Tip-Over Hazards
Occupants and equipment shall not exceed the maximum capacity of the platform or the platform
extension
.
Refer to the Specifications for maximum capacity of the platform and platform extension.
Do not raise the platform unless the machine is on a firm, level surface.
Do not depend on the tilt alarm as a level indicator. The tilt alarm sounds on the chassis only when the
machine is on a slope.
If 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 alter or disable limit switches.
Do not drive over 0.64 ft/s (0,7 km/h) with the platform raised.
Use extreme care and slow speeds while driving the machine in the stowed position across uneven
terrain, debris, unstable or slippery surfaces and near holes and drop-offs.
Do not use the platform controller to free a platform that is caught, snagged or otherwise prevented from
normal motion by an adjacent structure. AII personnel must be removed from the platform before
attempting to free the platform using the ground control panel.
Do not push off or pull toward any object outside of the platform.
Do not tie the platform to adjacent structures.
Do not place loads outside the platform perimeter.
Do not alter or disable machine components that in any way affect safety and
stability.
Do not modify an aerial work platform.
Mounting attachments for holding tools or other materials onto the platform,
floor plate or guard rail system can increase the weight in the platform and the surface area of the
platform or the load.
Do not replace items critical to machine stability with items of different weight or specification.
Do not raise the platform when wind speeds may exceed 12,5 m/s. If wind speeds exceed 12,5 m/s
when the platform is raised, lower the platform and stop operating the machine.
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.
