Operating Instructions

Fundamentals

The Operating Instructions section provides instructions for each aspect of machine operation. It is the operator's responsibility to follow all the safety rules and instructions in the operator's, safety and responsibilities manuals.

Do Not Operate Unless:

You learn and practice the principles of safe machine operation contained in this operator's manual.

1 Avoid hazardous situations.

2 Always perform a pre-operation inspection.

3 Always perform function tests prior to use.

4 Inspect the workplace.

5 Only use the machine as it was intended.

Using the machine for anything other than lifting personnel, along with their tools and materials, to an aerial work site is unsafe and dangerous.

Only trained and authorized personnel should be permitted to operate a machine. If more than one operator is expected to use a machine at different times in the same work shift, they must all be qualified operators and are all expected to follow all safety rules and instructions in the operator's, safety and responsibilities manuals. That means every new operator should perform a pre- operation inspection, function tests and a workplace inspection before using the machine.

Emergency Stop

Push in the red Emergency Stop button to the off position at the ground or platform controls to stop all machine functions.

Repair any function that operates when the red Emergency Stop button is pushed in.

Selecting and operating the ground controls will override the platform red Emergency Stop button.
