SAFETY
1.
Use only a synthetic rope for the winch line. Do not use a wire rope.
2.
Do not permit personnel to be under loads being lifted.
3.
Do not use winch or load line to raise personnel off the ground.
4.
Do not allow rope to contact energized power lines. Do not rely on the rope being non-conductive.
5.
Keep the winch rope clean and dry.
6.
Inspect the winch rope daily. Do not operate with a damaged or frayed rope.
7.
Use a sling. Do not use the winch rope as a sling.
8.
Use only hooks with a safety latch.
9.
Do not overload. The load chart supplied with each Aerial Device gives the machine capacity.
10. Know the weight of the load you are lifting. Do not guess.
11. The jib and winch are designed for vertical loads only. Center the load line directly above the load before
lifting.
12. Do not use the jib and winch to pull or string line.
13. Do not pull poles or objects embedded in the ground. It is impossible to know the force applied and will
overload the unit.
14. Lifting the load will cause deflection in the Aerial Device. Allow adequate clearance when applying and
removing the load.
15. When using the jib as a line lifter, remove the rope from the sheave.
16. Use only approved and tested hot line tools for lifting energized conductors. Clean and inspect all
fiberglass on the conductor lifter before use. Dirty or damaged fiberglass may be conductive.
17. If this Aerial Device is equipped with a boom lifting eye, the boom position and lifting capacity must not
be exceeded.
18. Personnel or load shall not be allowed in the platform when utilizing the boom lifting eye.
1.
Never travel with personnel in the platform.
2.
Never travel with the booms raised.
3.
Store booms properly in the boom rest. Lower the lower boom fully before lowering upper boom into the
rest.
4.
Lock boom(s) in place with hold down system.
5.
Keep all tools or other items properly stored on the vehicle while traveling. Otherwise, they may fall onto
the roadway.
6.
Fully retract the outriggers, store outrigger pads, and wheel chocks.
7.
Disengage the power take-off to prevent damage.
8.
Ensure platform liner is retained during travel with platform cover or clips to prevent loss.
9.
Follow the vehicle manufacturer's instructions for operating the vehicle.
Drive Carefully!
