Description
Mobile scaffold consisting of work platform with drive and steering unit mounted on supporting structure with running gear (rollers). The serial number is stamped on both the front side of the platform, as also listed in the manual and on the invoice.
Risk
null As a result of failure of the worm gear drive unit, power transmission between the motor and the drive pinion is interrupted. When the operator continues to keep a movement button pressed, the service brake fails to engage. As the platform descends, although the emergency brake grippers engage, the fastening bolts of the gripper and counter support shear off suddenly, causing the platform to drop unchecked to the floor. The product doesn't comply with the Machinery Directive.
