Chapter 4 – Safety Devices
This aerial work platform is manufactured with safety
devices, placards, and decals to reduce the likelihood
of an accident.
y
For the safety of all personnel, do not disable, modify,
or ignore any safety device.
y
Safety devices are included in the daily prestart
inspection.
Warning
The potential for an accident increases when safety
devices do not function properly. Death or serious
injury could result from such accidents. Do not alter,
disable, or override any safety device.
If any safety devices are defective, remove the aerial
platform from service until qualified maintenance person-
nel can make repairs.
Emergency Stop Controls
There is an emergency stop control at the lower and
upper controls. Both the lower and upper control emer-
gency stop buttons must be on to operate the machine
from the upper control.
At the lower controls, the emergency stop is a two-posi-
tion red push button (refer to Figure 4.1).
Figure 4.1 – Lower Controls
y
Push the emergency stop button inward to disconnect
power to all control circuits.
y
Pull the button outward to restore power.
Note
The lower controls override the upper controls. If the up-
per control emergency stop button is engaged, the lower
controls can still be used to operate the aerial platform.
At the upper controls, the emergency stop is a two-posi-
tion red push button (refer to Figure 4.2).

y
Push the emergency stop button inward to disconnect
power to the upper control circuits.
y
Pull the button outward to restore power.
Drive Motion Alarm
When the joystick is moved out of neutral to drive the
aerial platform, the alarm emits a loud beeping sound to
warn personnel in the work area to stand clear.
Pothole Protector Skids
The pothole protector skids are perminately fixed to the
base of the chassis and have a ground clearance of ap-
proximately 3/4″ (2 cm), refer to Figure 4.3.

Danger
The aerial platform can tip over if it becomes unsta-
ble. Death or serious injury will result from a tip-over
accident. Do not drive or position the aerial platform
for elevated use within 4′ (1.2 m) of any drop-off, hole,
or other tip-over hazard.
This protection system limits the tilt angle if a wheel is
driven into a drop-off or hole. This greatly reduces the
likelihood of the aerial platform tipping over. The pothole
protection system is for added protection and does not
justify operating near drop-offs or holes.
