drop-offs, bumps and debris.
NEVER operate the machine if all guardrails are not properly in place and secured with all fasteners prop-
erly torqued.
SECURE chain or gate across entrance after mounting platform.
NEVER use ladders or scaffolding on the platform.
NEVER attach overhanging loads or increase platform size.
LOOK up, down and around for overhead obstructions and electrical conductors.
