Do not depend on the tilt alarm as a level indicator. The tilt alarm sounds only when the machine is on a severe slope.
When the tilt alarm sounds, immediately lower the boom and adjust the outriggers to level the machine.
Do not alter or disable the limit switches.
Do not raise the boom when wind speeds may exceed 28 mph / 12.5 m/s. If wind speeds exceed 28 mph / 12.5 m/s when the boom is raised, lower the boom and do not continue to operate the machine.
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.
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 without prior written permission from the manufacturer. 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.
Do not transport tools and materials unless they are evenly distributed and can be safely handled by person(s) in the platform.
SAFETY RULES
Do not place ladders or scaffolds in the platform or against any part of this machine.
Do not use the machine on a moving or mobile surface or vehicle.
Be sure all tires are properly inflated and in good condition and lug nuts are properly tightened.
Do not use the platform as a crane.
Do not place loads outside the platform perimeter.
Do not place or attach overhanging loads to any part of the platform.

Maximum allowable manual force,
CE and Australia 400 N
Do not push the machine or other objects with the boom.
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 use batteries that weigh less than the original equipment. Four batteries are used as counterweight and are critical to machine stability. Each battery must weigh 65 pounds / 29.5 kg.
Do not contact adjacent structures with the boom.
Do not tie the boom or platform to adjacent structures.
