Operating Instructions

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.

Do Not Operate Unless:

You learn and practice the principles of safe

machine operation contained in this operator's

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 worksite 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: 25% (14°)
4WD: 40% (22°)

Maximum slope rating,
counterweight downhill:
2WD: 20% (11°)
4WD: 30% (17°)

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.

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:

run

rise

Piece of wood = 144 inches (3.6 m)
Run = 144 inches (3.6 m)

Be sure the boom is below horizontal and the
platform is between the non-steer wheels.

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

Part No. 1000209 Z-60/34 27

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.
