Do not operate the lifting arms until you have been fully trained, and have read and
understood both the Operator's Manual and the Maintenance Manual supplied with this
unit.

Make sure that all people and obstructions are sufficiently cleared from the lifting arms
before moving them. Failure to do so may result in unit and/or property damage,
personal injury or death.

lines. The lifting arms or the container must not come in direct contact with the electrical

so will result in unit and /or property damage, severe injury or even death.
