INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing and using the machinery of
Hunan Sinoboom Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd. Al-
ways read, understand and become familiar with the
operation requirements of the machine and its associ-
ated safety procedures before operating, maintaining
and repairing the machine. Operating the machine with-
out becoming familiar with its specific operation require-
ments and safety procedures poses serious risks.
Operators who follow safety rules and operate the ma-
chine carefully and effectively will prevent personal in-
jury, property loss and accidents.
Use this machine only to transport tools to work loca-
tions and for performing tasks on the work platform. Op-
erators must be competent and must obtain training to
carefully use the machine and follow safety procedures.
Only trained and authorized personnel may operate the
machine.
This manual guides the operator in operating and using
the machine. The operator is responsible for reading,
