Operators must be properly trained and
qualified to operate this specific telehandler.
Know the location, learn the specific purpose,
and demonstrate safe and proper use of all
controls, instruments, indicator lights, and
safety and instruction labels. Safety is your responsibility.
Failure to follow these guidelines could result in death or
serious injury.
To prevent death or serious injury, the

fastened, the travel select lever set to
NEUTRAL, the Parking Brake switch ON
(engaged), the service brake applied, and the
area free of people and obstructions BEFORE starting the
telehandler.
Operation Safety
Death or serious injury by electrocution will
result from contact with or inadequate clear-
ance with energized power lines or apparatus.
•
Never operate the telehandler in an area
where active overhead power lines,
overhead or underground cables, or other power
sources exist.
•
Contact the appropriate power or utility company
to de-energize power lines or take other suitable
precautions.
Keep the telehandler, attachments, and loads
a safe distance from electrical power lines.
•
Remain at least 10 feet, plus an additional
0.4 inches for each 1,000 volts over 50,000
volts, from active power lines and other
power sources.
•
Work site operating directives and/or local or state
codes might require a greater distance.
•
Know the maximum height and reach of this telehan-
dler.
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.

telehandler. Failure to wear the seat belt could result
in death or serious injury.
DO NOT adjust the seat or seat belt while the
telehandler is moving. Keep both hands on
the wheel while the telehandler is moving
to prevent loss of telehandler control which
could result in death or serious injury.
Never try to escape the telehandler if it be-
comes unstable. Learn and practice these
safety procedures to protect yourself from a
roll over or tip over incident:
•
Remain securely fastened in the seat belt.

Keep your head, body, and limbs within the ROPS/FOPS
structure.
•
Brace yourself and hold on firmly.
•
Lean away from the point of impact.
•
Stay on the telehandler and ride out the roll over or tip
over.
It is unlawful to tamper with or remove any component of
the aftertreatment system. It is also unlawful to use Diesel
Exhaust Fluid (DEF) that does not meet the specifications
provided or to operate the machine with no DEF.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid contains urea. DO NOT get the sub-

utes. DO NOT swallow internally. In the event the DEF is in-
gested, contact a physician immediately. Refer to the Mate-
