Attach only one fall restraint device to each lanyard

anchor.

Do not use the aerial platform for personal fall

arrest anchorage.

Tilt Alarm

If the aerial platform chassis is out of level more than five

degrees when the main boom is raised or extended, or

when the riser boom is raised, an alarm will sound. The

tilt alarm is located under the upper control panel.

Danger

The aerial platform can tip over if it becomes unstable.

Death or serious injury will result from a tip-over ac-

cident. Do not drive or position the aerial platform for

elevated use near any drop-off, hole, slope, soft or

uneven ground, or other tip-over hazard.

Completely lower the booms and then drive to a level

surface when the tilt alarm sounds.

The tilt alarm is for added protection and does not

justify operating on anything other than firm, flat, level

surfaces.

Horn

The horn may be used to warn personnel on the ground.

The horn switch is to the right of the emergency stop

button on the upper control panel (refer to Figure 4.8).

The horn is operational when the machine is set up for

operation from the upper controls.

All Motion Alarm

The all motion alarm sounds, in short beeps, anytime the

machine functions are being operated. The alarm is used

to warn personnel in the work area to stand clear.

Flashing Light

An amber flashing light may be located on the top of the

turntable. The flashing light warns personnel that the

aerial platform is in the area.

The light flashes at approximately one flash per second

when the machine is set up for operation from either the

lower or upper controls.
