connected and the welder is properly grounded.
The weight of the welder will reduce the rated

total platform load. The welder power supply
weighs 34 kg.
Do not operate the welder unless a fire
extinguisher is immediately available for instant
use, per OSHA regulation 1926.352(d).

load in the pipe cradles may limit the maximum
number of occupants in platform.

platform.
Secure the load to the platform.
Do not obstruct the entrance or the exit of the
platform.
Do not obstruct the ability to operate the platform
controls or the red Emergency Stop button.

instructed and are aware of all of the hazards
associated with movement of the platform with an
overhanging load.

machine by raising or lowering a fixed or
overhanging load.
