SAFETY RULES
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 push off or pull

outside of the platform.
Maximum allowable

200 N
Do not transport tools and materials unless they are
evenly distributed and can be safely handled by
person(s) in the platform.
Do not alter or disable machine components that in
any way affect safety and stability.
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 raise the mast when wind speeds may
exceed 12.5 m/s. If wind speeds exceed 12.5 m/s
when the plaform is raised, lower the platform 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 drive the machine on or near uneven terrain,
unstable surfaces or other hazardous conditions
with the platform raised.
Do not replace items critical to machine stability
with items of different weight or specification.
Do not use the machine on a moving or mobile
surface or vehicle.
Do not place or attach fixed or overhanging loads to
any part of this machine.
Do not place ladders or scaffolds in the platform or
against any part of this machine.
Be sure all tires are in good condition, castle nuts
are properly tightened and cotter pins are properly
installed.
