AZARDS

DO NOT

 exceed the maximum platform capacity. The weight of options and 

accessories will reduce the rated platform capacity and must be factored into the 

total platform load. Refer to the decals on the options.

DO NOT

 elevate the platform when the machine is on a surface that is soft 

and / or on a slope.

DO NOT

 depend on the tilt alarm as a level indicator. 

STOP if the tilt alarm sounds and the red light illuminates when the platform is 

raised. Use extreme caution to lower the platform. Move the machine to a rm, 

level surface.

Driving: 

DO NOT

 drive the machine on a slope that exceeds 

the maximum uphill or downhill slope rating. Slope rating applies to machines in 

the stowed position.

Driving in stowed position: use extreme care and reduce speed when driving 
across uneven terrain, debris, unstable or slippery surfaces, and near holes or 
drop-offs.

Driving with the platform elevated: 

DO NOT

 drive on or near uneven terrain,  

unstable surfaces, curbs, drop-offs or other hazardous conditions.

DO NOT

 push or pull toward any object outside the platform. 

DO NOT 

push the machine or other objects with the platform. 

DO NOT

 contact adjacent structures with the platform. 

DO NOT

 use the platform controls to free a platform that is caught, snagged or 

otherwise prevented from normal motion by an adjacent structure. For outdoor 
rated machines, 

DO NOT

 elevate the platform when wind speeds are in excess 

12,5 m/s. If wind speeds exceed 12,5 m/s when the platform is elevated, carefully 
lower the platform and discontinue operation.

DO NOT

 increase the surface area of the platform (i.e. cover the rails with tarp 

or plywood). Increased surface area exposed to the wind will decrease machine 
stability.

DO NOT

 attach overhanging loads or use the machine as a crane. 

DO NOT

 place loads outside the platform perimeter.

NEVER

 transport tools and materials unless they are firmly secured. Secure all 

tools and loose materials.

NEVER

 alter or disable any machine components.

NEVER

 replace any part of the machine with items of different weight or 

specification.

NEVER

 modify or alter the work platform without written permission from GMG.

NEVER

 place ladders or scaffolds in the platform or against any part of the 

machine.

NEVER

 use the machine on a moving or mobile surface or vehicle.

Ensure that all tires are in good condition and lug nuts are properly torqued.

DO NOT

 operate the machine with the chassis trays open.

DO NOT

 alter or disable the limit switches or machine components that in any 

way affect safety and stability.

DO NOT

 replace items critical to machine stability with items of different weight 

or specification. 

DO NOT

 modify or alter this machine without prior written  

permission from the manufacturer.

DO NOT

 use batteries that weigh less than the original equipment. Each battery 

must weigh 25 kg. The batteries must weigh a minimum of 50 kg.
