Do not raise the boom 
when wind speeds may 
exceed 28 mph/12.5 m/s. 
If wind speeds exceed 
28 mph/12.5 m/s when 
the boom is raised, lower 
the boom and do not 
continue to operate 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. 

 

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 drive the machine on or near uneven terrain, 
unstable surfaces or other hazardous conditions 
with the boom raised or extended. 

Do not use the machine as a crane. 

Do not push the machine or other objects with the 
boom. 

Do not contact adjacent structures with the boom. 

Do not tie the boom or platform to adjacent 
structures. 

Do not place loads outside the platform perimeter. 

  

Do not push off or pull 
toward any object 
outside of the platform. 

Maximum allowable 
manual force –

 AUS 

90 lbs / 400 N 

 

Do not alter or disable machine components that in 
any way affect safety and stability. 

Do not replace items critical to machine stability 
with items of different weight or specification. 

Do not replace factory-installed tires with tires of 
different specification or ply rating. 

Do not use air-filled tires. These machines are 
equipped with foam-filled tires. Wheel weight is 
critical to stability. 

Do not use the platform controls to free a platform 
that is caught, snagged, or otherwise prevented 
from normal motion by an adjacent structure. All 
personnel must be removed from the platform 
before attempting to free the platform using the 
ground controls.
