SP ELEVATING WORK PLATFORMS
ARE NOT ELECTRICALLY INSULATED.
If the plat form, booms, or any other con duc tive part of an SP con tacts a high-voltage elec tri cal con duc tor,
the re sult can be SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH for per sons on or near the ma chine.
GO NO CLOSER THAN THE MINIMUM SAFE APPROACH DISTANCES
(M.S.A.D) - AS OUTLINED IN TABLE 1. AND FIGURE 1.,
ON THE NEXT PAGE.
Be sure to al low for sag and sway in the wires and the work plat form.
If an SP comes in contact with a live electrical conductor, the entire machine can be charged.
If that happens, you should remain on the machine and not contact any other structure or object within
reach. That includes the ground, adjacent buildings, poles, and any object not a part of the SP.
Such con tact could make your body a con duc tor to the other ob ject cre at ing an elec tri cal shock haz ard
re sult ing in SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH.
DO NOT attempt to enter or leave the SP until you are sure the electricity has been turned off.
If an SP is in contact with a live conductor, the platform operator MUST warn others on the ground in the
vicinity of the SP to STAY AWAY from the machine, since their bodies can also form a path for electricity to
ground thus creating an electrical shock hazard with possible ELECTROCUTION and DEATH.
DO NOT attempt to operate SP ground controls when the platform, scissors arm assembly, or any other
conducting part of the SP is in contact with electrical wires or if there is an immediate danger of such
contact.
Re gard all con duc tors as en er gized.
Personnel working on or near an SP must be continuously aware of electrical hazards, recognizing that
SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH can result if contact with an electrical wire does occur.
Operators must check local power regulations before using the SP unit near power
lines

The aerial platform has built-in safety features and
has been factory tested for compliance with
Snorkel specifications and industry standards.
However, any personnel lifting aerial platform can
be potentially dangerous in the hands of untrained
or careless operators.
The potential for an accident increases when
the aerial platform is operated by personnel
who are not trained and authorized. Death or
serious injury can result from such
accidents. Read and understand the
information in this manual and on the
placards and decals on the machine before
operating the aerial platform on the job.
Training is essential and must be performed by a
qualified person. Become proficient in knowledge
and actual operation before using the aerial
platform on the job. You must be authorized to
operate the aerial platform.
The operator bears ultimate responsibility for
following all manufacturer’s instructions and
warnings, regulations and safety rules of their
employer and/or any state or federal law.
