3.   Enter the Platform through the entrance at the rear of the MB20/26J and ensure that the 

drop bar is in position. Raise and lock the entry step.

4.   Before using the machine all local Safety Regulations involving helmets and restraining 

devices should be observed. Safety harness lanyards, not exceeding 1 metre in length, 

should be attached to anchor points in cage floor.

5.   Check if the audible alarm sounds due to un-level ground. None of the functions can

4.   Check that the route is clear of persons, obstructions, pot holes or ledges and is capable 

of supporting the wheel loads. Also, check that the clearances above, below, and to the 

side of the Work Platform are sufficient. 

5.   To steer the MB20/26J, activate the Deadman Switch while pushing the Steering 

Thumb-switch, on top of the Joystick, LEFT or RIGHT to turn the wheels. Observe the 

tyres while manoeuvring to ensure correct direction.

Refer to Tables 1 & 2 for controls and indicators.

NOTE: 

The Work Platform will travel at reduced speed when in the elevated position.

of supporting the wheel loads. Also, check that the clearances above, below and to the 

side of the Work Platform are sufficient.

2.   Ensure that the pothole guards remain in the extended (down) position during elevated 

travel.
