manual. 1 Avoid hazardous situations. 2 Always perform a pre-operation
inspection. 3 Always perform function tests prior to use. 4 Inspect the workplace.
5 Only use the machine as it was intended.
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 pre-operation inspection, function tests, and a workplace inspection before using the machine.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Driving on a slope
Determine the uphill, downhill and side slope ratings for the machine and determine the slope grade.
Maximum slope rating, counterweight uphill (gradeability): 2WD: 37% (20°) 4WD: 45% (24°)
Maximum slope rating, counterweight downhill: 2WD: 20% (11°) 4WD: 40% (22°)
Maximum side slope rating: 25% (14°)
Note: Slope rating is subject to ground conditions and adequate traction. The term gradeability applies to the counterweight uphill configuration only.
Be sure the boom is below horizontal and the platform is between the non-steer wheels.
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 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)
Move the drive speed select switch to machine on incline symbol.
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
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 uphill, downhill
or side slope rating, then the machine must be winched or transported up or down the slope. See Transport and Lifting section.
