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.
Using the machine for anything other than lifting personnel, along with their tools and materials, to an aerial work site is unsafe and dangerous.
If more than one operator is expected to use a machine at different times in the same work shift, each operator is expected to follow all safety rules and instructions in the operator’s manual. That means every new operator should perform a pre- operation inspection, function tests and a work place inspection before using the machine.
6Be sure all four interlock display lights at the ground controls are on and all four outriggers are in firm contact with the ground.
7Use the bubble level to make sure the machine is level.
Note: If adjustment is necessary, check the bubble level and interlock display again to make sure the machine is level and all four interlock display lights are on.
