Do not raise the platform
unless the machine is on a
firm, level surface.
Do not depend on the tilt alarm as a level indicator.
The tilt alarm sounds on the chassis only when the
machine is on a severe slope.
If the tilt alarm sounds:
Lower the platform. Move the machine to a firm,
level surface. If the tilt alarm sounds when the
platform is raised, use extreme caution to lower the
platform.
Do not alter or disable the limit switches or angle
sensor.
Do not drive over 0.3 mph / 0.48 km/h with the
platform raised.
Do not raise the platform when wind speeds may
exceed 28 mph / 12.5 m/s. If wind speeds exceed
28 mph / 12.5 m/s when the platform is raised,
lower the platform and do not continue to operate
the machine.
Do not operate the
machine in strong or gusty
winds. Do not increase the
surface area of the
platform or the load.
Increasing the area
exposed to the wind will
decrease machine
stability.
Use extreme care and slow
speeds while driving the
machine in the stowed
position across uneven
terrain, debris, unstable or
slippery surfaces and near
holes and drop-offs.
Do not use the platform controls to free a platform
that is caught, snagged, or otherwise prevented
from normal motion by an adjacent structure. All
personnel must be removed from the platform
before attempting to free the platform using the
ground controls.

Note: Slope rating is subject to ground conditions
with one person in the platform and adequate
traction. Additional platform weight may reduce
slope rating. See Driving on a Slope in the
Operating Instructions section.
Fall Hazards
The guard rail system provides fall protection. If
occupant(s) of the platform are required to wear
personal fall protection equipment (PFPE) due to
job site or employer rules, PFPE and its use shall
be in accordance with the PFPE manufacturer’s
instructions and applicable governmental
requirements. Use approved lanyard attachment
