Collision Hazards

Be aware of limited sight distance and blind spots when driving or operating.

Be aware of the extended platform position when moving the machine.

The machine must be on a level surface or secured before releasing the brakes.

Operators must comply with employer, job site and governmental rules regarding the use of personal protective equipment.

Check the work area for overhead obstructions or other possible hazards.

Be aware of crushing hazards when grasping the platform guard rail.

Observe and use the color-coded direction arrows on the platform controls and platform decal plate for drive and steer functions.

Do not operate a machine in the path of any crane or moving overhead machinery unless the controls of the crane have been locked out and/or precautions have been taken to prevent any potential collision.

No stunt driving or horseplay while operating a machine.

SAFETY RULES

Do not lower the platform unless the area below is clear of personnel and obstructions.

Limit travel speed according to the condition of the ground surface, congestion, slope, location of personnel and any other factors which may cause collision.

Bodily Injury Hazard

Do not operate the machine with a hydraulic oil or air leak. An air leak or hydraulic leak can penetrate and/or burn skin.

Improper contact with components under any cover will cause serious injury. Only trained maintenance personnel should access compartments. Access by the operator is only advised when performing a pre-operation inspection. All compartments must remain closed and secured during operation.
