Allow for platform movement, electrical line sway or sag and beware of strong or gusty winds.
Keep away from the machine if it contacts energized power lines. Personnel on the ground or in the platform must not touch or operate the machine until energized power lines are shut off.
Do not operate the machine during lightning or storms.
Do not use the machine as a ground for welding.
Tip-over Hazards
Occupants, equipment and materials shall not exceed the maximum platform capacity.
Maximum platform capacity |
500 lbs |
227 kg |
|
|
|
Maximum occupants |
|

|
|
|
The weight of options and accessories, such as pipe cradles, panel cradles and welders, will reduce the rated platform capacity and must be factored into the total platform load. See the decals on the options.
Do not raise or extend the boom unless the machine is on a firm, level surface.
Do not depend on the tilt alarm as a level indicator. The tilt alarm sounds in the platform only when the machine is on a severe slope.
If the tilt alarm sounds:
Do not extend, rotate or raise the boom above horizontal. Move the machine to a firm, level surface before raising the platform. If the tilt alarm sounds when the platform is raised, use extreme caution to retract the boom and lower the platform. Do not rotate the boom while lowering. Move the machine to a firm, level surface before raising the platform.
Do not alter or disable the limit switches.

Do not drive over 0.6 mph / 1 km/h with the primary boom raised or extended or the secondary boom raised.
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.
Use extreme care and slow speeds while driving the machine in stowed position across uneven terrain, debris, unstable or slippery surfaces and near holes and drop-offs.
Do not drive the machine on or near uneven terrain, unstable surfaces or other hazardous conditions with the boom raised or extended.
SAFETY RULES
Do not drive the machine on a slope that exceeds the maximum uphill, downhill or side slope rating of the machine. Slope rating applies only to machines in the stowed position.

SAFETY RULES
Do not place or attach overhanging loads to any part of this machine.
Do not place ladders or scaffolds in the platform or against any part of this machine.
Do not transport tools and materials unless they are evenly distributed and can be safely handled by person(s) in the platform.
Do not use the machine on a moving or mobile surface or vehicle.
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.
Be sure all tires are in good condition, air-filled tires are properly inflated and lug nuts are properly tightened.
Do not use the machine as a crane.
Do not push the machine or other objects with the boom.
Do not contact adjacent structures with the boom.
Do not tie the boom or platform to adjacent structures.
Do not place loads outside the platform perimeter.
Fall Hazards
Occupants must wear a safety belt or harness and comply with applicable governmental regulations. Attach the lanyard to the anchor provided in the platform.
Do not sit, stand or climb on the platform guard rails. Maintain a firm footing on the platform floor at all times.
Do not climb down from the platform when raised.
Keep the platform floor clear of debris.
Lower the platform entry mid-rail or close the entry gate before operating.

Collision Hazards
Be aware of limited sight distance and blind spots when driving or operating.
Be aware of the boom position when rotating the turntable.
Check the work area for overhead obstructions or other possible hazards.
Be aware of crushing hazards when grasping the platform guard rail.
Operators must comply with employer, job site and governmental rules regarding the use of personal protective equipment.
Observe and use color-coded direction arrows on the platform controls and drive chassis for drive and steer functions.
SAFETY RULES
Do not lower the boom unless the area below is clear of personnel and obstructions.
Limit travel speed according to the condition of the ground surface, congestion, slope, location of personnel, and any other factors which may cause collision.
Do not operate a boom in the path of any crane unless the controls of the crane have been locked out and/or precautions have been taken to prevent any potential collision.
No stunt driving or horseplay while operating a machine.
Component Damage Hazard
Do not use any battery or charger greater than 12V to jump-start the engine.
Do not use the machine as a ground for welding.

SAFETY RULES
Explosion and Fire Hazards
Do not start the engine if you smell or detect liquid petroleum gas (LPG), gasoline, diesel fuel or other explosive substances.
Do not refuel the machine with the engine running.
Refuel the machine and charge the battery only in an open, well-ventilated area away from sparks, flames and lighted tobacco.
Do not operate the machine in hazardous locations or locations where potentially flammable or explosive gases or particles may be present.
Do not spray ether into engines equipped with glow plugs.
Damaged Machine Hazards
Do not use a damaged or malfunctioning machine.
Conduct a thorough pre-operation inspection of the machine and test all functions before each work shift. Immediately tag and remove from service a damaged or malfunctioning machine.
Be sure all maintenance has been performed as specified in this manual and the appropriate service manual.
Be sure all decals are in place and legible.
Be sure the operator’s, safety and responsibilities manuals are complete, legible and in the storage container located on the platform.
Bodily Injury Hazard
Do not operate the machine with a hydraulic oil or air leak. An air leak or hydraulic leak can penetrate and/or burn skin.
Always operate the machine in a well-ventilated area to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning.
Improper contact with components under any cover will cause serious injury. Only trained maintenance personnel should access compartments. Access by the operator is only advised when performing a pre-operation inspection. All compartments must remain closed and secured during operation.
Battery Safety
Burn Hazards
Batteries contain acid. Always wear protective clothing and eyewear when working with batteries.
Avoid spilling or contacting battery acid. Neutralize battery acid spills with baking soda and water.
Explosion Hazard
Keep sparks, flames and lighted tobacco away from batteries. Batteries emit explosive gas.
Electrocution Hazard
Avoid contact with electrical terminals.
