consultation, contact Wood's Powr-Grip (see LIMITED WARRANTY).
Never
disengage both the rotation latch and the tilt latch at the same time.
If the lifter is equipped with a Remote Control System,
never
operate the lifter remotely unless
there is clear communication about intended actions (eg, releasing load) with all personnel
near the lift. In addition, the operator must visually verify the status of the lifter and load
prior to remote operations.
