Check the Battery - DC Models
Proper battery condition is essential to good machine performance and safe operation. Improper fluid levels or damaged cables and connections can result in component damage and hazardous conditions.
Electrocution hazard. Contact with hot or live circuits could result in death or serious injury. Remove all rings, watches and other jewelry.
Bodily injury hazard. Batteries contain acid. Avoid spilling or contacting battery acid. Neutralize battery acid spills with baking soda and water.
Perform this test after fully charging the batteries.
1Put on protective clothing and eye wear.
2Remove the battery vent caps.
3Check the battery acid level. If needed, replenish with distilled water to the bottom of the battery fill tube. Do not overfill.
4Install the vent caps.
Check the Hydraulic Oil Level - AC and DC Models

1Be sure the platform is fully lowered.
2Check the sight gauge on the side of the hydraulic reservoir.
Result: The hydraulic oil level should be visible in the middle of the sight gauge. Do not overfill.
