Stamm Signalier Model T-528 / T-529 Platform Lifts

SPECIFICATIONS DESCRIPTION

Platform Lifts These specifications describe the minimum requirements for One (1) Signalier Lift Model T-528/29 “Non-Insulated” or “Insulated” with Cab and Chassis or equal.

This equipment shall be new, of current manufacture, a production model, and must meet all State and Federal safety standards in effect at the time of installation. Any items appearing in the manufacturer’s regular published specifications furnished by the bidder are assumed to be included in the “Bidders Proposal”. Any additions, deletions or variations from manufacturer’s regular published specifications must be outlined in an attached letter.

Minor deviations from these specifications which do not impair comparative functional equivalency will be accepted.

ITEM I/D

GENERAL	The Truck with Lift shall be designed for crews to reach, install and repair Traffic signals and signage.
PLATFORM MAKE:	Signalier Model T-528/29 or equal
ARTICULATING ARM:	Lower arm is attached to base plate which is directed to frame. There are two (2) lift cylinders, one on each arm in which raises the unit to its full height giving a 29’ working height. Plus the articulating arm will raise or lower the platform to either side, outward beyond the base plate 6’, then by hydraulic pressure the platform will traverse out an additional 5’ thus covering a total distance over either side of 11 feet.
TRAVERSING UNIT:	The platform shall traverse from side to side by a hydraulic powered assembly. Permanently lubricates UHMW (ultra high molecular weight polyethylene) shall be used to allow the ease of platform movements. A Char-Lynn hydraulic motor shall be coupled to the drive assembly to traverse the platform on gear and 4’ to each side traverse or 5’ with #50 chain drive.
STORED TRAVEL HEIGHT:	From ground to top of platform railings is approximately 10’ 6”.
PLATFORM ASSEMBLY	The work platform shall measure 48” x 96” or 60” x 96” constructed of aluminum with a 42” high side railing. A swing gate with latch shall be provided at the rear of the platform. The safety shall consist of a top railing and a midway railing to be constructed of 1 ¼” schedule 40 aluminum pipe bent to a 6” radius corner as to create a no weld corner throughout the platform. The top rail is a continuous length bent on a 6” radius on all corners, no weld on top of corners. The door will be one continuous length bent on 6” radius on top and at bottom a straight 4” kick plate. The latch to be counter balanced one way. The floor is constructed of 3/16” aluminum diamond plate welded to a 2” x 2” x 1/8” frame 48” x 96” or 60” x 96” with cross braces on 24” center welded to a 6” ship channel with gussets on 24” center for support or flex of channel. The upper controls shall mount at the front center at the top rail.
PLATFORM CAPACITY	1,500 lbs. Up to 5’ outward beyond lift base plate on either side of truck, via use of articulated arms. When hydraulic traverse the platform floor is beyond 5’ over either side of base plate, then the platform capacity is reduced to 750 lbs.
HYDRAULIC TANK:	20-gallon capacity with oil level sight glass and vented fill cap with strainer screen. Section line filter 100 mesh and 3/4'” 10 Micron return line filter will be tank mounted or equal
MAXIMUM OPERATING PRESSURE	2,100 PSI with hydraulic pressure relief valves at platform operating station and at the ground operating station. A pressure gauge will be installed at inlet of ground station hydraulic valves.
HYDRAULIC POWER	An electric clutch pump, engine mounted, belt driven will be provided or PTO pump output of 5-7 GPM.
ELEVATION CYLINDERS	Two (2), one on each articulating arm, double acting. Each cylinder is equipped with a load holding check valve and an adjustable flow control valve for controlled speed of platform.
HYDRAULIC CONTROLS	Both on ground and platform operating stations there shall be full hydraulic valves with self-centering automatic return to neutral position handles. The platform control station will have keyed engine start/stop ignition switch and a switch to turn the clutch pump on and off if used.
GROUND OPERATING STATION	Controls will be on the left side of vehicle at base of lift unit. There will be five (5) valves at the station. First valve: controls left side stabilizer Second valve: controls the right stabilizer Third valve: controls the traversing platform. Fourth valve: controls the lower lift arm. Fifth valve: controls the upper lift arm.
PLATFORM OPERATING STATION	There will be three (3) hand operated hydraulic valves to control the Platform. First valve: will operate hydraulic traversing of the platform. Second valve: controls the lower lift arm. Third valve: controls the upper lift arm. Control valves are to be mounted inside hand railings at front of platform. A formed solid guard will be installed around valves.
EMERGENCY LOWERING	12 Volt DC power unit at the platform and ground level.
HYDRAULIC STABILIZERS	Two (2), one on each side of truck behind cab-forward of lift base plate mounted to truck frame. Each stabilizer will operate via a 2 ½” bore hydraulic cylinder equipped with a telescopic leg which has a self leveling foot plate on the bottom. Stabilizers are to extend straight down to ground and be no wider than the widest point of the widest point of the vehicle. Each stabilizer cylinder will be equipped with a double acting pilot pressure operating holding valve.
TRAVEL LOCKS	A travel lock will be installed on left side to secure both arms in lock position for traveling.
LIGHTS	All control switches shall be installed in dash.
LABELS	All switches and controls shall have permanent labels indicating function/position, A dash mounted travel clearance decal will be installed. A permanent label will be attached to the hydraulic tank to show type of oil to be used in system.
