Operation
3. Enter the platform and secure the gate.
4. From the upper controls, pull the emergency stop
button outward (refer to Figure 4).
5. The aerial platform may be driven and the platform
may be raised and lowered from the upper controls.
Platform
Use care when entering and exiting the platform to avoid
slipping and/or falling. Securely close the safety gate
when the platform is occupied.
Danger
The potential for an accident increases when the fold
down rails are lowered. Death or serious injury can
result in such accidents. Do not elevate the platform
with the fold down rails lowered. Use extreme care
when moving the aerial platform while the fold down
rails are lowered.
Be sure the fold down guardrails are up and the hardware
is securely tightened, anytime the machine is not being
transported.
Raising and Lowering
The raise speed is proportional to the joystick position.
The farther the joystick is moved, the faster the platform
raises. There is only one lowering speed.
1. Place the drive/lift selector switch (refer to Figure 4)
in the lift position.
2. Squeeze and hold the interlock switch against the
joystick.
To raise the platform, slowly push the joystick
forward until the desired height is reached.
To lower the platform, pull the joystick backward.
Lowering Interrupt
When the platform is lowered to about 1.5 m (5') lowering
stops. The platform will not lower for five seconds regard-
less of the joystick position.
Center the joystick in neutral to reset the lowering func-
tion, then continue to lower the platform.
Overload Protection
When the load in the platform is near or at rated capac-
ity, an alarm will sound and the red light on the upper
controls will flash.
The alarm and light warn the operator that the platform
is close to becoming overloaded. All functions remain
fully operational.

Danger
The aerial platform can tip over if it becomes unstable.
Death or serious injury will result from a tip-over ac-
cident. Do not exceed the capacity values indicated
on the platform rating placard.
If the platform is fully lowered and is overloaded, when
it is elevated just past 1.8 m (6'), a control module will
stop the lift and drive functions and the alarm will sound
and the warning light will flash. The platform can still be
lowered to remove the excess load.
If the platform is elevated just past 1.8 m (6') and material
is added to the platform overloading it, a control module
will stop the lift, drive and lower functions and the alarm
will sound and the warning light will flash. In this case,
remove the load in excess of rated capacity and cycle
the emergency stop button at the upper controls to return
to normal operation.
Extending
The platform can be extended and securely locked into
position.
Use the following procedure to extend the platform:
1. Enter the platform and close the gate.
Caution
The extension deck is free to move when the foot
lever is depressed. Personal injury may result from
accidentally extending or retracting the deck. Make
certain the pin is engaged when the deck is extended
in the working position and when it is stowed. Do not
attempt to extend or retract the platform unless the
aerial platform is on a level surface.
2. While facing the front of the platform, step down on
the foot lever and push the top rail of the extension
deck forward to extend the deck until the pin engages
the mid or front stop.
3. Try to move the rails back and forth to make sure the
platform extension deck is locked in position.
Use the following procedure to retract the platform:
1. Enter the platform and close the gate.
Caution
The extension deck is free to move when the foot
lever is depressed. Personal injury may result from
accidentally extending or retracting the deck. Make
certain the pin is engaged when the deck is extended
in the working position and when it is stowed. Do not
attempt to extend or retract the platform unless the
aerial platform is on a level surface.
2. While facing the front of the platform, step down on
the foot lever and pull the top rail of the extension deck
backward until the pin engages the mid or rear stop.
