Trip and Fall Hazards
Keep both feet firmly positioned on the platform floor at all times. Never position
ladders, boxes, steps, planks, or similar items on unit to provide additional
reach or height.
Never use the boom assembly to gain access to or leave the platform.
Use extreme caution when entering or leaving platform. Ensure that the platform
is fully lowered. Always maintain “three point contact” with the platform,
using two hands and one foot or two feet and one hand at all times during
entry and exit.
Platform-to-structure transfers at elevated positions are discouraged. Where
transfer is necessary, enter/exit through the gate only with the platform within
1 foot (0.3m) of a safe and secure structure. 100% tie-off is also required in
this situation utilizing two lanyards. One lanyard must be attached to the
platform with the second lanyard attached to the structure. The lanyard
connected to the platform must not be disconnected until such time that the
transfer to the structure is safe and complete.
Electrocution Hazards
Maintain safe clearance from electrical lines, apparatus, or any energized
(exposed or insulated) parts in accordance with the Minimum Safe Approach
Distance (MSAD) as specified below:
0 to 50KV

Over 50KV to 200KV
15 (5)
Over 200KV to 350KV
20 (6)
Over 350KV to 500KV
25 (8)
Over 500KV to 750KV

Maintain a clearance of at least 10 ft. (3m) between any part of the machine
and its occupants, their tools, and their equipment from any electrical line or
apparatus carrying up to 50,000 volts. One foot additional clearance is required
for every additional 30,000 volts or less.
Tipping Hazards
Do not operate platform while on a sloping, uneven, or soft surface. Level the
personnel work platform both side to side and front to back before lifting
personnel.
Never exceed the maximum work load as specified on the capacity decal and
capacity indicator located on the control console. Distribute load evenly on
platform floor. Keep all loads within the confines of the platform unless written
authorization is received from Gradall.
Crushing Hazards
Keep hands and limbs away from boom assembly during operation.
Check clearances above, on sides and bottom of platform when moving platform.
During operation, keep all body parts inside platform railing. Avoid operating
over ground personnel. Warn personnel not to work, stand, or walk under a
raised boom or platform. Position barricades as necessary.
