Special Limitations

T40RT/T46JRT – 1430001

Special Limitations

Travel with the platform raised is limited to creep speed 

range.  Elevating  the  platform  is  limited  to  firm,  level 

surfaces only.

Danger

The elevating function shall ONLY be used when the 

work platform is level and on a firm surface.

The work platform is NOT intended to be driven over 

uneven, rough, or soft terrain.

Platform Capacity

Two people and tools may occupy the platform. The maxi-

mum platform capacity for the aerial platform is stated in 

the “Specifications” on pages 26 and 27.

Danger

DO NOT exceed the maximum platform capacity or 

the platform occupancy limits for this machine.

Manual Force

Manual force is the force applied by the occupants to 

objects  such  as  walls  or  other  structures  outside  the 

work platform.

The maximum allowable manual force is limited to 200 N 

(45 lbs) of force per occupant, with a maximum of 400 N 

(90 lbs) for two occupants.

Danger

DO NOT exceed the maximum amount of manual 

force for this machine.

Platform Overload Sensing System

All functions are stopped from the upper and lower con-

trols, when the platform overload limit is exceeded. The 

horn will sound intermittently and the platform overload 

light will blink until the excess load is removed from the 

platform. At that time, the machine functions are again 

operational.

If the platform becomes significantly overloaded, or if an 

upward force on the platform exceeds approximately 2225 

N (500 lb), the system will enter into error mode, stopping 

all functions from the upper and lower controls. The horn 

will then sound constantly and the overload light will stay 

illuminated at the upper and lower controls.

The system will remain in error mode until the excess 

load is removed from the platform and the emergency 

stop  button  or  start  switch  is  cycled  off  and  back  on, 

resetting the system. At that time, the machine functions 

are operational.

Caution

The emergency power system is for emergency low-

ering and stowing only. The length of time the pump 

can be operated depends on the capacity of the bat-

tery. Do not use this system for normal operation. 

If the platform overload sensing system is tripped while 

operating the machine or if the system is in error mode 

and can not be reset, the emergency power system may 

still be used for emergency machine operation from either 

the lower or upper controls.

Danger

The aerial platform can tip over if it becomes unstable. 

Death or serious injury will result from a tip-over ac-

cident. Do not exceed the capacity values indicated 

on the platform rating placard.

The  overload  sensing  system  is  not  active  when  the 

machine is being driven with the booms in the stowed 

position. This allows the machine to be driven without 

the system sensing an overload due to rough ground 

conditions.

To eliminate repeated tripping of the system during ma-

chine operation, there is a five second delay in machine 

functions following:

starting the engine.

placing the drive/boom selector switch in the boom 

position when the main boom is below horizontal and 

fully retracted.

removing excess load from the platform.

Beaufort Scale

Never operate the machine when wind speeds exceed 

12.5 m/s (28mph) [Beaufort scale 6]. Refer to Figure 1.
