2.1. GENERAL
Because you, the operator, are the only part of the machine that can think and reason, your
responsibility is not lessened by the addition of operational aids or warning devices. Indeed,
you must guard against acquiring a false sense of security when using the machine. Control
and alarm devices are there to assist, NOT to direct the operation of the machine.
You, the operator, are the only one who can be relied upon to assure the safety of yourself and
those around you. Be PROFESSIONAL and follow the SAFETY RULES.
This machine must only be used and maintained by trained and authorised personnel. This
training must be provided by qualified personnel.
The operator must acquire a thorough understanding of the characteristics and operating limits
of this machine, regardless of experience acquired with similar equipment.

guardrails while the platform is moving.
•Prevent any obstacles from hitting or interfering with
operating controls or platform occupants.
•Exercise care so as not to lower the platform onto an
obstruction, particularly when the deck extensions are
deployed. It is recommended that the deck extensions
be fully retracted before lowering the platform.
•Warn the other platform occupants before
commanding a movement and possibly obtain their
agreement.
•Keep non-operating personnel away from the
machine's operating area. Warn ground personnel not
to stand or walk under the platform while it is
elevated.
•Ensure that operators of other machines at height and
on the ground are aware of the aerial work platform
presence. Position barricade on floor, if necessary,
and disconnect the power of the overhead cranes.
•Check work area for obstructions around, above and
below the platform before operating the platform.
•Limit the operating speed according to the condition of the ground, inclination, visibility, the
presence of personnel in the work area, obstructions in the path of the machine and all other
factors likely to result in a collision or injury.
•Post a lookout on the ground for guidance when vision is obstructed.
•Take braking or stopping distances into account based on the travelling or operating speed.
Reduce the travelling speed when moving along sloped ground (Platform in stowed position).
•Do not unhook the platform control station in order to control or operate the machine from
ground level. When operating the machine, the control station must be securely fastened to
the platform guardrail.
