The aerial platform is not electrically insulated. Death or serious injury will result from contact with, or inadequate clearance from, an energized conductor. Do not go closer than the minimum safe approach distance as defined by the Minimum Safe Approach Distance sections in Chapter 3–Safety. Regard all conductors as energized. - Page 3 Do NOT Leave the MEWP Do NOT Operate an MEWP Do NOT Strike or Bump Stationary Do NOT Strike or Bump Stationary With The Key In It While Physically Impaired Objects With an Elevated MEWP Objects With a Stowed MEWP 460SJ – 1433685...
- Page 4 WARNING SAFETY NOTICE PLEASE READ BEFORE USE If this machine has been transported in a container the wheels will have been flipped to get it into the container. This will make the machine narrower than the design intent. The machine may be driven with the wheels flipped to load & unload but only ever when in the stowed position.
