Guardrails
The guardrails (refer to Figure 4.6) help protect personnel
from falling off the platform.

A top rail
A mid rail
An entry gate
A wallboard loading gate
Toeboards around the sides of the platform.
Figure 4.6 – Upper Controls
The entry gate allows for access to the platform. The
gate must be securely latched except when personnel
are entering or leaving the platform.
The wallboard loading gate can be used for loading work
materials in the platform. The gate must be securely
fastened closed except when personnel are loading or
unloading work materials in the platform.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
The electrical power outlet (refer to Figure 4.7), at the

Tilt Alarm
An alarm will sound if the aerial platform chassis is out of
level more than two degrees side-to-side or four degrees
front-to-rear when the platform is raised.
Danger
The aerial platform can tip over if it becomes unstable.
Death or serious injury will result from a tip-over
accident. Do not drive or position the aerial platform
for elevated use near any drop-off, hole, slope, soft
or uneven ground, or other tip-over hazard.
Completely lower the platform and drive to a level surface
when the tilt alarm sounds.
The tilt alarm is for added protection and does not justify op-
erating on anything other than firm, flat, level surfaces.
Horn
The horn may be used to warn personnel on the ground.
The horn is operational when the machine is set up for
operation from the upper controls.
The horn button is located on the upper control panel
(refer to Figure 4.8).

Flashing Light
An optional red or amber flashing light may be located
at the rear of the aerial platform. The flashing light warns
personnel that the aerial platform is in the area.
The light flashes at about one flash per second when the
machine is set up for operation from the upper controls.
