Operation work platform from pinch points or moving parts while in their normal working position on the platform. 23. Provide overhead protection device as required by work site conditions or if requested by the user of the platform. Load Capacity Charts Warning DO NOT exceed rated capacity.
Operation Frame Leveling Warning Use of the frame sway control with the boom raised above horizontal could cause tip over resulting in death or injury. Always use the frame sway control to level the telehandler BEFORE raising the boom above horizontal. If the telehandler cannot be leveled using the frame sway control, do not attempt to raise or place load.
Operation The frame sway feature becomes locked and will not operate when the boom is raised 40° or more. Applying service brake, parking brake, and placing travel select lever in NEUTRAL, then pressing the Frame Sway Override switch (the yellow button on the front of the control joystick) will override the lockout feature and allow frame sway.
