SAFETY
TIPPING HAZARDS
• When the platform is caught or
stuck or when other objects in the

troller to lower the platform. If you
intend to lower the platform with
the ground controller, you must
operate it only after all personnel
have left the platform.
WORK ENVIRONMENT
HAZARDS
UNSAFE JOBSITE HAZARDS
• Do not operate the machine on
surfaces, edges or potholes that
cannot bear the weight of the ma-
chine. Raise or extend the plat-
form only when the machine is on
firm, flat ground.
• Do not use the tilt alarm as a hori-
zontal 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 plat-
form rises.
• If the machine can be used out-
doors, never operate it during
strong winds or gusts. Do not lift
the platform when the wind speed
exceeds 12.5 m/s (28 mph). If the
wind speed exceeds 12.5 m/s (28
mph) after the platform is lifted,
fold the platform and do not con-
tinue to operate the machine.
• Do not use any device that may in-
crease the wind load on the
machine.
• Never travel on uneven terrain or
unstable surfaces or in other dan-
gerous conditions when raising
the platform.
• When the machine retracts, be
careful and slow down when the
machine is moving on uneven ter-
rain, 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 climb-
ing capacity of the machine.
Before or during machine operation, check the jobsite
for possible hazards and pay attention to the environ-
mental restrictions, including flammable and explosive
gas/dust. If the machine is to be used in any other appli-
cations, or by any other means, other than those
