On board the machine, respect the following instructions :
• During operation, keep all the parts of the body inside the platform.
• Adapt the movement speed according to the ground conditions (traffic, slope, etc.).
• Respect stopping distances :
• 3 m (9 ft 10 in) at fast speed.
• 1 m (3 ft 3 in) at slow speed.
• To position the machine close to obstacles, use the lifting controls (arm, boom, etc.) instead of the
drive controls.
• Make sure there are no obstacles (structure) in the work area.
• When moving, position the platform so as to have the best possible visibility.
• Always have someone to guide manoeuvres in case of low visibility.
• All personnel on the machine or on the ground must wear a safety helmet.
• When raising or lowering the machine, and during drive, the operator must check that the area above,
below and on each side of the machine, is clear.
• When moving the machine, ensure that there are no people or obstacles in the way.
Do not operate other machines (crane, platform, etc.) in the work area.
Take into account the distance, reduced visibility and dead angles during the driving and/or use of the
machine.
