Operator's ManualFourth Edition Fourth PrintingSAFETY RULESDo not alter or disable machine components that inany way affect safety and stability.Do not modify or alter an aerial work platformwithout prior written permission from themanufacturer. Mounting attachments for holdingtools or other materials onto the platform, toeboardsor guard rail system can increase the weight in theplatform and the surface area of the platform or theload.Outdoor Use: Do not raise the platform when windspeeds may exceed 28 mph / 12.5 m/s. If windspeeds exceed 28 mph / 12.5 m/s when theplatform is raised, lower the platform and do notcontinue to operate the machine.Indoor Use: When raising the platform, followratings for allowable side force and number ofoccupants on page 3.Do not operate the machine in strong or gustywinds. Do not increase the surface area of theplatform or the load. Increasing the area exposed tothe wind will decrease machine stability.Do not transport tools and materials unless they areevenly distributed and can be safely handled byperson(s) in the platform.Do not place ladders or scaffolds in the platform oragainst any part of this machine.Do not use the machine on a moving or mobilesurface or vehicle.Be sure all tires are in good condition, castle nutsare properly tightened and cotter pins are properlyinstalled.Do not use batteries that weigh less than theoriginal equipment. Batteries are used ascounterweight and are critical to machine stability.Each battery must weigh 65 pounds / 30 kg.Do not use the machine as a crane.Do not push the machine or other objects with theplatform.Do not contact adjacent structures with theplatform.Do not drive the machine on or near uneven terrain,unstable surfaces or other hazardous conditionswith the platform raised.Do not tie the platform to adjacent structures.Do not replace items critical to machine stabilitywith items of different weight or specification.Do not operate the machine with the chassis traysopen.Do not place loads outside the platform perimeter.Do not place or attach fixed or overhanging loads toany part of this machine.4GS-2032 GS-2632Part No. 1000033
