• Maintain a clearance of at least 10 ft (3m) between any

their equipment from any electrical line or apparatus
carrying up to 50,000 volts. One foot additional clear-
ance is required for every additional 30,000 volts or
less.

Tipping Hazards

• Ensure that the ground conditions are adequate to

support the maximum tire load indicated on the tire
load decals located on the machine. Do not travel on
unsupported surfaces.

• The user should be familiar with the driving surface

before driving. Do not exceed the allowable sideslope
and grade while driving.

• Do not elevate platform or drive with platform elevated

while on a sloping, uneven, or soft surface. Ensure
machine is positioned on a firm, level and uniformly
supported surface before elevating platform or driving
with the platform in the elevated position.

• Before driving on floors, bridges, trucks, and other sur-

faces, check allowable capacity of the surfaces.

• Never exceed the maximum work load as specified on

the platform. Distribute loads evenly on platform floor.
Keep all loads within the confines of the platform,
unless authorized by JLG.
