3.4-6 Platform load sensing system
The platform load-sensing system prevents normal MEWP movement when the platform is overloaded and in a
stationary position.
The boom position (extension and angle) has an effect on the platform capacity. Each boom position zone
(high-capacity zone or low-capacity zone) has a different capacity. Refer to the platform capacity label(s) for the
maximum platform capacity of each zone.
WARNING
If the platform is overloaded because of contact with an overhead obstruction, do one of the steps that
follow:
▪
Remove the obstruction from the platform. Then after four seconds, you can operate the normal
functions.
▪
Use the emergency-power unit to release the platform from the obstruction (refer to
Section 3.4-7).
WARNING
Fall hazard. Do not try to free a snagged platform with the base controls until you remove all personnel
from the platform. If you do not obey, there is a risk of death or serious injury.
