Do not depend on the tilt alarm as a level indicator.
The tilt alarm sounds in the platform only when the
machine is on a severe slope.
If the tilt alarm sounds while the boom is lowered:
Do not extend, rotate or raise the boom above
horizontal. Move the machine to a firm, level
surface before raising the platform.
If the tilt alarm sounds when the platform is raised,
use extreme caution. Identify the condition of the
boom on the slope as shown below. Follow the
steps to lower the boom before moving to a firm,
level surface. Do not rotate the boom while
lowering.
If the tilt alarm sounds
with the platform uphill:
1
Lower the primary
boom.
2
Lower the secondary
boom.
3
Retract the primary
boom.
If the tilt alarm sounds
with the platform
downhill:
1
Retract the primary
boom.
2
Lower the secondary
boom.
3
Lower the primary
boom.
Do not alter or disable the limit switches.
Do not drive over 0.7 mph/1 km/h with the primary
boom raised or extended or the secondary boom
raised.
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.
Do not raise the boom when wind speeds may
exceed 28 mph/12.5 m/s. If wind speeds exceed
28 mph/12.5 m/s when the boom is raised, lower
the boom 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.
Increasing the area
exposed to the wind will
decrease machine
stability.
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 boom raised or extended.
