Conditions for use

2.7.1 Risk of electric shock
The wrecker is not insulated and offers no protection against electric currents.
Never operate the wrecker in places where power lines, underground cables or other
l
energy sources may exist unless the power company has turned off the power. If working
in the dark, use adequate lighting to look for power lines.
Always check for power lines before using the boom and ensure that it does not come into
l
contact with power lines.
Keep a safe distance away from the power lines.
l
Do not touch or get out of an energized vehicle.
l
Avoid raising the boom during a thunderstorm, since it could attract lightning.
l
Maintain at least 3 m (10') of clearance between all wrecker parts and power lines or
l
devices with more than 50,000 volts. See the minimum approach distances in the table
and add an additional 30 cm (1') for every 30,000 volts or portion thereof.
