and subjects the unit to damaging side loads.
When lifting loads, position the lower boom directly
over the load before lifting. The platform should
be empty when lifting loads. When the truck is not
level, extreme caution must be used when rotating
loads toward the low side because the truck stability
will be affected. The platform must not be used for
material handling. The platform was designed to lift
personnel only.
DANGER:
INCREASING THE HORIZONTAL
DISTANCE FROM THE TRUCK TO THE LOAD
WILL REDUCE THE STABILITY OF THE TRUCK
AND MAY RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS
INJURY.
MANUAL JIB OPERATION
(If Equipped)
The optional material handling system is designed to
lift loads to the work site at the platform. The main
components of this system are the sheave, winch
line, jib pole, and the winch. The jib pole tilts and
rotates manually. Although some of the components
of the jib and winch are made from non-conductive
materials, they are not tested or maintained as
insulating. Therefore, the entire jib and winch
assembly, including the jib pole and rope, must be
considered conductive and have no insulating value.

DANGER:
DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY
MAY RESULT FROM MISUSE OR FAILURE
CAUSED BY MISUSE OF THE AERIAL LIFT OR
ITS COMPONENTS. BEFORE OPERATION,
KNOW THE INSTRUCTIONS AND LIMITATIONS
OF THE LIFT AND THE MATERIAL HANDLING
SYSTEM.
DANGER:
DO NOT DEPEND ON THE JIB
POLE FOR INSULATION UNLESS THE POLE HAS
BEEN RATED, TESTED, AND MAINTAINED FOR
THE APPROPRIATE LINE VOLTAGE. THE WINCH
ROPE IS NOT CONSIDERED INSULATING.
IMPROPER USE OF THE JIB POLE OR WINCH
ROPE MAY RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS
INJURY.
Jib Pole Tilt Angle - The jib pole can be manually
tilted into one of six positions. To adjust the jib pole,
follow the sequence below:
1. Remove any load from the jib and winch
assembly. Never attempt to adjust the jib while
under load.
2. Remove the jib tilt lock pin.
3. Tilt the jib to the desired position.
4. Fully replace the lock pin.
Jib Rotation - The jib pole assembly can be rotated
to one of seven different positions to accommodate
a load. These load lifting positions are located at
15°, 45° and 75° to either side of the boom. See
Figure 4.7.
To rotate the jib assembly, follow the sequence
below:
1. Remove any load from the jib and winch
assembly. Never attempt to rotate the jib while
under load.
2. Remove the jib rotation lock pin.
3. Rotate the jib to the desired position.
4. Fully replace the lock pin.
DANGER:
ALL JIB-POLE POSITIONING
ADJUSTMENTS MUST BE MADE BEFORE
ENGAGING A LOAD. ADJUSTMENT OF THE
ASSEMBLY WITH A LOAD MAY CAUSE DEATH
OR INJURY TO THE OPERATOR AND DAMAGE
TO THE EQUIPMENT.
DANGER:
NEVER OPERATE THE JIB-
POLE ASSEMBLY UNTIL THE ASSEMBLY
TURRET IS LOCKED IN A LOAD LIFTING
POSITION AND THE VARIOUS LOCK PINS ARE
SECURE. A LOAD SHIFT CAN CRUSH THE
OPERATOR AND CAUSE DEATH OR SERIOUS
INJURY.
