UNSAFE JOBSITE HAZARDS
• Do not operate the machine on
surfaces, edges or potholes that
cannot bear the weight of the
machine. Raise or extend the
platform only when the machine is
on firm, flat ground.
• Do not use the tilt alarm as a
horizontal indicator. The tilt alarm
on the platform will sound only
when the machine is heavily tilted.
• If the tilt alarm sounds while lifting
the platform, be very careful when
lowering the platform. Do not
change the level or limit switch.
• Running speed should not exceed
0.8 km/h (0.5 mph) when the
platform rises.
• If the machine can be used
outdoors, never operate it during
strong winds or gusts. Do not lift

the platform when the wind speed
exceeds 12.5 m/s (18 mph). If the
wind speed exceeds 12.5 m/s (18
mph) after the platform is lifted,
fold the platform and do not
continue to operate the machine.
• Never travel on uneven terrain or
unstable surfaces or in other
dangerous conditions when
raising the platform.
• When the machine retracts, be
careful and slow down when the
machine is moving on uneven
terrain, crushed stone, unstable
or smooth surfaces, steep slopes
and near cave entrances.
• Do not drive or lift the machine on
slopes, steps or vaulted surfaces
that exceed the maximum
climbing capacity of the machine.
Before or during machine operation, check the possible
hazards on the jobsite and beware of the restrictions
within the environment, including flammable and
explosive gas/dust.
