1.3 Operation
General
• Do not use the machine for any purpose other than positioning
personnel, their tools, equipment and materials.
• Never operate a machine that is not working properly. If a malfunction
occurs, stop operating the machine and contact ReechCraft.
• Unless in an emergency, do not allow personnel to tamper with, or
operate the machine from the ground with personnel on the platform.
• The operator will not elevate the platform unless the bearing surface is
stationary and capable of supporting the intended load.
• Always ensure that power tools are properly stowed and never left
suspended by their cord from the platform.
• Be sure to fully lower the platform completely and remove all power
before leaving the machine.
• No more than one person is allowed on the machine. Only the operator
is permitted in the platform during operation.
Fall Hazards
• Do not enter or leave the platform
while elevated.
• Before operating the machine, make
sure all mast sections, outriggers,
railings and gates are in their proper
position. Be sure the platform is
properly secured to the climbing unit
before operating the machine.
• Keep both feet firmly positioned on the
platform floor at all times. Never use
ladders, boxes, steps, planks or any
other item on the platform to provide
additional height for greater reach.
• Never use the mast or railings to enter
or leave the platform.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Always use extreme caution when entering or exiting the platform. Be
sure that the platform is fully lowered before exiting the platform.
• Always maintain three points of contact with the machine. “Three-Point
Contact” means using two hands and one foot or two feet and one
hand at all times while entering or exiting the platform.
Electrocution Hazard
• This machine is not insulated
and will not provide protection
from contact or proximity to
electrical current.
• Maintain distance from
electrical lines, apparatus or any
energized (exposed or insulated)
parts according to the Minimum
Approach Distance (MAD) as
shown inTable 1-1.
• Allow clearance for machine
movement and electrical
line swaying.
Table 1-1 Minimum Approach Distances (M.A.D.)

Over 350KV to 500KV 25 (8)
Over 500KV to 750KV 35 (11)
Over 750KV to 1000KV 45 (14)
NOTE: This requirement shall apply except where employer, local or
governmental regulations are more stringent.

• Maintain a clearance of at least 10 ft (3 m) between any part of the
machine and its occupants, their tools and their equipment from
any electrical line or apparatus carrying up to 50,000 volts. 1 ft (.3 m)
additional clearance is required for every additional 30,000 volts or less.
• The minimum safe approach distance may be reduced if insulating
barriers are installed to prevent contact, and if the barriers are rated for
the voltage of the line being guarded.These barriers shall not be part
of (or attached to) the machine.The minimum safe approach distance
shall be reduced to a distance within the designed working dimensions
of the insulating barrier.This determination shall be made by a
qualified person in accordance with employer, local or governmental
requirements for work practices near energized equipment.
DO NOT MANEUVER MACHINE OR PERSONNEL INSIDE PROHIBITED ZONE
(MAD). ASSUME ALL ELECTRICAL PARTS AND WIRING ARE ENERGIZED
UNLESS KNOWN OTHERWISE.
Tipping Hazards
• Be sure the
bearing surface is
solid, stationary
and capable of
supporting the
intended load.
• Before entering the
platform, ensure
that all outriggers
have been properly
installed and all
leveling jacks are
fully extended and
bearing weight.
• Check to be sure the chassis is level according to the bubble level
indicator on the chassis and all wheels are completely off the ground.
Note: the platform will not release from its docked position unless each
outrigger is in its proper position and bearing weight.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Do not perform work that will subject the
machine to a horizontal force or create a
swaying motion of the platform.
• The user should be familiar with the operating
surface. If there is a question related to
the stability of the ground condition, an
appropriate sill should be used to safely
spread the load of the machine and rated load
capacity.
• Do not elevate the platform on a slope greater
than what can be leveled and kept from
sliding by the outrigger leveling jacks and an
appropriate sill.
• Do not elevate if there is a safety concern related
to the stability of the bearing surface.
• Before using the machine on floors, bridges, and other surfaces, check
allowable capacity of the surfaces.
• Never exceed the maximum platform capacity. Distribute loads evenly
on platform floor.
• Keep the bearing pads of the outriggers a safe distance from holes,
bumps, drop-offs, obstructions, debris, concealed holes and other
potential hazards at the ground level.
• Never attempt to use the machine as a crane. Do not tie off machine to
any adjacent structure.
• Do not increase the platform size or height with unauthorized
extensions, attachments or steps, as personnel movement or added
height will decrease stability.
• If the mast or platform is caught so that one or more of the outrigger
bearing pads are off the ground, the operator must be removed before
attempting to free the machine.

Crushing and Collision Hazards
• Appropriate personal protection
equipment must be worn by all operating
and ground personnel.
• Check work area clearances above, on
sides and below platform while moving,
elevating or lowering platform.
• Be sure to keep all body parts inside the
platform railing during operation.
• Exercise extreme caution at all times
to prevent obstacles from striking or
interfering with operating controls (drill)
or person in the platform.
• Ensure that operators of other overhead
and floor level equipment or machines
are aware of the machine’s presence.
Disconnect power to overhead cranes.
• Warn personnel not to work, stand or walk under an elevated platform.
Position barricades on the floor as necessary.
