SECTION 1 - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1-8
31215036
• Before driving on floors, bridges, trucks, and other surfaces,
check allowable capacity of the surfaces.
• Never exceed the maximum platform capacity as specified on
the platform. Keep all loads within the confines of the plat
-
form, 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
tracks 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, exceed specifications shown in Section 7.2 of this man
-
ual or as shown on the capacity placard of the platform bill
-
board. Factors affecting wind speed are; platform elevation,
surrounding structures, local weather events, and approach
-
ing storms.
• 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 cover or increase surface area of the platform or the
load. Do not carry large surface area items in the platform
when operating outdoors. The addition of such items
increases the exposed wind area of the machine. Increased
areas exposed to wind will decrease stability.
• Do not increase the platform size with unauthorized modifica
-
tions or attachments.
