a return to ground level to charge the
discharged battery or get a charged battery.
20.8.3
Shield the battery terminals on a loose battery against
short-circuiting. Do not keep batteries in a tool box or in
your pocket; a key chain or a tool can short-circuit the battery.
20.8.4
The following applies if the transmitter must be left tempo-
rarily unattended:
• Switch off the lift equipment (key switch in the cab)
• Switch off the transmitter
20.8.5
The following applies, if the operator can no longer fully
see the machine and its risk area:
• Switch off the lift equipment (key switch in the cab)
• Switch off the transmitter
20.8.6
Make sure the identification plate on the transmitter is
always legible.
20.8.7
The remote control may not be used if any part of the system
is damaged.
20.8.8
Before starting work with the machine, check that the emer-
gency stop is working correctly. Start the machine's engine
using the transmitter and press the emergency stop button
on the transmitter unit. The engine should stop immediately.
Turn the emergency stop button clockwise to be able to start
the engine again.
20.8.9
Always operate the machine in a way that poses no danger,
even if radio transmission suffers interference.

20
20.8.10
In the event of a fault, an emergency or a technical fault in
the remote control system, switch off the remote control
equipment immediately until the fault has been traced and
repaired. The remote control system may only be repaired
by a Huddig AB approved service technician. Contact
a Huddig dealer for more information.

20.9 Emergency operation

20.9.1
Use of the lift's emergency operating system overrides safety
features such as the computerised control system, motion
restriction system and similar. Also bear in mind that if a
fault has arisen in the base machine's regular control sys-
tem and it is necessary to bring the platform down using
the emergency operating system, the fault can be such that
it affects the emergency operating system adversely. Stop
emergency operation immediately if you notice that any
function does not behave as expected. Evacuation from the
work platform may then need to be arranged in a different
way, e.g. with abseiling equipment or with the aid of an-
other mobile work platform. Make sure alternative action
plans are included in the risk analysis prior to the work con-
cerned. Make sure suitable communications equipment is
available when you are in the work platform.

20.10 Mode switch

20.10.1
The key to the switch for changing between cabin operating
mode and basket operating mode is securely attached to the
transmitter with a wire. In cabin operating mode, the trans-
mitter must be present in the cabin and no person may be
present in the work platform. If the key comes loose or is
removed from the wire or the transmitter, it is to be regarded
as a system fault and the lift may not be used as a person lift
until the fault is remedied.

21
 20.11 LWI equipment
20.11.1
The LWI equipment is certified together with the lift and
base machine as a single unit. This means the specific LWI
equipment may not be used with any other lift or base ma-
chine. If the lift is certified for LWI equipment, it will be in-
dicated on the LWI plate located above the CE plate on the
lift post. Refer to heading "LWI name plate (optional)" on
page 11. It states switch configuration the LWI equipment
is approved with.
20.11.2
Work with energised components may not be carried out in
the case of precipitation or fog.
20.11.3
Work with energised components may not be carried out
unless the insulation boom has been cleaned.
20.11.4
When the insulating boom is not in use or is stowed in its
transit position on the lift, its protective sheath must always
be in place over the boom.
20.11.5
Electrification Hazard. Work with energised components
may not be carried out if the coating on the insulating boom
is damaged. Over time, damage that penetrates the insulat-
ing boom's coating may lead to moisture entering between
the surface finish and the load-bearing part of the insulating
boom. This can lead to an impaired insulation ability resulting
in an increased risk of electrification.
20.11.6
Crush Hazard. Observe caution when operating the insu-
lating boom when it must be extended or retracted between
its transit and work positions. To minimise the hazard, two
people must be used to position and secure the insulating
boom in its respective positions. Make sure the arm system
is at as shallow an angle as possible to minimise the effort
necessary to retract the insulating boom to its transit posi-
tion and to bear its weight when it is extended to its working
position.
20.11.7
The space inside the insulating boom must be dry in order
to maintain the boom’s insulating properties. To maintain a
dry atmosphere, the space inside the boom is provided with
a moisture absorbent in the form of silica gel balls. As long
as the balls are orange in colour, they indicate an ability
to absorb more moisture. When the balls begin to become

22
saturated by moisture and are unable to absorb more, they
start turning green; the absorbent (the balls) must then be
replaced.
20.11.8
The insulating boom must not be handled or stored such
that the soft insulation material is stressed in any way. Only
put loads on metal attachments when lifting and storing.
See figure 20.11.8.
20.11.9
When working on energised components from the platform,
a means of communication between the person on the plat-
form and the person on the ground must be available and in
full working order.
20.11.10
Because the LWI equipment's work platform is not pro-
vided with an emergency operation panel, the third person
must be available on the ground in case emergency oper-
ation is necessary. Make sure this person has a sufficient
understanding of how the emergency operation equipment
functions and is used before operations with a person in the
work platform.

20.12 Spare parts

20.12.1
If any part of the lift must be replaced, it must be with gen-
uine spare parts to ensure safety and function. Non-genuine
spare parts are not permitted.
20.11.8

30.2.2
The term basket operating mode refers to operations
controlled using the remote control in its stand in the
work platform and with the mode switch key in the basket
operating mode position. (The key is removable from the
basket operating mode position). Basket operating mode
limits the maximum speed of all hydraulic functions on the
lift. Basket operating mode does not allow operation of the
grab function. When basket operating mode is activated, Basket operating mode activated
people may be present in the work platform provided that
the remote control is properly located in its stand in the
platform. The base machine's other hydraulic functions are

this range, run the platform manually to the correct angle.

33
 Indicator lamp/Buzzer
The work platform levelling system is equipped with an in-
dicator lamp and a buzzer to inform the operator of various
levelling system statuses. The indicator lamp and buzzer
are linked consistently insofar as if the indicator lamp lights
up, the buzzer sounds and vice versa.
Standard and LWI work platforms
The following applies to both the standard aluminium work
platform and the LWI platform.
30.7.11
Activation signal When the levelling system is started,
a long audible signal is emitted (approx one second) to
announce that the system is activated.
30.7.12
If a recurring short signal (approx 1/10 s per second) is
heard following the activation signal, it indicates a fault on
the levelling safety system. The work platform may not be
used as a person lift before the fault is remedied.
LWI work platform
The following only applies to the LWI platform. The levelling
system for the LWI platform is battery operated. Ideally,
the battery should be fully charged before the platform is
put to use.
30.7.13
A battery status signal follows immediately after the acti-
vation signal. Between one and five short signals, where
one signal indicates low battery voltage and five indicate a
fully charged battery. If battery voltage drops below a given
level during operation, a short signal will be emitted every
minute to indicate low battery voltage.
30.7.14
When the work platform is in its transit position (70-155°
basket inclination), a short signal is emitted every 10 seconds
to announce that the levelling system is activated. Remember
to switch off the levelling system during transit.

30.8.1
Straighten up the machine on a flat, supporting surface.
The lift post may tilt at a maximum of 5° from vertical.
30.8.2
If the ground is sufficiently flat, you may set up the machine
without deploying the support legs. However, when used as
a person lift, the lift control system will only allow a very
limited work area in order to ensure machine stability.
30.8.3
Deploy the machine's support legs to allow the maximum
working area. When the support legs are properly in contact
with the ground, the symbols L and R for the left and right LR
support legs will be shown in green in the IQAN-MDL.
Symbols for correct support leg
The support legs can also be used to bring the machine to ground contact
a horizontal position. Make sure that both front wheels are
in contact with the ground. If ground incline is greater than
can be compensated by the support legs, the area can be
prepared to provide a sufficiently horizontal surface.
Base machine position permitting, rest both the backhoe
and loader on the ground to obtain as low a centre of gravity
as possible and achieve greater stability for the lift.
30.8.4
Apply the base machine's parking brake.

30.12 Transport/Work mode

Standard/LWI Work Platform

When moving the base machine inside the current site, there
is no need to place the lift in any special position. However,
the machine should be moved gently and carefully so as not
to overload the lift's various parts.
When moving the base machine over longer distances, the
lift must be placed in the transit position. This is done as
follows:
• Operate basket levelling manually such that the basket as-
sumes a position parallel to the yoke holding the basket.
• Lock the basket manually in this position.
• Move the lift over the roof of the base machine to its end
position and carefully lower it into its transport bracket.
Transit position can be reached through clockwise or anti-
clockwise operation, but to reduce strain on hoses and wiring
as far as possible, we recommend clockwise movement to
transit position.

When the insulating boom is in its working position with
30.13.1 the work platform installed, the base machine may not be
transported but may only transit the worksite using extreme
caution. In the case of base machine transport, the equip-
ment must either be fully removed and shipped using an-
other vehicle, or the work platform must be removed and
the insulating boom stowed in its transit position. The work
platform can then be mounted in the lift's regular bracket on
the manual extension.
