SR ELEVATING WORK PLATFORMS
ARE NOT ELECTRICALLY INSULATED.
If the plat form, scis sors arm as sem bly, or any other con duc tive part of an SR 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 3.,
ON THE NEXT PAGE.
Be sure to al low for sag and sway in the wires and the work plat form.
If an SR co mes in con tact with a live elec tri cal con duc tor, the en tire ma chine can be charged.
If that hap pens, you should re main on the ma chine and not con tact any other struc ture or ob ject within reach. That in cludes the ground, ad ja cent build ings, poles, and any ob ject not a part of the SR.
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 at tempt to en ter or leave the SR un til you are sure the elec tric ity has been turned off.
If an SR is in con tact with a live con duc tor, the plat form op er a tor MUST warn oth ers on the ground in the vi ­cin ity of the SR to STAY AWAY from the ma chine, since their bod ies can also form a path for elec tric ity to ground thus cre at ing an elec tri cal shock haz ard with pos si ble ELECTROCUTION and DEATH.
DO NOT at tempt to op er ate SR ground con trols when the plat form, scis sors arm as sem bly, or any other con duct ing part of the SR is in con tact with elec tri cal wires or if there is an im me di ate dan ger of such con ­tact.
Re gard all con duc tors as en er gized.
Per son nel work ing on or near an SR must be con tin u ously aware of elec tri cal haz ards, rec og niz ing that SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH can re sult if con tact with an elec tri cal wire does oc cur.

Do not op er ate the SR2770 from a po si tion on trucks, trail ers, rail way cars, float ing ves sels, scaf ­folds, or sim i lar equip ment un less the ap pli ca tion is ap proved in writ ing by Snor kel.
Care shall be taken to prevent rope, electric cords, and hoses, etc., from becoming entangled in the aerial platform. If the platform or elevating assembly becomes caught, snagged, or otherwise prevented from normal motion by an adjacent structure or other obstacle such that control reversal does not free the platform, remove all personnel from the platform before attempts are made to free the platform using ground controls.
Do not climb on the guardrails or use ladders, planks, or other devices to extend or increase your work position from the platform.
Do not use the SR as a crane, hoist, or jack,or for any other pur pose other than to po si tion per son nel, their tools, and ma te ri als.
Do not op er ate the SR2770 in winds, or wind gusts, of 28 mph, 45kph 12.5 m/s) or more and do not add any thing to the SR2770 that will in crease the wind load ing (ban ners, flags, etc.).
General Safety Precautions
Do not mod ify the SR2770 in any way.
When parts or com po nents are re placed, they shall be iden ti cal or equiv a lent to orig i nal Snor kel parts or com po nents.
Do not over ride any of the safety fea tures of the SR2770.
Hydraulic System Precautions
The hy drau lic sys tem con tains hoses with hy drau ­lic fluid un der pres sure.
Un der nor mal work ing con di tions it is best not to trans fer from the plat form to an other struc ture or vice versa, un less that is the saf est way to do the job. Each sit u a tion must be judged sep a rately tak ­ing the work en vi ron ment into ac count. The fol low ­ing guide lines ap ply:
1. Where possible, place the work platform over a roof or walking structure to do the transfer.
2. Transfer your anchorage from one structure to another before you step across.
3. Remember, you might be departing the work platform to a structure where fall arrest is required.
4. Do not climb over or through the guardrails. Use the platform entrance.
All plat form oc cu pants MUST wear and use fall re ­straint. At tach fall re straints to the plat form lan yard an chor points.
Do not ex ceed the un re stricted plat form ca pac ity as in di cated on the ca pac ity plac ard at the en ­trance to the plat form. Do not carry loads from any point out side of the plat form.
Make sure that all pro tec tive guards, cowl ings, and doors are in place and se cure. Be sure the guard ­rail sys tem, in clud ing the gate, is in place and se ­cure.
Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can have enough force to inject fluid into the flesh. Serious infection or reaction can result if medical treatment is not given immediately. In case of injury by escaping hydraulic fluid, seek medical attention at once.
DO NOT place your hand or any part of your body in front of es cap ing hy drau lic fluid. Use a piece of card board or wood to search for hy drau lic leaks.
Do not at tempt re pairs to hy drau lic sys tems un less you are trained. Re fer to ex pe ri enced re pair per ­son nel for help.
Fire Prevention
Never op er ate your SR near a flame or spark. Hy ­drau lic oil and gas o line are flam ma ble and can ex ­plode.
NOTE:
This machine is equipped with an internal combustion engine (in it's standard configuration) and should not be used on or near any unimproved forest-covered, brush-covered or grass covered land unless the engine's exhaust system is equipped with a spark arrester meeting applicable laws.

Safety Decals and Placards
There are sev eral safety de cals and plac ards on the SR2770. Their lo ca tions and de scrip tions are shown in this sec tion. Take time to study them.
Be sure that all the safety decals and placards on the SR2770 are legible. Clean or replace them if you cannot read the words or see the pictures. Clean with soap & water and a soft cloth. Do not use solvents.
ENSURE you use an approved fuel container with appropriate fuel filler nozzle
Do not fill the fuel tank to ca pac ity. Al low room for ex pan sion.
If gasoline is spilled, clean up spilled fuel immediately, push/tow the SR away from the area of the spill and avoid creating any source of ignition until the spilled fuel has evaporated.
Tighten the fuel tank cap se curely. If the fuel cap is lost, re place it with an ap proved cap from Snor kel. Use of a non-ap proved cap with out proper vent ing may re sult in pres sur iza tion of the tank.
Never use fuel for clean ing pur poses.
For die sel en gines, use the cor rect fuel grade for the op er at ing sea son.
Batteries
Charge bat ter ies in a well ven ti lated area free of flame, sparks, or other haz ards that might cause fire or ex plo sion.
You MUST replace a decal or placard if it is damaged, missing, or cannot be read. If it is on a part that is replaced, make sure a new decal or placard is installed on the replaced part. See your Snorkel dealer for new decals and placards.
