SAFETY RULES

Do not depend on the tilt alarm as a level indicator.

The tilt alarm sounds on the chassis and in the

platform when the machine is on a severe slope.

If the tilt alarm sounds:

Lower the platform. Move the machine to a firm,

level surface. If the tilt alarm sounds when the

platform is raised, use extreme caution to lower the

platform.

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.

Donotdrivethe machine on or near uneven terrain,

unstablesurfaces orotherhazardousconditions

with the platform raised.

Use extreme care and slow speeds while driving

the machine in the stowed position across uneven

terrain,debris,unstableor slippery surfaces and

nearholesanddrop-offs.

Do not alter or disable the limit switches.

Do not drive over 0.5 mph / 0.8 km/h with the

platformraised.

Do not raise the platform unless the machine is on

a firm, level surface.

Do not use the platform controls to free a platform

thatiscaught,snagged or otherwiseprevented

from normal motion by an adjacent structure. All

personnelmustberemovedfromtheplatform

before attempting to free the platform using the

groundcontrols.

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.
