midrail.
USE OF THE AERIAL WORK PLATFORM: This aerial work platform is intended to lift persons and his tools as well as the
material used for the job. It is designed for repair and assembly jobs and assignments at overhead workplaces (ceilings,
cranes, roof structures, buildings etc.). Uses or alterations to the aerial work platform must be approved by UpRight.
THIS AERIAL WORK PLATFORM IS NOT INSULATED! For this reason it is imperative to keep a safe distance from live
parts of electrical equipment!
Exceeding the specified permissible maximum load is prohibited! See “Platform Capacity” on page 5 for details.
The use and operation of the aerial work platform as a lifting tool or a crane is prohibited!
NEVER exceed the manual force allowed for this machine. See “Manual Force” on page 5 for details.
DISTRIBUTE all platform loads evenly on the platform.
NEVER operate the machine without first surveying the work area for surface hazards such as holes, drop-offs, bumps, curbs,
or debris; and avoiding them.
OPERATE machine only on surfaces capable of supporting wheel loads.
NEVER operate the machine when wind speeds exceed this machine’s wind rating. See “Beaufort Scale” on page 5 for details.
Do not operate the aerial platform in windy or gusty conditions. Do not add anything to the aerial platform that will increase the
wind loading such as billboards, banners, flags, etc.
IN CASE OF EMERGENCY push EMERGENCY STOP switch to deactivate all powered functions.
IF ALARM SOUNDS while platform is elevated, STOP, carefully lower platform. Move machine to a firm, level surface.
Climbing up the railing of the platform, standing on or stepping from the platform onto buildings, steel or prefab concrete
structures, etc., is prohibited!
Dismantling the entry gate or other railing components is prohibited! Always make certain that the entry gate is closed!
It is prohibited to keep the entry gate in an open position when the platform is raised!
To extend the height or the range by placing of ladders, scaffolds or similar devices on the platform is prohibited!
NEVER perform service on machine while platform is elevated without blocking elevating assembly.
INSPECT the machine thoroughly for cracked welds, loose or missing hardware, hydraulic leaks, loose wire connections, and
damaged cables or hoses before using.
VERIFY that all labels are in place and legible before using.
NEVER use a machine that is damaged, not functioning properly, or has damaged or missing labels.
To bypass any safety equipment is prohibited and presents a danger for the persons on the aerial work platform and in its
working range.
NEVER charge batteries near sparks or open flame. Charging batteries emit explosive hydrogen gas.
Modifications to the aerial work platform are prohibited or permissible only at the approval by UpRight.
AFTER USE, secure the work platform from unauthorized use by turning the keyswitch off and removing key.
The driving of MEWP’s on the public highway is subject to national traffic regulations.

Harness attachment points are provided in the platform and the manufacturer recommends the usage of a fall restraint
harness, especially where required by national safety regulations.
Care must be taken to ensure that the machines meets the requirements of stability during use, transportation, assembly,
dismantling when out of service, testing, or foreseeable breakdowns.
In the event of an accident or breakdown see “Emergency Lowering” on page 12, do not operate the aerial platform if it is
damaged or not functioning properly. Qualified maintenance personnel must correct the problem before putting the aerial
platform back into service.
