Section 2 – Operator Safety
WARNING
Failure to comply with your required
responsibilities in the use and operation of the
MEWP could result in death or serious injury!
A study conducted by St. Paul Travelers showed
that most accidents are caused by the failure of the
operator to follow simple and fundamental safety rules
and precautions.
You, as a careful operator, are the best insurance
against an accident. Therefore, proper usage of this
MEWP is mandatory. The following pages of this
manual should be read and understood completely
before operating the MEWP.
Common sense dictates the use of protective clothing
when working on or near machinery. Use appropriate
safety devices to protect your eyes, ears, hands, feet
and body.
Any modications from the original design are strictly
forbidden without written permission from SKYJACK.
