SAFETY RULES
Do not modify or alter an aerial work platform
without prior written permission from the
manufacturer. Mounting attachments for holding
tools or other materials onto the platform, toeboards
or guard rail system can increase the weight in the
platform and the surface area of the platform or the
load.
Do not place or attach fixed or overhanging loads to
any part of this machine.
Do not place ladders or scaffolds in the platform or
against any part of this machine.
Do not use the machine on a moving or mobile
surface or vehicle.
Be sure all tires are in good condition, air-filled tires
are properly inflated and lug nuts are properly
tightened.
Do not use the machine as a crane.
Do not push the machine or other objects with the
platform.
Do not contact adjacent structures with the
platform.
Do not tie the platform to adjacent structures.
Do not place loads outside the platform perimeter.
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.
Do not drive the machine on or near uneven terrain,
unstable surfaces or other hazardous conditions
with the platform raised.
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 push off or pull
toward any object outside
of the platform.
Maximum allowable
manual force
400 N
Do not transport tools and materials unless they are
evenly distributed and can be safely handled by
person(s) in the platform.
Do not alter or disable machine components that in
any way affect safety and stability.
Do not replace items critical to machine stability
with items of different weight or specification.
