FOREWORD
The purpose of this Operations and Safety manual is to provide users with the instructions and operating pro-
cedures essential to properly and safely operate the Custom Equipment Hy-Brid Lift for its intended purpose,
and to position personnel and their necessary tools and materials.
DANGER
THE OPERATION AND SAFETY MANUAL MUST BE READ
AND UNDERSTOOD PRIOR TO OPERATING THE MACHINE.
• The user/operator should not accept operating responsibility until the manual has been read and
understood as well as having operated the lift under supervision of an experienced and qualified
operator.
• Because the manufacturer has no direct control over machine application and operation, proper
safety practices are the responsibility of the user and all operating personnel.
WARNING
USE OF FALL ARREST SYSTEMS ATTACHED TO ANCHORAGE POINTS ON EQUIPMENT
MAY CAUSE MACHINE TO TIP, RESULTING IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
Fall protection notice: The guardrail system around the perimeter of the platform is the fall pro-tection
system for push-around elevating work platforms per the ANSI/SIA A92.3 Standard. It is prohibited to use an
Aerial Work Platform manufactured by Custom Equipment, Inc. With any portion—or all—of the guardrails
removed. Lanyard anchorage points on this type of equipment are not required to conform to the applica-
ble standard. However, if anchorage points for lan-yard attachments are required by site authorities or other
regulations, the anchorage points on all equipment manufactured by Custom Equipment, Inc. Are recom-
mended to be used for work positioning restraints of personnel only. Lanyard lengths are to be determined
by operator/owner to restrict the operator to the confines within the guardrail system.
