1.8 Safety of Work Area

1) The platform can only be raised on a solid and flat level ground.

2) The speed shall not exceed 0.5km/h /0.31mph when the platform is raised.

3) The inclination alarm cannot be regarded as level indicator. When the machine is seriously inclined, the inclination alarm of the chassis and platform will ring.

4) If inclination alarm rings, lower the platform and move the machine to a solid level ground. If the inclination alarm rings when the platform is raised, the platform shall be lowered very carefully.

5） In case the machine is used outdoor, do not lift the platform when the wind speed is above 12.5m/s /28mph if the wind speed exceeds the limit after lifting the platform, please immediately lower the platform and stop the machine operation.

6） Do not operate the machine in strong winds or gusts. The surface area of the platform or load cannot be increased. Increase of the area exposed to the wind will reduce the stability of the machine.


7）In the raising state of the platform, the machine cannot run on uneven terrain and unstable surface, or in other dangerous situations, or near these areas.

8） In the stow state, the machine must run very carefully and reduce its speed when it runs on uneven terrain, unstable or smooth surface with stones, or the place near the tunnel, or the steep slope.

9） Do not use the platform control unit (PCU) to release the platform when the platform is tripped, stuck, or its normal operation is obstructed by other nearby matters. Before using the ground control unit (GCU) to release the platform, all staff must leave the platform.

10）Don't push or pull anything outside the platform.

11) Don't use the machine as a crane.

12) Don't place, fasten and fix or suspend loads on any component of the machine.

13) Don't place ladders or scaffolds within the platform or against any component of the machine.

14) Don't attach platforms to adjacent buildings.

15) Don't change or disable limit switch.

16) Don't tie platforms to adjacent components.

17) Don't place loads outside the platform guardrail.

18) Don't change or damage any component that may affect the safety and stability of the machine.

19) Don't replace key parts that affect machine stability with parts of different weights or specifications.

20) Don't amend or modify the mobile elevated work platform. Install additional equipment for placing tools or other materials on platforms, pedals or guardrails, which will increase platform weight and surface area or load.

21) Don't push machines or other objects on the platform.

22) Only transport tools and materials that are evenly distributed and can be safely moved by people on the platform.

23) Don't use machines on moving surfaces and vehicles.
