EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
P10.0
DO NOT ALLOW PERSONNEL TO TAMPER WITH OR OPERATE THE
MACHINE FROM THE CAB WITH PERSONNEL IN THE PLATFORM
EQUIPPED WITH CONTROLS, EXCEPT IN AN EMERGENCY.
Auxiliary Power
A toggle type auxiliary power control switch is located on the platform control
station and another is located in the operators cab. Operation of either switch
turns on the electrically driven auxiliary hydraulic pump. This should be used
in case of failure of the main power plant. The auxiliary pump will operate any
boom function.
To activate auxiliary power from platform:
1. Depress and hold footswitch.
2. Position AUXILIARY POWER switch to ON and hold.
3. Operate appropriate control switch, lever or controller for desired function
and hold.
4. Release AUXILIARY POWER switch, select control switch, lever or controller,
and footswitch.
5. Position POWER/EMERGENCY STOP switch to OFF.
To activate auxiliary power from the cab control station:
1. Position CONTROL STATION SELECTOR switch to CAB.
2. Position POWER/EMERGENCY STOP switch to ON.
3. Position AUXILIARY POWER switch to ON and hold.
4. Operate appropriate control switch or controller for desired function and
hold.
5. Release AUXILIARY POWER switch, and appropriate control switch or
controller.
6. Position POWER/EMERGENCY STOP switch to OFF.
Operator Unable to Control Machine
If the platform operator is pinned, trapped or unable to operate or control the
machine:
1. Operate the machine from cab controls ONLY with the assistance of other
personnel and equipment (cranes, overhead hoists, etc.) as may be
required to safely remove the danger or emergency condition.
2. Other qualified personnel on the platform may use the platform controls
with regular or auxiliary power. DO NOT CONTINUE OPERATION IF
CONTROLS DO NOT FUNCTION NORMALLY.
3. Cranes, forklift trucks or other equipment which may be available are to
be used to remove platform occupants and stabilize motion of the machine
in case machine controls are inadequate or malfunction when used.
Platform or Boom Caught Overhead
If the platform or boom becomes jammed or snagged in overhead structures
or equipment, do not continue operation of the machine from either the platform
or the ground until the operator and all personnel are safely moved to a secure
location. Only then should an attempt be made to free the platform using any
necessary equipment and personnel. Do not operate controls to cause one or
more wheels to leave the ground.
Post Incident Inspection and Repair
Following any incident, thoroughly inspect the machine and test all functions
first from the cab controls, then from the platform controls. Do not lift above
10 feet (3 m) until you are sure that all damage has been repaired, if required,
and that all controls are operating correctly.
WARNING !
The platform must be completely
empty. Never allow personnel in
platform while towing, lifting, or
hauling.
WARNING !
In emergency situations, operator
must retract boom before lowering.
Failure to retract boom could cause
machine to tip over resulting in
injury or death.
