fully trained in its safe use, are medically fit and have
read and fully understood these instructions.
NEVER
leave the AB38 unattended with the Platform
in the raised position.
ALWAYS
position the machine on firm level ground
with a minimum bearing capacity of 550 kN/m
2
(80 psi).
CHECK
that no overhead obstructions exist within
the machines range of movement.
DO NOT
work within 3 metres (10 feet) of live
overhead cables. Set up warning tape barrier at the
safe distance.
(THIS MACHINE IS NOT INSULATED).
DO NOT
exceed the safe working load of 215 kg
(475 lbs), (max. 2 persons plus 55 kg (120 lbs)
equipment)
NEVER
sit, stand or climb on guard rail or midrail of
the platform.
NEVER
use ladders or scaffolding on the platform.
DO NOT
use the machine as a crane or for any other
application involving additional loads or forces. The
maximum side force
must not exceed 400 N
(90 ft. lbs).
DO NOT
increase wind loadings by fitting items such
as sign boards, flags etc. to the cage or boom.
DISTRIBUTE
all loads evenly on the platform. See
Table 1-1 for maximum platform load.
NEVER
use damaged equipment. (Contact UpRight
Ireland Ltd. for instructions).
NEVER
attach overhanging loads or increase the
size of the working platform.
DO NOT
use in winds exceeding 12.5 m/s (28 mph -
Beaufort Force 6)
NEVER

systems.
INSPECT
the machine thoroughly for cracked welds,
loose hardware, hydraulic leaks, damaged control

NEVER
climb down an elevating assembly with
platform elevated.
NEVER
perform service on or in the elevating
assembly while the platform is elevated without first
blocking the elevating assembly.
NEVER
recharge batteries near sparks or open
flame; batteries under charge emit highly explosive

by turning Keyswitch off and removing key from
switch.
NEVER
replace any component or part with anything
other than original UpRight replacement parts without
the UpRight’s consent.
