Do not alter or disable the limit switches.
Do not tie the platform to adjacent structures.
Do not place loads outside the platform
perimeter.
Do not alter or disable 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 use batteries that weigh less than the
original equipment. Batteries are used as
counterweight and are critical to machine
stability. Each battery must weigh 28 kg. The
batteries must weigh a minimum of 112 kg.
(For ES0808H/E, ES1008H/E, ES0812H/E,
ES1012H/E); Each battery must weigh 30 kg.

Do not modify or alter an aerial work platform
without prior written permission from the

holding tools or other materials onto the
platform, toe boards or guard rail system can
increase the weight in the platform and the

Do not place ladders or scaffolds in the
platform or against any part of this machine.
Do not transport tools and materials unless
they are evenly distributed and can be safely
handled by person(s) in the platform.

exceeds the slope and side slope rating of the
machine.
Slope rating applies to machines only in the
stowed position.
Maximum slope rating stowed
