Tipping Hazards

• Ensure that the ground conditions are adequate to support
the maximum tire load indicated on the tire load decals
located on the chassis adjacent to each wheel. Do not travel
on unsupported surfaces.
• The user should be familiar with the driving surface before
driving. Do not exceed the allowable sideslope and grade
while driving.

• Do not elevate platform or drive with platform elevated
while on or near a sloping, uneven, or soft surface. Ensure
machine is positioned on a firm, level and smooth surface
before elevating platform or driving with the platform in
the elevated position.
• Before driving on floors, bridges, trucks, and other surfaces,
check allowable capacity of the surfaces.
• Never exceed the maximum work load as specified on the
platform. Keep all loads within the confines of the platform,
unless authorized by JLG.
• Keep the chassis of the machine a minimum of 0.6 m (2 ft)
from holes, bumps, drop-offs, obstructions, debris, con-
cealed holes, and other potential hazards at the ground
level.
• Never attempt to use the machine as a crane. Do not tie-off
machine to any adjacent structure. Never attach wire, cable,
or any similar items to platform.
• Do not cover the platform sides or carry large surface-area
items in the platform when operating outdoors. The addi-
tion of such items increases the exposed wind area of the
machine.
• Do not increase the platform size with unauthorized deck
extensions or attachments.
