Platform Capacity

The platform rated load capacity is the total weight of
the personnel and equipment that may be lifted in the
platform. The work load is stated on the platform rating
placard mounted on the toeboard at the rear of the plat-
form. Do not exceed the rated load capacity.
The maximum total load carried by the glazier trays must
not exceed 250 lb (113 kg). The weight of the load in
the trays reduces the platform capacity by the amount
of the load.
Danger
The aerial platform can tip over if it becomes unstable.
Death or serious injury will result from a tip-over ac-
cident. The glazier package may increase wind loads
on the machine. Do not load the glazier trays anytime
the wind speed is greater than 28 mph (12.5 m/s).
Do not operate the machine with a load on the glazier
trays unless you have been fully trained and understand
the hazards associated with lifting panels attached to
the platform.

Platform Welder

The platform welder package allows the platform operator
to perform continuous duty stick and TIG welding from the
platform. Refer to the Platform Welder Package manual
(Snorkel Part Number 0083991) for information on proper
operation of the welder package.

Platform Capacity
The platform rated load capacity is the total weight of the
personnel and equipment that may be lifted in the plat-
form. The work load is stated on the platform rating plac-
ard mounted on the toeboard at the rear of the platform.
The welder and its associated accessories are considered
as equipment and reduces the platform capacity by 110 lb
(50 kg).

2. Park the machine on a firm level surface, preferably
under cover, secure against vandals, children and
unauthorized operation.
