Fall Hazards
Do not use the machine as a personnel lifting
platform or step.
Do not stand on the load handling attachments.
Do not climb on the mast.
Tip-over Hazards
Do not raise the load unless the stabilizers (if
equipped) and legs have been fully lowered and
locked and the casters are in full contact with the
ground.
Do not raise the load unless the leg retainer pins
are properly inserted through the leg and the
base.
Do not remove the leg retainer pins while the
machine is loaded and/or raised.
Do not raise the load unless the machine is on a
firm, level surface.
Prior to use, check the work area for drop-offs,
holes, bumps, debris, unstable or slippery surfaces
or other possible hazardous conditions.
Do not raise the load unless the load handling
attachment is properly secured to the lift.
Do not use blocks to level the lift.
Do not move the lift with a raised load,
except for minor positioning.
Do not operate the lift in strong or gusty
winds. Increasing the load surface area will
decrease machine stability in windy conditions.
Do not leave a load raised when windy conditions
may occur unless the lift is properly guy-wired.
Do not cause a horizontal force or side load to the
machine by raising or lowering a fixed or
overhanging load.
