DANGER ZONES, RISK OF CRUSH AND SHEAR INJURY
There are several main danger zones on and around the platform, that can be hazardous to the operator and any other persons
nearby.
ALWAYS stay clear of the area behind the
platform and the range of motion of the
platform.
ALWAYS beware of the crushing zone
between the platform sections when opening
or closing the platform.
WARNING
Impact by the platform will result in serious
bodily injury or death. To prevent people
from being hit by the platform, by objects
rolling off the platform or being caught in
pinch points or being pinched by the
moving parts of the ramp:
Keep visual control over the entire
working area of the ramp at all times,
including the area directly behind and
under the platform;
DO NOT allow any person to stand
near the ramp. Ensure at all times that
nobody stands under, or within reach
of the platform and its load.
WARNING
Parts of the body protruding into that
area can be crushed or sheared while
deploying or stowing the platform. This
will result in serious bodily injury.
Therefore, ALWAYS keep arms, feet
and clothing clear of pinch points and
moving parts of the ramp.
NEVER reach over or through any of
the moving parts of the ramp.
ALWAYS keep visual control over the
entire working area of the ramp.
