SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Know and understand the safety precautions before going on to next section.
WARNING
Failure to heed the following safety pre-
cautions could result in tip over, falling,
crushing, or other hazards leading to
death or serious injury.
• KNOW all national, state/provincial and local
rules which apply to your MACHINE and JOB-
SITE.
• TURN the main power disconnect switch OFF
when leaving the machine unattended. Remove
the key to prevent unauthorized use of the aerial
platform.
• WEAR all the protective clothing and personal
safety devices issued to you or called for by job
conditions.
• DO NOT wear loose clothing,
dangling neckties, scarves,
rings, wristwatches or other
jewelry while operating this lift.
• AVOID entanglement with
ropes, cords or hoses.
• AVOID falling. Stay within the
boundaries of the guardrails.
• DO NOT raise the aerial plat-
form in windy or gusty condi-
tions.
• DO NOT increase the lateral
surface area of the platform.
Increasing the area exposed to
the wind will decrease machine
stability.
• DO NOT drive or elevate the
aerial platform if it is not on a
firm level surface. Do not drive
elevated near depressions
or holes of any type, loading
docks, debris, drop-offs and
surfaces that may affect the sta-
bility of the aerial platform.
• If operation in areas with
holes or drop-offs is abso-
lutely necessary, elevated
driving shall not be allowed.
Position the machine horizon-
tally only with the platform fully
lowered. After ensuring that
all 4 wheels or outriggers (if
equipped) have contact with
level firm surface, the aerial
platform can be elevated. Af-
ter elevation, the drive function
must not be activated.
• Elevated driving must only
be done on a firm level sur-
face.
• DO NOT ascend or descend
a grade when elevated. When
fully lowered, ascending or de-
scending, only grades up to
rated maximum listed in Table
2-1a and Table 2-1b are permis-
sible.
