SECTION 1 - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1-8
3121170
• Never exceed the maximum work load as specified on the
platform. Keep all loads within the confines of the platform,
unless authorized by JLG.
• Keep the chassis of the machine a minimum of 2 ft. (0.6m)
from holes, bumps, drop-offs, obstructions, debris, concealed
holes, and other potential hazards at the ground level.
• Do not push or pull any object with the boom.
• Never attempt to use the machine as a crane. Do not tie-off
machine to any adjacent structure. Never attach wire, cable, or
any similar items to platform.
• If boom assembly or platform is in a position that one or more
wheels are off the ground, all persons must be removed before
attempting to stabilize the machine. Use cranes, forklift trucks,
or other appropriate equipment to stabilize machine.
• Do not operate the machine when wind conditions, including
gusts, may exceed 28 mph (12.5 m/s). Factors affecting wind
speed are; platform elevation, surrounding structures, local
weather events, and approaching storms. Refer to Table 1-2,
Beaufort scale (For Reference Only) or use other means to
monitor wind conditions.
• Wind speed can be significantly greater at height than at
ground level.
• Wind speed can change rapidly. Always consider approaching
weather events, the time required to lower the platform, and
methods to monitor current and potential wind conditions.
• Do not increase surface area of the platform or the load.
Increased areas exposed to wind will decrease stability.
• Do not increase the platform size with unauthorized modifica-
tions or attachments.
