Do not alter or disable the limit switches.

Do not drive over 0.6 mph / 1 km/h with the primary boom raised or extended or the secondary boom raised.

Do not use the platform controls to free a platform that is caught, snagged or otherwise prevented from normal motion by an adjacent structure. All personnel must be removed from the platform before attempting to free the platform using the ground controls.

Do not operate the machine in strong or gusty winds. Do not increase the surface area of the platform or the load. Increasing the area exposed to the wind will decrease machine stability.

Use extreme care and slow speeds while driving the machine in the stowed position across uneven terrain, debris, unstable or slippery surfaces and near holes and drop-offs.

SAFETY RULES

Do not drive the machine on a slope that exceeds the maximum uphill, downhill or side slope rating of the machine. Slope rating applies to machines in the stowed position.

Maximum slope rating, stowed position,

Counterweight

uphill

20%

(11°)

 

 

 

 

Counterweight

downhill

20%

(11°)

 

 

 

 

Side slope

 

20%

(11°)

 

 

 

 

Note: Slope rating is subject to ground conditions and adequate traction.

Do not drive the machine on or near uneven terrain, unstable surfaces or other hazardous conditions with the boom raised or extended.

Do not push off or pull toward any object outside of the platform.

Maximum allowable side force - ANSI & CSA

150 lbs / 667 N

Maximum allowable manual force - CE

90 lbs / 400 N

Do not alter or disable machine components that in any way affect safety and stability.

Do not replace items critical to machine stability with items of different weight or specification.

Do not modify or alter an aerial work platform. Mounting attachments for holding tools or other materials onto the platform, toeboards or guard rail system can increase the weight in the platform and the surface area of the platform or the load.
