Most Important Warning Lights
Overload / Capacity
Common causes
- Lifting a load heavier than rated capacity
- Incorrect load distribution
- Faulty load sensor
What to do
Immediately lower the load and verify it is within the RX50-18’s rated capacity. If the warning persists without a heavy load, have the load sensor checked by a Still technician.
Battery / Charging
Common causes
- Battery deeply discharged
- Charger not connected
- Faulty battery or charging circuit

Cease operation and connect the RX50-18 to its charger. If the battery does not charge, inspect connections and contact Still service for battery diagnostics.
Hydraulic System
Common causes
- Low hydraulic oil level
- Hydraulic leak
- Overheated hydraulic fluid
What to do
Check and top up hydraulic oil if necessary. Inspect for leaks around hoses and cylinders; if overheating occurs, allow the system to cool before resuming work.
Brake System
Common causes
- Worn brake pads
- Brake fluid leak
- Malfunctioning brake switch
What to do
Inspect the RX50-18’s brakes for wear and leaks. Address any faults immediately to ensure safe operation, and contact service if repairs are needed.
