Manuals
Operating
The operating manual is considered a fundamental part of the aerial platform. It is a very important way to
communicate necessary safety information to users and operators. A complete and legible copy of this manual
must be kept in the provided weather-resistant storage compartment on the aerial platform at all times.
Service & Maintenance
The purpose of this is to provide the customer with the servicing and maintenance procedures essential for

All information in this manual should be read and understood before any attempt is made to service the machine.
The updated copy of the manuals are found on the company’s website: www.skyjack.com.
Operator
The operator must read and completely understand both this operating manual and the safety panel label located
on the platform and all other warnings in this manual and on the aerial platform. Compare the labels on the aerial
platform with the labels found within this manual. If any labels are damaged or missing, replace them immediately.

follow simple and fundamental safety rules and precautions.
You, as a careful operator, are the best insurance against an accident. Therefore, proper usage of this aerial platform
is mandatory. The following pages of this manual should be read and understood completely before operating the
aerial platform.

Section 1 - Scheduled Maintenance Operator’s Responsibility for Maintenance
Electrocution Hazard
This aerial platform is not electrically insulated. Maintain a Minimum Safe Approach Distance (MSAD) from energized
power lines and parts as listed below. The operator must allow for the platform to sway, rock or sag. This aerial
platform does not provide protection from contact with or proximity to an electrically charged conductor.
Per ANSI A92.6-2006 8.10(7)
“The operator shall perform only that work for which he or she is qualified, in compliance with all applicable
safety related work practices intended to prevent electric shock covered by the Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR) 1910.333. The operator’s level of competence shall be established only by persons qualified to do so. Op-
erators shall maintain the appropriate minimum approach distance (MAD) from energized power lines and parts
covered by CFR 1910.333 (c).”
Unqualified persons must maintain a minimum approach distance of 10 feet from any energized power line up to
50 kV. Energized power lines over 50 kV require a greater minimum approach distance to be maintained. Refer to
CFR 1910.333.
As per CSA B354.2-01
“The operator shall maintain the minimum safe approach distance (MSAD) from energized conductors at all times
in accordance with the authority having jurisdiction.”
DO NOT USE THE AERIAL PLATFORM AS A GROUND FOR WELDING.
DO NOT OPERATE THE AERIAL PLATFORM DURING LIGHTNING OR STORMS.
DO NOT OPERATE THE AERIAL PLATFORM NEAR POWER LINES. MAINTAIN A MINIMUM SAFE AP-
PROACH DISTANCE (MSAD) FROM ENERGIZED POWER LINES.
