Secton 3 - Safety Rules and Hazards
Do not depend on the tilt alarm as a level indicator. The tilt alarm sounds on the chassis and in the
platform when the machine is on a slope.
If the tilt alarm sounds:
Lower the platform. Move the machine to a firm, level surface. If the tilt alarm sounds when the
platform is raised, use extreme caution to lower the platform.
For outdoor use, do not raise the platform when wind speeds may exceed 28 mph (12.5 m/s). If wind
speeds exceed 28 mph (12.5 m/s) when the platform is raised, lower the platform and do not continue
to operate the machine.
Do not operate the machine in strong or gusty winds. Do not
increase the surface area of the platform or the load when
exposed to wind. Increasing the area exposed to the wind will
decrease machine stability.
Do not use the platform controls to free a platform that is
caught, snagged or otherwise prevented from normal motion by
an adjacent structure. All personnel must be removed from the
platform before attempting to free the platform using the ground
controls.
Use extreme care and slow speeds while driving the machine in the stowed position across uneven
terrain, debris, unstable or slippery surfaces and near holes and drop-offs.
Do not drive the machine on or near uneven terrain, unstable surfaces or other hazardous conditions
with the platform raised.
Do not use the machine as a crane.
Do not place or attach fixed or overhanging loads to any part of this machine.
Do not push the machine or other objects with the platform.
Do not contact adjacent structures with the platform.
Do not alter or disable the limit switches.
Do not tie the platform to adjacent structures.
Do not transport tools and materials unless they are evenly
distributed and can be safely handled by person(s) in the
platform.
Do not alter or disable machine components that in any way affect safety and stability.
