SAFETY SYMBOLS

SAFETY SYMBOLS

This manual contains important information on the safe use of your Vertical Lift. Your failure to read, understand and follow all safety rules, warnings and instructions will unnecessarily expose you and others to dangerous situations. For your safety and the safety of those around you, you must operate your aerial work platform as instructed in this manual.

You, the operator, are the single most important factor for safety when using any piece of equipment. Learn to operate your work platform in a safe manner.

To help you recognize important safety information, we have identified warnings and instructions that directly impact on safety with following signals:

DANGER

"DANGER" INDICATES AN IMMINENTLY HAZARDOUS SITUATION WHICH, IF NOT AVOIDED, WILL RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY. THIS SIGNAL WORD IS TO BE LIMITED TO THE MOST EXTREME SITUATIONS.

"WARNING" INDICATES A POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS SITUATION WHICH, IF NOT AVOIDED, COULD RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.

A CAUTION

"Caution" indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert against unsafe practices. "Caution" is permitted for property-damage-only accidents.

One final note: The best method to protect yourself and others from injury or death is to use common sense. If you are unsure of any operation, don't start until you are satisfied that it is safe to proceed and have discussed the situation with your supervisor.

Page 11
SAFETY RULES AND PRECAUTIONS

A DANGER

• ELECTROCUTION HAZARD!! THIS MACHINE IS NOT INSULATED!! Maintain safe clearance from electrical lines and apparatus. You must allow for machine sway (side to side movement) when elevated, and electrical line movement. This machine does not provide protection from contact with or proximity to an electrically charged conductor.

You must AVOID CONTACT between any part of the machine, or its load, and any electrical line or apparatus carrying up to 300 volts.

You must maintain a CLEARANCE OF AT LEAST 10 FEET (3.05 M) between any part of the machine, or its load, and any electrical line or apparatus carrying over 300 volts up to 50,000 volts. One foot (30.5 cm) additional clearance is required for every additional 30,000 volts.

DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY will result from contact with, or inadequate clearance from, any electrically charged conductor.

  • Read and understand all safety and control information found on the machine and in this manual before operating the machine.
  • Only trained, competent personnel should operate the vertical lift.
  • Be aware of all Government and Local rules which may apply to this machine and its safe operation.
  • Approved safety belts must be worn at all times when operating the machine from the platform. In addition, approved headgear and other protective equipment must be worn as required. (In the U.S.A., OSHA approved equipment is required. For other countries, the appropriate equivalent government body should be consulted.)
  • NEVER fasten safety belt to an adjacent structure while on the work platform.
  • Make sure that entry gate to platform is secured before operating machine from the platform.
  • DO NOT block the foot pedal or any function control in the operating position.
  • DO NOT exceed the platform capacity of the machine in any configuration. Review the section titled "MACHINE SPECIFICATIONS", earlier in this manual, regarding this model's capacities and dimensions.

SAFETY RULES

SAFETY RULES

SAFETY RULES AND PRECAUTIONS (CONTINUED)

A DANGER

  • SECURE all tools and other loose items to prevent injury to persons working on or below the work platform.
  • DO NOT use scaffolding, ladders or similar items to extend your reach while on the work platform.
  • DO NOT attempt to climb down the boom assembly, if the machine fails while the operator's platform is raised or extended.
  • Since the machine may be operated from its ground controls, precautions should be taken to prevent unauthorized personnel from operating the work platform with the ground controls while the platform is in use.
  • The "UNPOWERED MOVEMENT" procedure (described later in this manual) requires that the brake is released, and the free-wheeling valve is opened. After performing the procedure, the result is that there is no means to stop the machine's travel. Terex recommends using this procedure only in cases of emergency, and only for a short distance. Be on guard against machine runaway on sloping surfaces. Movement speed shall not exceed 1 M.P.H. (1.6 K.P.H.).
  • DO NOT attempt to open any hydraulic line or component without first relieving all system pressure and shutting off fluid flow from the tank.
  • DO NOT allow anyone to tamper with, service or operate the machine from the ground control station while personnel are on the platform, except in an emergency.
  • DO NOT alter, modify or disable any safety devices or interlocks.
  • DO NOT recharge the batteries near sparks or open flames. Lead-acid batteries generate EXPLOSIVE HYDROGEN GAS. Always wear safety glasses.
  • DO NOT use the vertical lift outdoors in electrical storms or in high wind situations.
  • DO NOT raise the vertical lift unless the machine is on a firm, level surface.
Page 13
SAFETY RULES AND PRECAUTIONS (CONTINUED)

  • Use caution to prevent ropes, cords, hoses, etc. from becoming entangled in the machine's boom sections when being raised, lowered or repositioned.
  • Ensure that the area surrounding the mobile platform is clear of personnel and equipment before driving the machine, or raising or lowering the platform.
  • Maintain a safe distance from overhead and ground obstacles, debris, drop-offs, holes, depressions, electrical wires and other hazards to travel.
  • Limit travel speed according to conditions of the ground surface, congestion, slope, location of personnel or any other factors that could cause hazard of collision or injury to personnel.
  • DO NOT sit, stand or climb on platform rails.
  • DO NOT operate this machine while under the influence of any drugs or alcohol.
  • DO NOT operate this machine if you are bothered by heights, seizures, or dizzy spells.
  • DO NOT indulge in stunt driving or horseplay while operating this machine.

  • Complete the "Operational Checklists" found in this manual (see Table of Contents) at designated intervals.
  • Always attach the machine to a winch when loading or unloading from a truck or trailer. Unassisted loading or unloading of any vertical lift is not recommended.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE TIPS

GENERAL MAINTENANCE TIPS

NEVER PERFORM SERVICE ON THE MACHINE (WITH PLATFORM ELEVATED) WITHOUT FIRST BLOCKING THE ELEVATING ASSEMBLY IN PLACE !

USE 4" X 4" WOOD POSTS OR SIMILAR MATERIAL WITH SUFFICIENT STRENGTH TO HOLD PLATFORM AND BOOM.

BLOCK BETWEEN LOWER BOOM OR MIDPOST AND UNDERCARRIAGE. DO NOT BLOCK BETWEEN MIDPOST AND GROUND, AS RETRACTING CYLINDER MAY CAUSE STEER END OF MACHINE TO RISE OFF THE GROUND.

  • Never leave hydraulic components or hoses open. They must be protected from contamination (including rain) at all times.
  • Never open a hydraulic system when there are contaminants in the air.
  • Use only recommended lubricants. Improper lubricants or incompatible lubricants may be as harmful as no lubrication.
  • ALWAYS clean the surrounding area before opening hydraulic systems.
  • Watch for makeshift "fixes" which can jeopardize safety as well as lead to more costly repairs.
  • Any work platform found not to be in safe operating condition should be removed from service until repaired. All repairs should be made by authorized personnel in conformance with the manufacturer's operating, maintenance, and repair manuals.
