Do not raise the platform
unless the machine is on a
firm, level surface.
Do not depend on the tilt
alarm as a level indicator.
The tilt alarm sounds at the
platform controls and the
ground controls when the
machine is on a severe 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.
Do not drive over 0.5 mph / 0.8 km/h with the
platform raised.
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.
Outdoor Use: Do not operate the machine
outdoors with the indoor use button selected.
Do not operate the machine
in strong or gusty winds. Do
not increase the surface area
of the platform or the load.
Increasing the area exposed
to the wind will decrease
machine stability.

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 push the machine or other objects with the
platform.
Do not contact adjacent structures with the
