Trip and Fall Hazards

During operation, occupants in the platform must wear a

rized lanyard anchorage point. Attach only one (1) lan-
yard per lanyard anchorage point.

• Before operating the machine, make sure all gates are

closed and fastened in their proper position.

• Keep both feet firmly positioned on the platform floor

at all times. Do not climb on platform rails. Never use
ladders, boxes, steps, planks, or similar items on plat-
form to provide additional reach.

• Never use the boom assembly to enter or leave the

platform.

• Always use the intended access gate to enter or leave

the platform.

• Use extreme caution when entering or leaving plat-

the machine, maintain “three point contact” with the
machine, using two hands and one foot or two feet
and one hand during entry and exit.
