ELECTRICAL HAZARD
The TB 60 is an all metal boom, NOT ELECTRICALLY INSULATED, aerial work platform. Do
not operate it near ELECTRICAL conductors. Regard all conductors as being energized. Use
the table and figure below to determine safe clearance from electrical conductors. Table 1 and
Figure 3 are reprinted courtesy of Scaffold Industry Association, ANSI/SIA A92.5, page 23.

Danger: - Do not allow machine personnel or conductive
materials inside prohibited zone.
- Maintain M.S.A.D. from all energized lines and parts
as well as those shown.
- Assume all electrical parts and wires are energized
unless known otherwise.
Caution: - Diagrams shown are only for purposes of illustrating
M.S.A.D. work positions, not all work positions.
