OPERA
TION
It is preferred that the platform be stored in the
upright position, preferably with a platform rest under
it to avoid high pressure spikes in the slave cylinder
when roading the unit. A platform rest is required if
the unit is equipped with a platform rotator.
LIFT EYE OPERATION (OPTIONAL)
OUTER BOOM LIFTING EYE - This aerial lift is
designed primarily as a personnel lift. The optional
lifting eye has been designed to accommodate
limited material handling.
LIFT EYE OPERATING PROCEDURES: Always
extend the outriggers (if so equipped) and fully
retract the inner boom when using the boom lifting
eye. Boom movements should be smooth to avoid
swinging the load. Do not exceed the load limits
stated on the decal beside the lifting eye (500 lbs.
max). Do not drag the load with the lifting eye. This is
a bad practice and subjects the unit to damaging side
loads. When lifting loads, position the outer boom
directly over the load before lifting. The platform
should be empty when lifting loads. The platform
must not be used for material handling. The
platform was designed to lift personnel only.
DANGER:
NEVER EXCEED THE RATED
LOAD CAPACITY OF THE AERIAL LIFT.
STRUCTURAL DAMAGE OR INSTABILITY CAN
RESULT CAUSING DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.
