Before positioning and operating the machine :
• Ensure that the surface is capable of supporting the machine weight including the rated
capacity.
• Do not exceed the maximum rated capacity that includes the
weight of both material and allowed number of occupants. Do not
exceed the allowable number of occupants.

etc.).
• Do not place ladders or scaffolds in the platform or against any
part of this machine.
