EQUIPMENT USE AND SAFETY
Safe Setup And Use Of The 542KB UniLift
Please review the following setup and use instructions before operating the 542KB UniLift.
1.
Make sure the 542KB UniLift has been safely set up away from power lines (maintain at least 10 feet
of clearance).
2.
Disconnect the 542KB UniLift from the transporting vehicle before setup. If the unit is parked on a
slope, chock the wheels or set the outriggers first, to prevent rolling.
3.
Extend and set up the outriggers (setup instructions are located at each outrigger). Make sure the
outriggers are set on solid footing. The green light on the lower control panel indicates that the
outriggers are properly set. NOTE: If the green indicator light is lit before all four outriggers are set,
the unit is not safe to operate.
4.
If the 542KB UniLift is set on a slope (5° maximum), the outriggers MUST be used for leveling.
5.
Make sure all electrical power cords are safely stored to prevent tangling or crushing.

Always wear the proper body harness, and keep the harness secured to the lanyard ring whenever
operating the 542KB UniLift from the bucket.
7.
DO NOT exceed the manufacturer's rated lifting capacities.
8.
The lower controls are for emergency use only, when a worker is present in the bucket.
9.
It is PROHIBITED and DANGEROUS to use railings, planks, ladders, or other devices in the bucket
to achieve additional working height or reach.
10. Watch for overhead obstructions when booming up.
11. Keep observers and other workers out of the work area.
12. DO NOT lift materials with the lanyard ring while operating the 542KB UniLift from the bucket.
