Electrical Hazard

Iftheplatform, scissorsarmassembly,or anyotherconductivepartof anSRTcontactsa high-voltageelec trical conductor, the result can be SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH for persons on or near the machine.
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 allow for sag and sway in the wires and the work platform. If an SRT 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 SRT. Suchcontactcould makeyour body a conductor to the other object creating an electrical shock hazard re
sulting in SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH. DO NOT attempt to enter or leave the SRT until you are sure the electricity has been tur ned off. IfanSRTisincontactwithaliveconductor,theplatformoperatorMUST warnotherson thegroundinthe vi
cinity of the SRTto STAY AWAY from the machine, since their bodies can also form a path for electricity to ground thus creating an electr ical shock hazard with possible ELECTROCUTION and DEATH.

DO NOT attempt to operate SRTground controls when the platform, scissors arm assembly, or any other conductingpartof the SRTis in contactwith electr ical wires or ifthereis an immediatedangerof such con tact.
Regard all conductors as energized. Personnelworking on or near an SRT must be continuously awareof electrical hazards, recognizing that
SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH can result if contact with an electrical wire does occur.

Pre-start Inspection
At the start of each work shift, the SRT shall be givena visual inspection and function test.See the “Daily Inspection and Maintenance” chapter 7, in this manual for a list of items to inspect and test.
CAUTION
DO NOT operate the SRT unless you are
trained and authorized, understand the operation characteristics of the SRT, and have inspected and tested all functions to be sure they are in proper working order.
Work Place Inspection and Practices
Do not use the SRT as a ground for welding. Ground to the work piece.
Before the SRT is used, and during use, check the area in which the SRT is to be used for possible hazards such as, but not limited to:
1. Drop-offs or holes.
2. Side slopes.
3. Bumps and floor obstructions.
4. Debris.
5. Overhead obstructions and electrical conductors.
6. Hazardous locations.
7. Inadequate surface and support to withstand all load forces imposed by the aerial platform in all operating configurations.
8. Wind and weather conditions.
9. Presence of unauthorized persons.
10. Other possible unsafe conditions.
Before the SRT is used, determine the hazard clas sification of any particular atmosphere or location according to ANSI/NFPA 505-1987.
AnySRT operatedinahazardous location must be approved and of the type required by ANSI/NFPA 505-1987.
When moving the platform, check the clearance around the SRT to avoid contact with structures or other hazards. Always look in the direction of mo tion.
Keep ground personnel from under the platform when the platform is raised.
Secureallaccessories,containers,tools,andother materials in the platform to preventthem from acci dentally falling or being kicked off the platform.
DONOTengageinany formof“horseplay”or“stunt driving” while operating the SRT.
DO NOT permit riders on the machine anyplace other than on the platform.
Remove all loose objects stored in or on the ma­chine, particularly in the platform. Remove all ob­jects which do not belong in or on the machine.
When other moving equipment is in the area, take special precautions to comply with local regula­tions regarding warnings.
Never steady the platform by positioning it against another platform.
DO NOT operate an SRT that is not functioning properly, or has been damaged, until the machine has been repaired by a qualified maintenance per son.
DO NOT operate a SRT that does not have all its decals and placards attached and legible.
Drivethemachine withcare andatspeedscompat iblewith conditions.Use extracaution when driving over rough ground, on slopes, and when turning.
Know and understand the job site traffic-flow pat terns and obey the flagmen, road signs, and sig nals.
Watchforbystanders and neverallowanyone tobe
­under, or to reach through, the machine and its
equipment while operating. Use the recommended transport device when
loading the machine.

1. Safety
Electrocution
The SRT is an all metal, NON-INSULATED, aerial work platform. DO NOToperate it near ELECTRICAL conductors. Regard all conductors as being energized.
DO NOT operate outside during a thunderstorm.
Tipover and Falling Hazards
On scissor lifts, like the SRT, personal fall protec tion is not required by ANSI, Fedral OSHA, AS1418-10-1996, NZ Code of Practice for Ele vating Work Platforms, nor Snorkel. However, fall restraint might be required by work regulations. If so,theuser isresponsible forfitnessand method of use.
DONOToperatethe SRTfroma positionontrucks, trailers, railway cars, floating vessels, scaffolds, or similar equipment unless the application is ap proved in writing by Snorkel.
If the platform or elevating assembly becomes caught,snagged, or otherwise preventedfrom nor­malmotion by anadjacentstructureor other obsta­cles such that control reversal does not free the platform, remove all personnel from the platform beforeattemptsare madeto freethe platformusing ground controls.
Under normal working conditions it is best not to transfer from the platform to another structure or vice versa, unless that is the safest way to do the job.Each situation must be judged separately tak­ing the work environment into account. The follow­ing guidelines apply:
1. Where possible, place the work platform next to 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 the rails. Use the entrance.
DO NOTexceed the platform capacity nor the plat
form-extensioncapacity asindicated on the capac ity placards located at the entrance to the platform and on the toeboard of the platform extension.
Care shall be taken to preventrope, electric cords, and hoses, etc., from becoming entangled in the aerial platform.
Maintain a fir m footing on the platform floor. Climbing on the guardrails is prohibited.
DO NOT use ladders, planks, or other devices to extendorincrease yourworkposition fromthe plat form.
-
DO NOTjerk the controls.Movethe controlsslowly and deliberately to avoid jerky and erratic opera
-
tion.Alwaysstop the controls in theneutral, off, po sition before going in the opposite direction.
DO NOT use the platform for any purpose other than to position personnel, their tools, and materi als.
DO NOT use the SRT as a crane, hoist, or jack.
-
DONOToperatetheSRTinwinds,orwind gusts,of 28 mph 12.5 m/s) or more.
DO NOTadd anything to the SRT that will increase the wind loading (banners, flags, etc.).
Crushing
Always look in the direction of travel. Avoid over­head obstructions.
Nevercover the floor grating or otherwise obstruct your view below.
Make sure the area below the platform is free of personnel before lowering.

1. Safety
Mounting and Dismounting Precautions
Use three points of support when getting on or off theplatform(two handsandone footora similarset of points). Keep the platform clean.
DO NOT jump off the machine. DONOTdismountwhilethemachineisinmotion.
Starting and Stopping Precautions
DO NOT start until all personnel are clearly away from the machine.
Beforeleavingtheoperator’sstation, place the ma chine in the stowed position.
When leaving the machine parked or unattended, removethe starter keyfrom the Key switchand set the Battery switch to off.
Operating Precautions
DO NOT modify the SRT in any way. Whenpartsorcomponentsare replaced,theyshall
be identical or equivalent to original Snorkel parts or components.
DO NOT override any of the safety features of the SRT.
Operator Maintenance Precautions
DO NOTfill the fuel tank tocapacity.Allow room for
expansion. Clean up spilled fuel immediately. Tighten the fuel tank cap securely. If the fuel cap is
lost, replace it with an approved cap from Snorkel. Use of a non-approved cap without proper venting may result in pressurization of the tank.
Never use fuel for cleaning purposes. For diesel engines, use the correct fuel grade for
the operating season.

Safety Decals and Placards
There are several safety decals and placards on the SRT. Their locations and descriptions are shown in this section. Take time to study them.
CAUTION
Be sure that all the safety decals and placards on the SRT 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.
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.
CAUTION
DO NOT use your hand to search for hydraulic
oil leaks.High pressure hydraulic oil can easily cut and penetrate your skin—averyserious injury that requires immediate attention by a medical specialist trained in that type of injury. Use a piece of cardboard or wood to search for hydraulic oil leaks.
DO NOT attempt repairs unless you are trained.Refer to manuals and experienced repair personnel for help.
Fuel Handling Precautions
DONOTsmokeorpermitopenflames whilefueling
or near fueling operations. Neverremove the fuel cap or refuel a gasoline en
gine while the engine is runningor hot.Neverallow fuel to spill on hot machine components.
Maintain control of the fuel filler nozzle when filling the tank.
Refer to Placards and Decals Inspection Chart and Drawing in the “Daily Inspection and Maintenance” chapter 7, for part numbers, location, and required quantities of all placards and decals.

Press the red EMERGENCY STOP switch cover down, at any time, under any conditions, and the entire machine stops, the engine turns off, and nothing moves. the EMERGENCY STOP switch must be up for anything on the SRT to work.
Press the large red EMERGENCY STOP button in and the entire machine stops, the engine turns off, and nothing moves.This switchmust be out (on) to control the SRT from the platform (turn the switch clockwise and it will pop out.
Alarms
Platform control box
There are two alarms on an SRT.One is located in the platform control box, the other is located in the ground control box.
SRT2670 – 11360A page 2 - 1
2. Safety Devices
Ground control box
The alarms are connected in parallel, they both emit the same pattern of sound at the same time. The different alarm sound patterns are shown in the table immediately below and discussed below the table.
Level sensor
The level sensor alarm warns the SRT operator that the SRT is not level. If the tilt continues to in crease, the SRT will eventually tip over. When you hear this alarm, immediately lower the platform completely down. When the platform is completely down, determine and correct the cause of the tilt before raising the platform again.
While the alarm is sounding it is not possible to drive the SRT nor raise the platform
Lowering
Thelowering alarm warns people near an SRTthat the platform is coming down and the scissor arm assembly is closing.
High temperature
Thehigh-temperature alarm warns youthat the en­gine is overheating. When the alarm sounds you should immediately lower the platform completely downthenturn theengineoff untilthecondition that caused the overheating has been corrected. (See “AutomaticShut-Offs & Circuit Breakers”chapter 5 for more information.)
-
The high-temperature, low oil-pressure, and alter nator not-charging alar ms are each a continuous tone.
The DRIVE (forward) and the platform-lowering alarms beep at one beep per second. DRIVE (re verse) beeps at two beeps per second. The level sensor alarm is a high-low warbling sound.
Low oil pressure
The low pressure alarm warns you that the engine oilpressure isnear the lowerlimitfor safeoperation of the engine. When the alarm sounds you should immediately lower the platform completely down then turn the engine off until the condition that caused the low oil pressure has been corrected. (See “Automatic Shut-Offs & Circuit Breakers” chapter 5 for more information.)
Drive (reverse)
The DRIVE (reverse) alarm alerts people that the SRT is traveling backward along the ground. This
-
alarm beeps twice as fast as the DRIVE (forward) alarm.
