5 Only use the machine as it was
intended.
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.
Only trained and authorized personnel should be permitted to operate a machine. If more than one operator is expected to use a machine at different times in the same work shift, they must all be qualified operators and are all expected to follow
all safety rules and instructions in the operator’s,
safety, and responsibilities manuals. That means every new operator should perform a pre­operation inspection, function tests, and a workplace inspection before using the machine.

To select drive speed
The drive controls can operate in two different drive speed modes. When the drive speed button light is on, slow drive speed mode is active. When the button light is off, fast drive speed mode is active.
Press the drive speed button to select the desired drive speed.
Note: When the platform is elevated, the drive speed button light is always on, indicating elevated drive speed.
Driving on a slope
Determine the slope and side slope ratings for the machine and determine the slope grade.
Maximum slope rating, stowed position:
GS-1432m, GS-1932m
25%
14°
Maximum side slope rating, stowed position:
GS-1432m, GS-1932m
25%
14°
Note: Slope rating is subject to ground conditions with one person in the platform and adequate traction. Additional platform weight may reduce slope rating.
To determine the slope grade:
Measure the slope with a digital inclinometer OR use the following procedure.
You will need:
carpenter’s level straight piece of wood, at least 3 feet/1 m long tape measure
Lay the piece of wood on the slope. At the downhill end, lay the level on the top edge
of the piece of wood and lift the end until the piece of wood is level.
While holding the piece of wood level, measure the vertical distance from the bottom of the piece of wood to the ground.
Divide the tape measure distance (rise) by the length of the piece of wood (run) and multiply by
100. Example:
Piece of wood = 144 inches (3.6 m) Run = 144 inches (3.6 m) Rise = 12 inches (0.3 m) 12 in ÷ 144 in = 0.083 x 100 = 8.3% grade
0.3 m ÷ 3.6 m = 0.083 x 100 = 8.3% grade If the slope exceeds the maximum slope or side
slope rating, then the machine must be winched or transported up or down the slope. See Transport and Lifting section.
