.
CAUTION
means one of two things: (1) an action, about to
be performed, is potentially hazardous and might
result in minor personal injury if not done
correctly, or (2) an action, about to be performed,
can harm the SR if not done correctly.
QUALIFIED OPERATORS
T
SR aerial platforms have built-in safety features
and have been factory tested for compliance with
Snorkel specifications and industry standards.
However, any personnel-lifting device can be
potentially dangerous in the hands of untrained
or careless operators.
Training is essential and must be performed by a
QUALIFIED person. Become proficient in
knowledge and actual operation before using the
SR on the job. You must be trained and
authorized to perform any functions of the SR.
Operation of the SR must be within the scope of
the machine specifications.
Before operating an SR you must read and
understand the operating instructions in this
manual as well as the decals, warnings, and
instructions on the machine itself.
Before operating an SR you must be
AUTHORIZED by the person in charge to do
so.
The following rules will help ensure the
safety of personnel and help prevent
needless downtime because of damaged
equipment.
1. Only TRAINED and AUTHORIZED operators
shall be permitted to operate the equipment.
2. All manufacturer’s operating instructions and
safety rules and all employers’ safety rules and
all OSHA and other government safety rules
must be strictly adhered to.
3. Repairs and adjustments shall be made only
by QUALIFIED TRAINED maintenance
personnel.
4. No modification shall be made to the

SAFE OPERATION
T
The following safety information is vitally
important for safe operation of an SR. Failure to
follow these instructions can result in personal
injury or DEATH.
Pre-start Inspection
Prior to each shift, the SR shall be given a visual
inspection and function test. (See the “DAILY
INSPECTION & MAINTENANCE” chapter in this
manual for a list of items to inspect and test.)
Do not operate an SR unless you are trained and
authorized, understand the operating
characteristics of the SR, and have inspected
and tested all functions to be sure they are in
proper working order. (See the “DAILY
INSPECTION & MAINTENANCE” chapter.)
Work Place Inspection and Practices
Do not use an SR as a ground for welding.
Ground to the work piece.
Before an SR is used, and during use, check the
area in which it is to be used for possible hazards
such as, but not limited to:
drop-offs or holes,
•
side slopes,
•
bumps and floor obstructions,
•
debris,
•
overhead obstructions and electrical
•
conductors,
hazardous locations,
•
inadequate surface and support to withstand
•
all load forces imposed by the aerial platform
in all operating configurations,
wind and weather conditions,
•
presence of unauthorized persons,
•
other possible unsafe conditions.
•
Before using the aerial platform in any hazardous
(classified) location, make certain it is approved
and of the type required by ANSI/NFPA 505 for
use in that particular location.
A recommended safety practice is to have
ground personnel, who are trained in the
operation of SR emergency controls, working in
the immediate vicinity of an elevated SR. In the
event of an emergency, they can assist the
platform operator.
1. SAFETY
1. SAFETY
1. SAFETY
When moving the platform, check the clearance
around the SR to avoid contact with structures or
other hazards. Always look in the direction of
motion.
Keep ground personnel from under the platform
when the platform is raised.
Secure all accessories, containers, tools, and
other materials in the platform to prevent them
from accidentally falling or being kicked off the
platform.
Do not engage in any form of “horseplay” or
“stunt driving” while operating an SR.
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 SR that is not functioning
properly, or has been damaged, until the
machine has been repaired by a qualified
maintenance person.
Do not operate an SR that does not have all its
decals and placards attached and legible.
Drive the machine with care and at speeds
compatible with conditions. Use extra caution
when driving over rough ground, on slopes, and
when turning.
Know and understand the job site traffic-flow
patterns and obey the flagmen, road signs, and
signals.
Watch for bystanders and never allow anyone to
be under, or to reach through, the machine and
its equipment while operating.

Electrocution
SR’s are all-metal, NON-INSULATED, aerial
work-platforms. Do not operate an SR near
ELECTRICAL conductors. Regard all conductors
as being energized.
Do not operate outside during a thunderstorm.
platform before attempts are made to free the
platform using ground controls.
Do not exceed the platform capacity nor the
platform-extension capacity shown on the
capacity placards located at the entrance to the
platform and on the toeboard of the platform
extension.
Tipover & Falling Hazards
On scissor lifts, like the SR, personal fall
protection is not required by ANSI, Federal
OSHA, nor Snorkel. However, fall restraint might
be required by work regulations. If so, the user is
responsible for fitness and method of use.
The guardrail system is your fall protection. Make
sure the guardrail system is properly installed
and that all gates and fasteners are in place.
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:
Where possible, place the work platform
•
next to a roof or walking structure to do
the transfer.
Transfer your anchorage from one
•
structure to another before you step
across.
Remember that you might be transferring
•
to a structure where
personal fall arrest
is required.
Do not raise the platform if the SR is on soft
ground. Raise the platform only on a firm surface
capable of withstanding all load forces imposed
by the aerial platform in all operating conditions.
Do not allow wires, cables, hoses, rope, or other
materials to trail down from the platform or be
entangled in the platform.
If you have to level an SR, that does not have
outriggers, be sure the shoring you use is strong
enough to support the weight of the SR and that
the SR wheels are chocked so that the SR
cannot be driven.
Do not jerk the controls. Move the controls slowly
and deliberately to avoid jerky and erratic
operation. Always stop the controls in the neutral,
off, position before going in the opposite
direction.
Do not use the platform for any purpose other
than to position personnel, their tools and
materials.
Do not use an SR as a crane, hoist, or jack.
Do not operate an SR in winds, or wind gusts, of
28 mph (12.5 m/s) or more.
Do not add anything to an SR that will increase
the wind loading (billboards, banners, flags, etc.).
Use the platform entrance, do not climb
•
over the guard rails.
Maintain a firm footing on the platform floor.
Climbing on the guardrails is prohibited.
Do not use ladders, planks, or other devices to
extend or increase your work position from the
platform.
Do not operate an SR from a position on trucks,
trailers, railway cars, floating vessels, scaffolds,
or similar equipment unless the application is
approved in writing by Snorkel.
If the platform or elevating assembly becomes
caught, snagged, or otherwise prevented from
normal motion by an adjacent structure, or other
obstacles, such that control reversal does not
free the platform, remove all personnel from the

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
T
Personnel Precautions
If you encounter any suspected malfunction of
the aerial platform, or any hazard or potentially
unsafe condition relating to capacity, intended
use, or safe operation, cease operation and seek
assistance from management.
Operator General Precautions
Make sure that all protective guards, cowlings,
and doors are in place and secure.
Mounting & Dismounting Precautions
Use three points of support when getting on or
off the platform. Keep the platform clean.
Do not jump off the machine.
Do not dismount while the machine is in motion.
1. SAFETY
Do not attempt repairs unless you are trained.
Refer to manuals and experienced repair
personnel for help.
Charge batteries in a well-ventilated area free of
flame, sparks, or other hazards that might cause
fire or explosion.
Use extreme caution when removing radiator
caps. Park the machine and let it cool down
before opening a pressurized compartment.
Fuel Handling Precautions
Do not smoke or permit open flames while
fueling or near fueling operations.
Maintain control of the fuel filler nozzle when
filling the tank.
Do not fill the fuel tank to capacity. Allow room
for expansion.
Starting and Stopping Precautions
Do not start until all personnel are clearly away
from the machine.
Before leaving the operator’s station, place the
machine in the stowed position.
Remove the starter key from the
set the
the machine parked or unattended.
Do not modify an SR in any way.
Do not override any of the safety features of an
SR.
Do not exceed the side-pull forces listed on the
capacity placards located at the entrance to the
platform and on the toeboard of the platform
extension.
Limit travel speeds according to conditions. Take
into account: grade, surface, congestion,
visibility, side slope, location of personnel, and
other hazards.
Do not use your hand to search for hydraulic oil
leaks. High pressure hydraulic oil can easily cut
and penetrate your skin — a very serious 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.

Never use fuel for cleaning purposes.
For diesel engines, use the correct fuel grade for
the operating season.
SAFETY DECALS & PLACARDS
T
There are several safety decals and placards on
an SR. Their locations and descriptions are
shown in this section. Take time to study them.
Be sure that all the safety decals and placards
on the SR 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.

Level Sensor
The level sensor alarm warns the SR operator
that the SR is not level. If the tilt continues to
increase, the SR 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.
NOTE: While the alarm is sounding it is not
possible to drive the SR nor raise the
platform.
T
GUARDRAILS
Lowering
The lowering alarm warns people near an SR
that the platform is coming down and the scissor
arm assembly is closing.
High Temperature
The high-temperature alarm warns you that the
engine is overheating. When the alarm sounds
you should immediately lower the platform
completely down then turn the engine off until the
condition that caused the overheating has been
corrected. (See “AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFFS &
CIRCUIT BREAKERS” chapter for more
information.)
Low Oil Pressure
The low pressure alarm warns you that the
engine oil pressure is near the lower limit for safe
operation 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 for more
information.)
The guardrails help protect you from falling off
the platform. Be sure the guardrails are properly
installed and that the safety chain (or gate) and
fasteners are in place.

the SR engine is running. There is no ON/OFF
switch for the flashing light, it cannot be turned
off while the SR is running.
LANYARD ANCHOR POINTS
T
There are four anchors on the floor of the
platform, one at the front of the roll-out deck, one
at the back of the platform, and one on each side
of the platform.
NOTE: These anchors are not for lifting or
tying down the machine.
You should attach your fall protection to the
anchors if work rules require it.

water-antifreeze mixture in the engine block. The
typical operating-temperature range for Kubota
engines is 180°F to 205°F (82°C to 96°C), both
diesel and gasoline. (See the “AUTOMATIC

AIR FILTER
The air filter gauge is located between the air
filter and the intake manifold. The gauge
measures the vacuum (air pressure) between the
intake manifold and the air filter. As the filter
clogs, the vacuum increases (pressure drops).
As the vacuum increases, a red indicator raises
toward the clear area of the gauge. When you
can see the indicator in the clear area of the
gauge, it’s time to change the air filter.
The indicator stays at its highest setting, it does
not go to the bottom of the gauge when the
engine is turned off or the filter changed. After
the filter is changed, press the small reset button
to reset the indicator to the bottom of the gauge.
gauge is located on the base-

Engine oil level is measured with a dipstick. Oil
capacities given in the “SPECIFICATIONS”
chapter are approximate. True values will vary
from machine to machine due to slight variations
or modifications during production. The oil
dipstick is the only way to accurately gauge if the
engine oil level is correct. Engine oil level should
