Special Limitations
Travel with the platform raised is limited to creep speed
range. Elevating the platform is limited to firm, level
surfaces only.
Danger
The elevating function shall ONLY be used when the
work platform is level and on a firm surface.
The work platform is NOT intended to be driven over
uneven, rough, or soft terrain.
Platform Capacity
Two people and tools may occupy the platform. The max-
imum platform capacity for the aerial platform is stated in
the "Specifications" on page 24.
Danger
DO NOT exceed the maximum platform capacity or
the platform occupancy limits for this machine.
Manual Force
Manual force is the force applied by the occupants to
objects such as walls or other structures outside the
work platform.
The maximum allowable manual force is limited to 200 N
(45 lbs) of force per occupant, with a maximum of 400 N
(90 lbs) for two occupants.
Danger
DO NOT exceed the maximum amount of manual
force for this machine.
Platform Overload Sensing System
All functions are stopped from the upper and lower con-
trols, when the platform overload limit is exceeded. The
horn will sound intermittently and the platform overload
light will blink until the excess load is removed from the
platform. At that time, the machine functions are again
operational.
If the platform becomes significantly overloaded, or if
an upward force on the platform exceeds approximately
2225 N (500 lb), the system will enter into error mode,
stopping all functions from the upper and lower controls.
The horn will then sound constantly and the overload
light will stay illuminated at the upper and lower controls.

Figure 1 – Beaufort Scale
The system will remain in error mode until the excess load
is removed from the platform and the emergency stop but-
ton or start switch is cycled off and back on, resetting the
system. At that time, the machine functions are operational.
The emergency power system is for emergency
lowering and stowing only. The length of time the
pump can be operated depends on the capacity of the
battery. Do not use this system for normal operation.
If the platform overload sensing system is tripped while
operating the machine or if the system is in error mode
and can not be reset, the emergency power system may
still be used for emergency machine operation from either
the lower or upper controls.
The aerial platform can tip over if it becomes unsta-
ble. Death or serious injury will result from a tip-over
accident. Do not exceed the capacity values indicated
on the platform rating placard.
The overload sensing system is not active when the ma-
chine is being driven with the booms in the stowed position.
This allows the machine to be driven without the system
sensing an overload due to rough ground conditions.
To eliminate repeated tripping of the system during ma-
chine operation, there is a five second delay in machine
functions following:
• starting the engine.
• removing excess load from the platform.
Beaufort Scale
Never operate the machine when wind speeds exceed
12.5 m/s (28mph) [Beaufort scale 6]. Refer to Figure 1.
Engine Protection Systems
A constant tone alarm will sound to warn against high
engine temperature or low oil pressure.
The engine will shut-down:
• if the operating temperature exceeds a preset level
• or, if the oil pressure is too low for safe operation.
mph
Papers and thin branches move, flags wave.
Dust is raised, paper whirls up, and small branches sway.
Shrubs with leaves start swaying. Wave crests are apparent in ponds
or swamps.
Tree branches move. Power lines whistle. It is difficult to open an
umbrella.
Whole trees sway. It is difficult to walk against the wind.
