NEVER allow anyone to walk or stand under the boom. A lowering boom or falling load can result in death or serious personal injury.

Model 6036

Safety Practices

Operational Considerations

1. Preparation and Prevention

Know the location and function of all vehicle controls.

Make sure all persons are away from the vehicle and that the travel select lever is in the (N) NEUTRAL position and the Neutral Lock Lever is in the (N) NEUTRAL LOCK position with the parking brake switch engaged before starting the engine.

Holes, obstructions, debris and other worksite hazards can cause death or serious personal injury. Always walk around and look for these and other hazards before operating the vehicle in a new worksite.

Prevent accidents when you move the vehicle around the worksite. Know the rules for movement of people and vehicles on the worksite. Have a person act as a lookout for you. Follow the instructions of signals and signs.

DO NOT operate the vehicle unless all hazard and instructional decals are in place and readable. (Replace all missing, illegible, or damaged decals.)

2. Clearances

Look out for and avoid other personnel, machinery and vehicles in the area. Use a spotter if you do not have a clear view of conditions that affect clearances. Travel with the boom fully retracted and lowered as far as possible while still maintaining enough ground clearance for conditions.

Always check boom clearances carefully before driving underneath door openings, bridges, etc.

Always check for power lines when raising the boom. Beware of overhead wires. Contact with electrical power lines can result in electrocution. See “Electrocution Hazards” on page 15.

3. Visual Obstruction

Dust, smoke, fog, etc. can decrease vision and cause an accident. Always stop or slow the vehicle until the obstruction clears and the worksite is visible again. Have a lookout person assist you.

Where the load will obstruct the operator’s vision, it is recommended that the vehicle be operated in REVERSE, looking backwards in the direction of travel. Travel at a slower speed and get someone to direct you.

Model 6036

Safety Practices

4. Underground Hazards

Know the location of all underground hazards before operating this vehicle in a new area or worksite. Electrical cables, gas and water pipes, sewer, or other underground objects can cause death or serious personal injury. Contact your local underground utility service or diggers hotline to mark all underground hazards.

5. Electrocution Hazards

NEVER operate this vehicle in an area where overhead power lines,

overhead or underground cables, or other power sources may exist without first requesting that the appropriate power or utility company deenergize the lines, or take other suitable precautions.

OS0063

Model 6036

Safety Practices

6. Carrying Personnel

Use only an approved work platform meeting the ASME B56.6 standards for lifting and lowering personnel. NEVER transport personnel in a work platform for even the shortest distance.

Death or serious personal injury can occur if these rules are not obeyed. Riders can fall and be crushed or run over. Avoid accidents.

For other specific precautions, see “Elevating Personnel” on page 78.

7. Tip Over Hazard

DANGER

VEHICLE TIPOVER can result in death or serious injury.

DO NOT travel with the boom raised.

DO NOT raise boom while on a slope unless load is level.

Traveling with the boom raised is dangerous and can cause tipover. Keep the boom as low as possible. Travel with extreme caution the slowest

possible speed.

Keep the vehicle under control at all times. When negotiating turns, slow down and turn the steering wheel in a smooth sweeping motion. Avoid jerky turns, starts or stops. Reduce vehicle speed on rough ground and slopes.

DO NOT exceed the rated lift capacity of the vehicle as structural damage and unstable conditions will result.

To ensure that the vehicle is positioned in the most stable condition before operating an attachment, use the frame sway control (frame tilt) to level the vehicle. The vehicle is level when the frame level indicator gauge reaches (0°) zero degrees.

MAINTAIN proper tire pressure at all times.

and at

OS0086

If the vehicle cannot be leveled using the frame sway control, reposition the vehicle.

Frame swaying left or right with the boom raised above horizontal is dangerous. Always use the frame sway control to level the vehicle before

raising the boom above horizontal, with or without a load. If the vehicle cannot be leveled using frame sway control, reposition the vehicle.

8. Emergency Exit Rear Window

The rear window (Figure 2, 1) in the enclosed cab can be used as an emergency exit by removing the latch pin (2) located on the window latch (3). The window is then free to swing open.

Model 6036

Safety Practices

11.Slopes

DO NOT park the vehicle on an incline and leave it unattended.

• Driving across a slope is dangerous, as unexpected changes in

the slope can cause tipover. Ascend or descend slopes slowly and with caution

• Ascend or descend slopes with the heavy end of the vehicle pointing up

NOTE: The rear of the vehicle is normally considered the heavy end unless the carriage is fully loaded. In this case the front of the vehicle is now the heavy end.

• Unloaded vehicles should be operated on all slopes with the carriage pointing down

• On all slopes, the load must be tilted back and raised only as far as necessary to clear the ground.

• When operating on a downhill slope, reduce travel speed and downshift to a low gear to permit compression braking by the engine and aid the application of the service brakes.

the slope.

12.Falling Load Hazard

DO NOT exceed the total rated load capacity of the specific type fork

being used. Each fork is stamped with a maximum load capacity. If the capacity is exceeded, forks may break. See “Fork Ratings” on page 77.

DO NOT downshift at a high ground speed. Sudden slowing can cause the load to drop off the forks.

13.Ventilation

DO NOT operate this vehicle in an area with flammable dust or vapors

unless good ventilation has removed the hazard. Sparks from the electrical system and the engine exhaust can cause an explosion.

Carbon monoxide fumes from the engine exhaust can cause suffocation in an enclosed area. Good ventilation is very important when operating this vehicle.
