SAFETY
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARDS
• Always maintain a safe distance
from power lines and electrical
equipment in accordance with
applicable government
regulations and see Table 3-1 ,
page 3-2.
• Consider platform and boom
movement, wire swinging or
drooping, beware of strong winds
or gusts, and do not operate the
machine when there is lightning
or heavy rain.
• If the machine comes into contact
with live wires, keep away from
the machine. Personnel on the
ground or on the platform must
not touch or operate the machine
until the power is switched off.
• Do not use the machine as a
ground wire during welding and
polishing operations.

TIPPING HAZARDS AND
RATED LOAD
Maximum rated load bearing capacity of the
platform:200kg (440lb)
TIPPING HAZARDS
• Personnel, equipment and
materials on the platform must
not exceed the maximum load
capacity.
• Only raise or extend the mast
when the machine is on solid,
level ground.
• Select only the low speed when
driving the machine on a slope.
• Do not use the tilt alarm as a level
indicator. The tilt alarm on the
platform will sound only if the
machine is heavily tilted.
• Carefully lower the platform and
move the machine to a firm level
surface. Do not rotate the
turntable while the lowering the
mast. Any unauthorized
modification of the level or limit
switches is strictly forbidden.
• Do not drive faster than 0.6 km/h
(0.37 mph) when the platform is
raised.
• When the platform is raised, the
machine cannot travel on uneven
terrain, unstable surfaces or in
other dangerous conditions.
• Do not operate the machine
during strong winds or gusts, and
do not increase the surface area
of the platform or load. Increasing
the area exposed to the wind will
reduce the stability of the
machine.
• When the machine is on rough
ground, with gravel or other
uneven surfaces, or near holes
and steep slopes, maintain a
minimum distance of 0.6m (2ft)
and reduce the speed.
• When on the platform do not push
and pull objects outside of it. The
maximum lateral force allowed
is:400 N (90 lbf).
• Tow the machine only from the
tiedown/lifting points on the
chassis.
• Never use the mast or platorm to
stablize or support any objects
outside of the machine.
