• The adjustable tray must be set at the same the same height as the load to be transferred onto it.
3.2.3 - Risk of electrocution
The machine is not electrically insulated and does not offer any insulation
protection.
The risks of electrocution are high in the following situations :
• Close to live power lines, consider the movement of the machine and the sway of the electric power
lines particularly in windy conditions.
• In the event that you were to make accidental contact with a high voltage line, wait for the power to
the line to be switched off before operating the machine.
• During storms.
Never use the machine as a welding earth.

3.2.4 - Risk of uncontrolled movement and overturning
When in the platform, respect the following instructions :
• Before operating the machine on any indoor or outdoor surface (premises, bridge,
truck, etc.), check that the surface is capable of supporting the combined machine
weight and platform capacity. Check the maximum value in the technical characteristics
( Section G 1-Main characteristics).
• Remain vigilant of driving direction reversal at the platform. Check the driving direction with the help
of the red or green arrow on the chassis relative to the red and green arrows on the platform control
box.
• Always ensure that the chassis is never driven any closer than 1 m(3 ft3 in) m to holes, bumps, tilts,
obstructions, debris and ground coverings that may hide holes and other dangers.
• During motion direction reversal from the platform or ground control box, the joysticks or switches
must be stopped in neutral position before reversing the direction of motion.
• Taking note of the overall load dimensions and weight, place the loads in the centre of the platform or
distribute them it a uniform manner.
• If the tilt alarm sounds when the platform is raised, lower platform completely, then reposition machine
onto level ground before raising platform.
N.B.-:-The Beaufort scale measures the wind force with a graduation system. A wind speed range at 10
m(32 ft9 in) above flat, clear land is associated with each degree.
• Do not drive the machine on slopes or tilts beyond the design limits. Check the maximum value in the
technical characteristics( Section G 1-Main characteristics).
• Do not travel down slopes at high speed.
• Do not use the machine (elevation and travel) on an incline greater than that permitted by the slope
sensor.
• Do not drive in reverse (direction opposite the field of vision).
• Never use the machine in winds exceeding the permissible limit.
• Do not increase the surface area exposed to wind. The greater the surface area exposed, the more
unstable the machine becomes.
For STAR 6 P only :
Only drive the machine when the goods to be transported on the tray are securely positioned. The
operator must have full visibility of the ground on which the machine is operating.
Some models have a zero wind rating and must not be exposed to wind forces. It should also be noted
that winds can occur inside buildings if external windows or doors are left open. Refer to the machine
identification plate to confirm the allowable wind load on the product being used.
