Do not depend on tilt alarm as a level indicator. Tilt alarm sounds in platform only when machine is on a severe slope.
If tilt alarm sounds:
Do not extend, rotate or raise boom above horizontal. Move machine to a firm, level surface before raising platform. If tilt alarm sounds when platform is raised, use extreme caution to retract boom and lower platform. Do not rotate boom while lowering. Move machine to a firm, level surface before raising platform.
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.
