- Never move onto a foot bridge, floor or freight lift, without being certain that they are prescribed for the weight and size of the
platform to be loaded and without having checked that they are in sound working order.
- Be careful in the area of loading bays, trenches, scaffolding, soft land and manholes.
- Ensure that the ground under the wheels and/or stabilisers is firm and stable before raising the basket. If necessary, place
suitable chocks under the stabilisers.
- Do not attempt any operations outside the plarform’s capabilities.
- Ensure that the materials on the platform (pipes, cables, containers, etc ...) cannot slip off and fall. Do not heap up these
materials to the pint where you have to step over them.
If the basket must remain stationary over a structure for a long period, there is a risk that the basket will rest on this
structure because of the oil cooling in the cylinders or a minor leak in the cylinder locking system.
To eliminate this risk :
- Regularly check the distance between the basket and the structure and re-adjust if necessary.
- If possible use the platform at an oil temperature as close as possible to ambient temperature.
- In the case of work near aerial lines, ensure that the safety distance is sufficient between the working area of the platform and
the aerial line.
You must consult your local electrical agency. You could be electrocuted or seriously injured if you operate or park
the platform too close to power cables.
If the platform comes into contact with electric wires, press the Emergency Stop button. If you can, jump from the
basket without simultaneously being in contact with the basket and the ground.
If not, call for help, wam people not to touch the basket and to switch off the power supply to the wires or have it
switched off.
- It is forbidden to use the lifting platform close to electrical power lines;
observe the safety distances.
