Use only a compliant work platform meeting the ASME B56.6 standards

platform for even the shortest distance.
Death or serious personal injury can occur if these rules are not
obeyed. Riders can fall and be crushed or run over. Avoid accidents.
For other specific precautions, see “Elevating Personnel” on page 90.
7. Tip Over Hazard
Traveling with the boom raised is dangerous and can cause tipover.
Keep the boom as low as possible. Travel with extreme caution and at
the slowest possible speed.
Keep the vehicle under control at all times. When negotiating turns,
slow down and turn the steering wheel in a smooth sweeping motion.
Avoid jerky turns, starts or stops. Reduce vehicle speed on rough
