Death or serious injury can result if an SR
tips over. Do not use the outriggers to gain
extra working height, they are not designed
for that purpose. At least one of the
outriggers should raise the SR less than six
inches (15 cm) above the ground -- use the
other three outriggers to level the SR as
necessary.

5. Visually check the bubble level (5) to
determine which outriggers must be further
extended to level the platform (3).
NOTE: When the bubble (6) in the bubble
level is in the center of the ring (7), the
platform is level.

If the platform is up and the ground
compresses unevenly under different
outrigger pads the SR might fall over causing
serious injury or death. Check the bubble
level (5) frequently during operation. If any
movement of the bubble (6) occurs,
completely lower the platform immediately
and readjust the outriggers to recenter the
bubble (6) in the ring (7).
6. Lower the appropriate outriggers just enough
to center the bubble (5). When the LIFT
INDICATOR LIGHT (8) comes on, the platform
can be safely raised.
To raise the outriggers:
1. Completely lower the platform.
2. Push and hold the OUTRIGGER switches (9)
forward until all the outriggers are completely up.
NOTE: The DRIVE function will not work
unless the outriggers are completely up.
