Safety
Tip-over Hazards
DO NOT exceed the maximum platform capacity (see Specifications). The weight of options
and accessories will reduce the rated platform capacity and must be factored into the total
platform load. Refer to the decals on the options.
DO NOT elevate the platform when the machine is on a surface that is soft and / or on a slope.
If the alarm sounds when the platform is raised, use extreme caution to lower the platform.
Driving:
DO NOT drive the machine on a slope that exceeds the maximum uphill, downhill
or side slope rating. Slope rating applies to machines in the stowed position.
Slope rating is subject to ground and traction conditions.
Driving in stowed position:
use extreme care and slow speeds when driving across uneven
terrain, debris, unstable or slippery surfaces, and near holes or drop-offs.
Driving with the platform elevated:
DO NOT drive on or near uneven terrain, unstable
surfaces or other hazardous conditions.
DO NOT push off or pull toward any object outside the platform.
DO NOT elevate the platform when wind speeds are in excess of 28 m.p.h. (12.5 m/s). If these
wind speeds occur when the platform is elevated, carefully lower and discontinue operation.
DO NOT increase the surface area of the platform (i.e. cover the rails with tarp or plywood).
Increased surface area exposed to the wind will decrease machine stability.
DO NOT attach overhanging loads or use the machine as a crane.
DO NOT transport tools and materials unless they are evenly distributed and can be safely
handled by personnel in the platform. Secure all tools and loose materials to prevent injury to
personnel below the platform.
DO NOT alter or disable machine components that may affect safety and stability.
DO NOT replace items critical to machine stability with items of different weight or
specification.
DO NOT modify or alter the work platform without written permission from MEC, as
modifications can increase weight and/or surface area resulting in instability.
DO NOT place ladders or scaffolds in the platform or against any part of the machine.
DO NOT use the machine on a moving or mobile surface or vehicle.
Ensure that all tires are in good condition, air filled tires are properly inflated and lug nuts are
properly torqued.
