The aerial platform is not electrically insulated. Death or serious injury will result from contact with, or inadequate clearance from, an energized conductor.

Do not go closer than the minimum safe approach distance as dened by the Minimum Safe Approach Distance section in Chapter 3–Safety.

Regard all conductors as energized.

Allow for electrical wire sag and aerial platform sway.

If the platform, scissors structure, or any part of the aerial platform contacts a high-voltage electrical conductor, the entire machine can become electrically charged.

If that happens, remain on the machine and do not contact any other structure or object. This includes the ground, adjacent buildings, poles, and any other objects that are not part of the aerial platform.

Such contact could make your body a conductor to the other object, creating an electrical shock hazard resulting in death or serious injury.

If an aerial platform is in contact with an energized conductor the platform operator must warn ground personnel in the vicinity to stay away. Their bodies can conduct electricity creating an electrical shock hazard resulting in death or serious injury.

Do not approach or leave the aerial platform until the electricity has been turned off.

Do not attempt to operate the lower controls when the platform, scissors structure, or any part of the aerial platform is in contact with a high-voltage electrical conductor or if there is an immediate danger of such contact.

Personnel on or near an aerial platform must be continuously aware of electrical hazards, recognizing that death or serious injury can result from contact with an energized conductor.

California

Proposition 65 Warning

Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead components, chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

Prestart Inspection

Perform a prestart inspection before each shift as described in Chapter 8. Do not use the aerial platform on the job unless you are trained and authorized to do so.

Work Place Inspection and Practices

Do not use the aerial platform as a ground connection when welding.

y The welding ground clamp must be attached to the

same structure that is being welded.

y Electrical current ow can be very intense, causing

serious internal damage to some components.

Inspect the area before and during aerial platform use. The following are some potential hazards that may be in the work place:

y Debris y Slopes y Drop-offs or holes y Bumps and oor obstructions y Overhead obstructions y Unauthorized persons y High voltage conductors y Wind and weather conditions y Inadequate surface and support to withstand load

forces applied by the aerial platform in all operating

congurations

Before using the aerial platform in any hazardous (clas-

sied) location, make certain it is approved and of the

type required by ANSI/NFPA 505 for use in that particular location.

Know and understand the job site trafc-ow patterns and obey the agmen, road signs and signals.

to stop movement to avoid contact with structures or other hazards.

Always look in the direction of movement.

y Drive with care and at speeds compatible with the

work place conditions.

y Use caution when driving over rough ground, on

slopes and when turning.

y Do not engage in any form of horseplay or permit rid-

ers any place other than in the platform.

Secure all accessories, containers, tools and other materials in the platform to prevent them from accidentally falling or being kicked off the platform. Remove all objects that do not belong in or on the aerial platform.

Never steady the platform by positioning it against another platform.

Warning

The potential for an accident increases when operating an aerial platform that is damaged or malfunctioning. Death or serious injury could result from such accidents. Do not operate the aerial platform if it is damaged or malfunctioning.

Do not operate the aerial platform if it is damaged or not

functioning properly. Qualied maintenance personnel

must correct the problem before putting the aerial platform back into service.

Operation

Use three points of support when entering or exiting the platform. For example, use two hands and one foot when climbing into the platform.

While operating the aerial platform, a good safety prac-

tice is to have qualied personnel in the immediate work

area to:

y Help in case of an emergency y Operate emergency controls as required y Watch for loss of control by platform operator y Warn the operator of any obstructions or hazards that

may not be obvious to them

y Watch for soft terrain, sloping surfaces, drop-offs, etc.

where stability could be jeopardized

y Watch for bystanders and never allow anyone to be

under, or to reach through the scissors structure while operating the aerial platform

Make sure the area below the platform is free of personnel before lowering.

Keep both feet positioned rmly on the platform oor.

Do not dismount while the aerial platform is in motion or jump off the platform.

Properly stow the aerial platform and secure it against unauthorized operation at the end of each work day, before transporting, or if it is left unattended.

Tip-Over and Falling Hazards

Operate the aerial platform only on a rm, at, level surface capable of withstanding all load forces imposed by

Danger

Pinch points may exist between moving components. Death or serious injury will result from becoming trapped between components, buildings, structures,

the aerial platform in all operating conditions. Refer to the

General Specications chart for the maximum wheel load

and drive/lift level sensor interlock information. Raise the platform only when the aerial platform is on level ground.

or other obstacles. Make sure there is sufcient clearance around the machine before moving the chassis or platform. Allow sufcient room and time

8 PUSH 6,8,10

Page 13

Danger

The aerial platform can tip over if it becomes unstable.

Death or serious injury will result from a tip-over accident. Do not drive or position the aerial platform for elevated use near any drop-off, hole, slope, soft or uneven ground, or other tip-over hazard. Do not raise the platform outdoors.

Do not operate the aerial platform within 4′ (1.2 m) of any drop-off or hole.

Do not raise the platform in winds. Do not add anything to the aerial platform that will increase the wind loading such

as billboards, banners, ags, etc.

Never operate the aerial platform without all parts of the guardrail system in place and the safety gate closed. Make sure that all protective guards, cowlings, and doors are securely fastened.

Do not exceed the platform capacity nor the platformextension capacity as indicated on the platform rating placard on the platform. Do not carry loads that extend beyond the platform guardrails without prior written consent from Snorkel.

Do not operate the aerial platform from trucks, trailers, rail-

way cars, oating vessels, scaffolds, or similar equipment

unless the application is approved in writing by Snorkel.

Do not use the aerial platform as a crane, hoist, jack or for any purpose other than to position personnel, tools, and materials.

Do not climb on the guardrails or use ladders, planks, or other devices to extend or increase the work position from the platform.

Take care to prevent rope, electrical cords, and hoses, etc., from becoming caught in or on the aerial platform.

y If the platform or scissors structure becomes caught

on an adjacent structure or other obstacle and is prevented from normal motion, reverse the control to free the platform.

y If control reversal does not free the platform, evacuate

the platform before attempting to free it.

It is best not to transfer from the platform to another structure or from the structure to the platform, unless that is the safest way to do the job. Judge each situation separately taking the work environment into account. If it is necessary to transfer from the platform to another structure the following guidelines apply:

1. If you are using a fall restraint, transfer your anchorage from one structure to the other before stepping across.

Chapter 3 – Safety

3. Use the platform entrance, do not climb over or through the guardrails.

Electrical System

Charge the batteries in a well-ventilated area free of

ame, sparks, or other hazards that might cause re or

explosion.

Do not operate any of the aerial platform functions while the battery charger is plugged in.

Warning

Batteries give off hydrogen and oxygen that can com-

bine explosively. Death or serious injury could result

from a chemical explosion. Do not smoke or permit

open ames or sparks when checking the batteries.

Battery acid can damage the skin and eyes. Serious

infection or reaction could result if medical treatment is not given immediately. Wear face and eye protec-

tion when working near the batteries.

y Batteries contain sulfuric acid that can damage your

eyes or skin on contact.

y Wear a face shield, rubber gloves, and protective

clothing when working around batteries.

y If acid contacts your eyes, ush immediately with clear

water and get medical attention.

y If acid contacts your skin, wash off immediately with

clear water.

Hydraulic System

The hydraulic system contains hoses with hydraulic uid

under pressure.

Danger

Hydraulic uid escaping under pressure can have enough force to inject uid into the esh. Serious

infection or reaction will result if medical treatment is

not given immediately. In case of injury by escaping hydraulic uid, seek medical attention at once.

Do not place your hand or any part of your body in front

of escaping hydraulic uid. Use a piece of cardboard or

wood to search for hydraulic leaks.

Placards and Decals

The aerial platform is equipped with placards and decals that provide instruction for operation and accident prevention. Do not operate the aerial platform if any placards or decals are missing, damaged, or illegible.

The aerial platform lift functions are interlocked through a level sensor system. The lift level sensor interlock operates when the platform is elevated approximately 6′ (1.8 m).

If the chassis is tilted more than 2 degrees side-to-side or more than 2 degrees front-to-rear, the lift functions will not operate and an alarm will sound.

Lower the platform and move to a level surface when the lift level sensor alarm sounds.

The lift level sensor system is for added protection and

does not justify operating on anything other than rm, at, level surfaces.

Lowering Alarm

When a platform control button is pressed to lower the platform, the alarm emits a loud beeping sound to warn personnel in the work area to stand clear.

Danger

Pinch points exist on the scissors structure. Death or serious injury will result if the scissors structure lowers onto personnel within the scissors arms or

under the raised platform. Stand clear while raising

and lowering the platform.

Be careful when lowering the platform. Keep hands and

ngers away from the scissors structures components.

Chapter 6 – Batteries

The battery tray contains 1, 105 amp hour, 12 volt battery. This battery supplys 12 volt DC electrical power to operate the aerial platform control systems. Proper machine operation depends on well maintained and charged batteries.

General Maintenance

Always keep the batteries clean, free of dirt and corrosion.

A lm on top of the battery can accelerate discharge.

Warning

Battery acid can damage the skin and eyes. Serious

infection or reaction can result if medical treatment is not given immediately. Wear face and eye protection

when working near the batteries.

Use distilled water to rell the batteries. Avoid water

containing metallic solids such as iron which can reduce the life of the batteries.

Consult a battery charger specialist if extreme temperature use is unavoidable.

y Cold reduces battery capacity and retards charging.

y Heat increases water usage and can result in over-

charging.

The machine should immediately be placed on charge if this occurs. Fully recharge the battery, immediately after use.

y One charging cycle per day is preferred.

y A fully charged battery performs best.

y The deeper the discharge, the fewer number of cycles

a battery will deliver. Deep discharges deteriorate the battery quicker than light shallow cycles.

y An overly discharged battery may need to be cycled

a few times before it can fully recover.

y If the battery begins to heat before becoming fully

charged, it may be necessary to recharge and discharge the battery a few times.

Use the following procedure to charge the battery.

1. At the lower controls, turn the control selector switch to the off position (refer to Figure 6.1).

Control Selector

y Very high temperatures can cause thermal run away

which may lead to an explosion or re.

Charging

The aerial platform is equipped with an automatic battery charger that will completely recharge the batteries and turn off after the charge cycle is completed.

Warning

Batteries give off hydrogen and oxygen that can com-

bine explosively. Death or serious injury can result from a chemical explosion. Charge the batteries only in a well ventilated area away from sparks or ame.

Caution

The batteries can be overcharged and/or damaged

if the charger fails to shut off automatically. Do not

leave the battery charger on for more than two days.

It may take from 1 1/2 to 16 hours to recharge the battery depending on the amount of discharge. If the charging cycle exceeds 16 hours without the battery being fully recharged, shut off the charger and have the battery checked.

The PUSH PRO series has a built in feature whereby power is cut to the machine when the battery level

reaches 94.5% (Discharge) or 11.34v of the original 12v

supply, this is to prevent excessive wear or damge to the battery.
