• Check work area clearances above, on sides, and bottom

of platform while moving, lifting or lowering platform.

• During operation keep all body parts inside platform rail-

ing.

• Exercise extreme caution at all times to prevent obstacles

from striking or interfering with operating controls and per-
sons in the platform.

• Ensure that operators of other overhead and floor level

machines are aware of the aerial work platform's pres-
ence. Disconnect power to overhead cranes.

• Warn personnel not to work, stand, or walk under a raised

platform. Position barricades on floor as necessary.
