• Inspection and controls before start-up.
• Risks related to the use of the machine near overhead obstacles, other moving machines,
holes, obstacles on the ground and tilt.
• Risks related to the use of the machine near conductors or powered electrical equipment.
• Use of an approved fall-protection mechanism.
• Safety requirements related to a task or specific use of the machine.
2.1.2 Inspection of the workplace
• Before using the machine, the operator must take precautions to avoid any risk in the
workplace:
- Note the hazardous locations in the working area.
- Note the overhead obstacles, the electrical lines, overhead cranes, cranes, or other
equipment.
- Note on the ground the presence of holes, bumps, tilt, debris, and coatings likely to
hide holes or other dangers.
- Check the ground can support the wheel load and/or outrigger load.
• The machine must only be used in well-ventilated premises.
• The machine must be used with sufficient ambient lighting.
• The platform must not be raised if the machine is on the platform or trailer of a truck, on a
train, a ship or any other mobile or non-stabilised structure.
• Do not operate the machine in hazardous environments unless approved for that purpose
by ATN.
• DO NOT use the machine in presence of electromagnetic fields (radar, high voltage
currents…). This could damage the machine’s electronic components.
2.2 TIPPING HAZARDS
• Never exceed the work platform's load capacity. Distribute the load evenly across the platform
floor.
• Keep the load inside the work platform. Do not suspend a load from any part of the platform or
lifting structure. Do not place a load on the guard rail.
• Check that the ground can support the maximum wheel load and/or outrigger load.
• Do not drive the machine on slopes or tilts exceeding the maximum admissible incline.
• Do not raise the platform or move with the platform on inclines, hilly or loose surfaces. Always
make sure that the machine is on a firm and even surface before raising the work platform or
moving with the platform raised.
Zebra 16 Stab : Always ensure the outrigger pads are in firm contact with the ground before
raising the work platform. Do not use the outriggers on loose irregular or uneven grounds.
• Keep the machine a good distance from holes, bumps, tilt, debris, and coatings likely to hide
holes or other dangers on the ground.
• Do not raise the work platform if the wind speed exceeds 12.5m/s (45km/h).
