OPERATION AND SAFETY
QRGOVSALES

The telehandler is not electrically insulated. Death or serious injury will result from contact
with, or inadequate clearance from, an energized conductor.
Do not go closer than the minimum safe approach distance as defined by the Minimum Safe
Approach Distance sections in Chapter 3–Safety.
Regard all conductors as energized.
Allow for electrical wire sag and telehander sway.
If the carriage, booms, or any part of the telehandler contacts a high-voltage electrical conductor, the
entire machine can become electrically charged.
If that happens, remain on the machine and do not contact any other structure or object. This includes
the ground, adjacent buildings, poles, and any other objects that are not part of the aerial platform.
Such contact could make your body a conductor to the other object, creating an electrical shock hazard
resulting in death or serious injury.
If a telehandler is in contact with an energized conductor the operator must warn ground personnel
in the vicinity to stay away. Their bodies can conduct electricity creating an electrical shock hazard
resulting in death or serious injury.
Do not approach or leave the telehandler until the electricity has been turned off.
Do not attempt to operate the controls when the carriage, booms, or any part of the telehandler is in
contact with a high-voltage electrical conductor or if there is an immediate danger of such contact.
Personnel on or near the telehandler must be continuously aware of electrical hazards, recognizing
that death or serious injury can result from contact with an energized conductor.

A safety alert symbol is used throughout this manual to
indicate danger, warning, and caution instructions. Follow
these instructions to reduce the likelihood of personal
injury and property damage. The terms danger, warning,
and caution indicate varying degrees of personal injury
or property damage that can result if the instruction is
not followed.

Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which,
if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
This signal word is to be used in the most extreme
situations.
Warning
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if
not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
Caution
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if
not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury.
It may also be used to alert against unsafe practices.
Notes
Notes are used to provide special information or helpful
hints to assist in aerial platform operation, but do not
indicate a hazardous situation.
Operation
The telehandler has built-in safety features and has been
factory tested for compliance with Snorkel specifications
and industry standards. However, any telehandler can
be potentially dangerous in the hands of untrained or
careless operators.
Warning
The potential for an accident increases when the
telehandler is operated by personnel who are not
trained and authorized. Death or serious injury could
result from such accidents. Read and understand the
information in this manual and on the placards and
decals on the machine before operating the aerial
platform on the job.
Training is essential and must be performed by a qualified
person.
• Become proficient in knowledge and actual operation
before using the aerial platform on the job.
• The operator must be trained and authorized to per-
form any functions of the aerial platform.
• Operation of the aerial platform must be within the
scope of the machine specifications.
The operator bears ultimate responsibility for following
all manufacturer’s instructions and warnings, regulations
and safety rules of their employer and/or any state or
federal law.
Maintenance
Complete machine inspection consists of periodic visual
and operational checks, along with periodic minor adjust-
ments that assure proper performance. Daily inspection
will prevent abnormal wear and prolong the life of all
systems. The inspection and maintenance schedule
should be performed at the specified intervals and after
prolonged periods of storage before returning the ma-
chine to service. Inspection and maintenance shall be
performed by personnel who are trained and familiar with
mechanical and electrical procedures.
Every person who maintains, inspects, tests, or repairs
the aerial platform must be qualified to do so. Following
the daily prestart inspection in this Operator’s Manual will
help keep the aerial platform in optimum working condi-
tion. Other maintenance functions must be performed
by maintenance personnel who are qualified to work on
the aerial platform.
Caution
Welding current can be very intense. Damage to elec-
tronic components may result. Connect the ground
clamp as close as possible to the area being welded.
Disconnect battery cables and any microprocessors
and engine control modules before welding on the
machine.
If it becomes necessary to weld aerial platform com-
ponents as a method of repair, take all precautions to
prevent damage to electronic circuitry and devices on
the machine. This includes, but may not be limited to,
disconnecting battery cables and electronic devices.
Do not modify this aerial platform without prior written
consent of the Snorkel Engineering Department. Modifi-
cation may void the warranty, adversely affect stability, or
affect the operational characteristics of the aerial platform.
