The MEWP can be loaded and unloaded from a truck in three ways:

• Move truck to a safe loading/unloading location and properly park
vehicle.
• Make sure that any other assisting personnel is at a safe distance.
• Stabilize the Sup19 following the procedures described in
paragraph 4.4.2.
• If lift is loaded on a low bed truck, it may be possible to unload lift
directly from bed using the lift’s outriggers, provided truck bed is a
standard 102” wide (2592 mm). Untie any straps or chains FIRST.
DO NOT USE OUTRIGGERS TO LIFT TRUCK BODY.
OUTRIGGER PISTONS WILL BE DAMAGED. CMC/All ACCESS

HYDRAULIC PISTONS OR OUTRIGGERS DAMAGED DUE TO
CARELESSNESS. OUTRIGGERS ARE DESIGNED TO ONLY

• Lower outriggers and lift MEWP from truck bed. Drive truck from
under lift. Lower lift to ground. To load lift onto truck chassis,
reverse procedure. Be careful NOT to strike outriggers with truck
bed. Use spotter to spot and watch the procedure – from position
