Tipping Hazards
• The user must be familiar with the surface before
driving. Do not exceed the allowable sideslope and
grade while driving.
• Do not elevate platform or drive with platform ele-
vated while on or near a sloping, uneven, or soft sur-
face. Ensure machine is positioned on a firm, level
and smooth surface before elevating platform or
driving with the platform in the elevated position.
• Before driving on floors, bridges, trucks, and other
surfaces, check allowable capacity of the surfaces.
• Do not raise the platform unless the machine is on
firm surfaces and outriggers are properly set.
• Never exceed the maximum work load as specified
on the platform. Keep all loads within the confines of
the platform, unless authorized by JLG.
• Keep the chassis and outriggers of the machine a
minimum of 2 ft. (0.6m) from holes, bumps, drop-
offs, obstructions, debris, concealed holes, and other
potential hazards at the ground level.
• Do not push or pull any object with the boom.
• Never attempt to use the machine as a crane. Do not
tie-off machine to any adjacent structure. Never
attach wire, cable, or any similar items to platform.
• Do not operate the machine when wind conditions
exceed 28 mph (12.5 m/s). Refer to Table 1-2, Beau-
fort Scale (For Reference Only).
• Do not increase the surface area of the platform or
the load. Increase of the area exposed to the wind
will decrease stability.
• Do not increase the platform size with unauthorized
deck extensions or attachments.
• If boom assembly or platform is in a position that
one or more outriggers are off the ground, all per-
sons must be removed before attempting to stabi-
lize the machine. Use cranes, forklift trucks, or other
appropriate equipment to stabilize machine.
