About this manual

This manual describes the safe operation and maintenance

of the Transit Trolley..

The Transit Trolley is used for internal transportation of

boards in construction. Transit Trolley is motorized and can

transport a stack of plasterboard

to a given location on the building site, delivering the

plasterboard horizontally onto trestles. The Transit Trolley

can be driven up and down inclines of up to 7,5° (degrees),

but must not otherwise be used on sloping surfaces.

CAUTION! Use only an approved

battery charger

Recharging

The plug for charging the Transit Trolley’s 24-volt battery is

found on the left side of the chassis in front of the hydraulic

cylinder.

• Read the battery Indicator (e) on the control handle.

Recharge the battery when the indicator shows “half full”.

Charging takes approximately 8 hours.

• It may take up to few seconds before it goes

into “Charge Mode”.

• The Transit Trolley cannot be operated during recharging.

• After disconnecting the charging plug it may take up to

few seconds before the charging mode disappears.CAUTION!

Note that there is oil in

the cylinder when the

platform is tilted. The oil

level in the reservoir

rises when the platform

is lowered. It must

therefore not be filled

completely

Hydraulic oil

Filling hydraulic oil can only take place when the hydraulic

bed is fully tilted:

• Remove the cap with the red top and fill to between MIN

and MAX or unitl you can see the oil in the inspection glass.

OIL TYPE: Shell Tellus 32

Lubrication Lubricate all pivot joints by pumping grease in all grease-

nipples at a six-month interval, or as required.

• Adhering to service intervals.

CAUTION! Never use a pressure

washer to clean

the trolley • The law requires that the machine must undergo an annual

inspection documented in the Transit Trolley operational

records.

• Repairs should only be performed by authorized persons.

Make sure that any hydraulic pressure is equalized before.

Cleaning

The Transit Trolley should be kept clean with water and

mild detergent.

• Never use a pressure washer to clean the Transit Trolley!

Lifting the Transit Trolley

The Transit Trolley weighs 350 kg. and must not be lifted

directly with a forklift. The Transit Trolley can be driven up

on a truck or dolly carefully if the ramp has a slope less than

7,5 degrees. Alternatively, this can also be carried out by

using a wire winch. The manoeuvre can cause entrapment.

Strap securely before shipment.

1. Approved lifting straps are fed through lifting lugs as shown.

2. Approved lifting straps should be placed under the chassis

as shown.

CAUTION! Do not lift with a forklift

CAUTION! Beware of wires
