Transporting the Machine
Preparing for Transportation
Use the following procedure to prepare the aerial platform
for transportation.
1. Remove any unnecessary tools, materials, or other
loose objects from the platform.
2. Close and latch the component tray.
Transporting
The aerial platform may be moved on a transport vehicle.
Depending on the particular situation, the aerial platform
may be lifted with a forklift, driven, winched, or hoisted
onto a vehicle such as a truck or trailer. Lifting with a
forklift is the preferred method.
The equipment used to load, unload, and transport the
aerial platform must have adequate capacity. The empty
vehicle weight is listed in “Specifications” on page 18 and
is stamped on the serial number placard.
The user assumes all responsibility for:
•
Choosing the proper method of transportation.
•
Choosing the proper selection and use of transporta-
tion and tie-down devices.
•
Making sure the equipment used is capable of sup-
porting the weight of the aerial platform.
•
Making sure all manufacturer’s instructions and warn-
ings, regulations and safety rules of their employer,
the DOT, and/or any other state or federal law are
followed.
Lifting With a Forklift
Use the following procedure to lift the aerial platform with
a forklift.
1. Properly stow the aerial platform.
2. Remove all personnel, tools, materials, or other loose
objects from the platform.
3. Insert the forklift forks into the pockets on the side of
the machine.
Caution
Lifting the aerial platform with the forklift forks posi-
tioned improperly can produce enough force to dam-
age machine components. When lifting the machine
with a forklift, only use the designated lift points.
4. Do not raise the aerial platform higher than necessary
to transport it. Drive the forklift slowly and carefully
when transporting the aerial platform.
Winching
Use a winch to load and unload the aerial platform on
ramps that exceed the machine gradeability specification.
A winch may also be used when poor traction, uneven sur-
faces, or stepped ramp transition make driving hazardous.
Use the following procedure to winch the aerial platform
onto the transport vehicle.
1. Position the transport vehicle so the aerial platform
will not roll forward after it is loaded.
2. Remove any unnecessary tools, materials, or other
loose objects from the platform.
3. Drive the machine to the foot of the loading ramp
with the front wheels nearest the ramp. Make sure
the machine is centered with the ramps and that the
wheels are straight.
4. Properly stow the aerial platform.
5. Chock the wheels to prevent uncontrolled motion of
the aerial platform.
6. Insert the winch line through the folk lift points on the
front of the chassis.
Note: this machine is not fitted with a brake release, to
release the wheels while winching the machine needs
to be fully opperational with the joystick in the forward
position.
7. From the lower controls, pull the emergency stop
button outward.
8. Place the Control Selector Switch upward in the upper
controls position.
Note
The upper controls will not operate while the control
selector is in the lower position.
9. Enter the platform and close the gate.
10. From the upper controls, pull the emergency stop
button outward.
11. Remove the wheel chocks and use the joystick and
winch together to position the aerial platform on the
transport vehicle.
Warning
Damage to the aerial platform and/or drive system
may occur if the joystick is not held in the forward
position while the winching process is being carried
out .
