Abstract: Light adjustment apparatuses and methods for adjusting light assemblies are disclosed herein. One embodiment can include a light holder having a housing, a mounting bracket coupled to the housing, a support member rotatably attached to the mounting bracket, and a lock to restrict the mounting bracket from rotating relative to the support member about an axis of rotation. In another embodiment, a method is provided for adjusting a light assembly. The method includes removing a lock from a first lock receiver in a mounting bracket and a second lock receiver in a support member; rotating the mounting bracket and a light assembly attached to the mounting bracket as a unit so that the light is aimed at a selected orientation; aligning a third lock receiver in the mounting bracket with the second lock receiver in the support member; and placing the lock in the third lock receiver of the mounting bracket and the second lock receiver of the support member.

Abstract: A trailer personnel lift (20) with a level-sensing system (69). The level-sensing system (69) provides information to a level-indicator display (72) that indicates which outriggers (34) of the trailer personnel lift (20) need to be lowered. Upon lowering of the designated outriggers (34), the signal for the outrigger (34) changes so as to indicate that the outrigger (34) no longer needs lowering. The outriggers (34) are capable of locking into at least three positions, a first position (40A) in which the outrigger (34) extends substantially horizontal to the surface upon which the personnel lift (20) is to be located, a second position (48A) in which the outrigger (34) extends substantially vertically from the base, and a third position (46A) that is intermediate of the first and second positions, the third position being selected so that the outriggers (34) may be stabilized in the third position (46A) on an upward slope.

Abstract: A personnel lift (20) having adjustable side-to-side shim assemblies (38a-d) used in conjunction with a series of slide blocks (39, 40) in the mast of the personnel lift. The mast of the personnel lift includes a number of nested columns (24a-e) that extend to lift a person and an aerial work platform (22) to a desired height. The shim assemblies (38a-d) and slide blocks (39, 40) are used to maintain the nested columns (24a-e) in proper alignment, and the shim assemblies (38a-d) are adjustable to account for wear. The adjustable features of the shim assemblies (38a-d) are accessible when the columns are fully assembled, which allows the shim assemblies (38a-d) to be adjusted without requiring that the mast be disassembled.
