Safety Precautions (Continued)
Know and understand the safety precautions before going on to next section.
• DO NOT exceed the rated capacity of the aerial
platform. Do make sure the load is evenly distrib-
uted on the platform.
• DO NOT attempt to free a snagged platform with
lower controls until personnel are removed from
the platform.
• DO NOT position the aerial platform against an-
other object to steady the platform.
• DO NOT place materials on the guardrails or ma-
terials that exceed the confines of the guardrails
unless approved by Skyjack.
WARNING
Entering and exiting the aerial platform
should only be done using the three
points of contact.
• Use only equipped access openings.
• Enter and exit only when the aerial
platform is in the fully retracted position.
• Do use three points of contact to enter and exit
the platform. Enter and exit the platform from the
ground only. Face the aerial platform when enter-
ing or exiting the platform.
• Three points of contact means that two hands
and one foot or one hand and two feet are in con-
tact with the aerial platform or the ground at all
times during entering and exiting.
WARNING
An operator should not use any aerial
platform that:
• does not appear to be working properly.
• has been damaged or appears to have worn or
missing parts.
• has alterations or modifications not approved by
the manufacturer.
• has safety devices which have been altered or
disabled.
• has been tagged or blocked out for non-use or
repair.
Failure to avoid these hazards could
result in death or serious injury.
Jobsite Inspection
• Do not use in hazardous locations.
• Perform a thorough jobsite inspection prior to
operating the aerial platform, to identify potential
hazards in your work area.
• Be aware of moving equipment in the area. Take
appropriate actions to avoid collision.
