the specific function of this system, see the
Section 2 “Travel speed limit system.”
(11) Travel Function Limit System
This system disables the travel function
according to various boom statuses and the tilt
angle of the machine. For the specific function
of this system, see Section 3 “Travel Function
Limit System.”
(12) Guardrails
There are guardrails on all sides of the platform
to help prevent persons in the platform from
falling off the platform. The entry gate is part
of the guardrail system and must be securely
fastened after entering the platform.
(13) Lanyard Anchorage Point
The lanyard anchorage points are to hook the
safety harness to.
Always use a safety harness in the platform.
All personal fall protective equipment must
