Operation
The aerial platform has built-in safety features and has
been factory tested for compliance with Snorkel specifi-
cations and industry standards. However, any personnel
lifting aerial platform can be potentially dangerous in the
hands of untrained or careless operators.
A
Warning
The potential for an accident increases when the
aerial platform is operated by personnel who are
not trained and authorized. Death or serious injury
can result from such accidents. Read and under-
stand the information in this manual and on the plac-
ards and decals on the machine before operating
the aerial platform on the job.
Training is essential and must be performed by a quali-
fied person. Become proficient in knowledge and actual
operation before using the aerial platform on the job. You
must be trained and authorized to perform any functions
of the aerial platform. Operation of the aerial platform must
be within the scope of the machine specifications.
The operator bears ultimate responsibility for following all
manufacturer’s instructions and warnings, regulations and
safety rules of their employer and/or any state or federal
law.
Maintenance
Every person who maintains, inspects, tests, or repairs
the aerial platform must be qualified to do so. Following
the daily prestart inspection in this Operator’s Manual
will help keep the aerial platform in optimum working con-
dition. Other maintenance functions must be performed
by maintenance personnel who are qualified to work on
the aerial platform.
Do not modify this aerial platform without prior written
consent of the Snorkel Engineering Department. Modifi-
cation may void the warranty, adversely affect stability, or
affect the operational characteristics of the aerial plat-
form.
Manual of Responsibilities
All owners and users of the aerial platform must read,
understand, and comply with all applicable regulations.
Ultimate compliance to OSHA regulations is the respon-
sibility of the user and their employer.
ANSI publications clearly identify the responsibilities of
all personnel who may be involved with the aerial plat-
form. A reprint of the “Manual of Responsibilities for Deal-
ers, Owners, Users, Operators, Lessors and Lessees of
ANSI/SIA A92.5-1992 Boom-Supported Elevating Work
