Safety Precautions
Know and understand the safety precautions before going on to next section.
WARNING
Failure to heed the following safety
precautions could result in tip over,
falling, crushing, or other hazards leading
to death or serious injury.
•
KNOW
all national, state/provincial and local
rules which apply to your aerial platform and job-
site.
•
TURN
the (emergency) main power disconnect
switch off when leaving the aerial platform unat-
tended. Remove the key to prevent unauthorized
use of the aerial platform.
•
WEAR
all the protective clothing and personal
safety devices issued to you or called for by job
conditions.
•
DO NOT
wear loose clothing,
dangling neckties, scarves,
rings, wristwatches or other
jewelry while operating this
aerial platform.
•
AVOID
entanglement
with
ropes, cords or hoses.
•
AVOID
falling. Stay within the
boundaries of the guardrails.
•
DO NOT
raise the aerial plat-
form in windy or gusty condi-
tions.
•
DO NOT
increase the lateral
surface area of the platform.
Increasing the area exposed
to the wind will decrease aerial
platform stability.
•
DO NOT
drive or elevate the
aerial platform if it is not on a
firm level surface. Do not drive
elevated near depressions
or holes of any type, loading
docks, debris, drop-offs and
surfaces that may affect the
stability of the aerial platform.
•
If operation in areas with
holes or drop-offs is abso-
lutely necessary
,
elevated
driving shall not be allowed.
Position the aerial platform
horizontally only with the
platform fully lowered. After
ensuring that all 4 wheels or
outriggers (if equipped) have
contact with level firm surface,
the aerial platform can be el-
evated. After elevation, the
drive function must not be ac-
tivated.
•
Elevated driving
must only
be done on a firm level sur-
face.
•
DO NOT
ascend or descend
a grade when elevated. When
fully lowered, ascending or
descending, only grades up
to rated maximum listed in
Table 2.1
are permissible.
