Operation
Elevating Personnel
1. Make sure there are no overhead obstructions or electrical wires above the
platform before lifting.
2. A trained operator must operate the controls from the operators compart-
ment and must remain with the vehicle at all times. Using extreme caution,
lift and lower personnel smoothly and only at their request. The operator
should move the platform up and down only in response to instruction from
personnel on the platform. If the operator must move the platform, the
operator must alert the personnel aboard the platform before moving.
3. Personnel aboard the work platform must maintain a firm footing at all
times.
4. Be certain the personnel and related equipment on the platform do not
exceed the available space of the platform.
5. The platform shall be lowered to the ground level for personnel to enter or
exit the platform through the appropriate platform access opening. Person-
nel must not climb on any part of the vehicle or over the platform guardrails
in an attempt to enter or exit the platform.
6. Always position the platform in the travel position (approximately one foot
above ground level) before moving the vehicle.
IMPORTANT! Make sure that required restraining equipment such as railings,
chains, cable, body belts with lanyards, etc. are in place and properly used. Never
use railings, planks, ladders, etc. on the platform for the purpose of achieving
additional reach or height.
WARNING:
Never operate the Attachment Tilt function to tilt the
platform forward or rearward when elevating with personnel aboard.
Death or serious personal injury could result.
DANGER:
Never operate this or any equipment in an area in
which overhead or underground cables or power sources exist without
first requesting that the appropriate power company or utility company
de-energize the lines or take other suitable precautions.
