WARNING

Failure to comply with your required responsibilities in the use and operation of the aerial platform

could result in death or serious injury!

Operator Safety Reminders

A study conducted by St. Paul Travelers showed that most accidents are caused by the failure of the operator to

follow simple and fundamental safety rules and precautions.

You, as a careful operator, are the best insurance against an accident. Therefore, proper usage of this aerial

platform is mandatory. The following pages of this manual should be read and understood completely before

operating the aerial platform.

Common sense dictates the use of protective clothing when working on or near machinery. Use appropriate safety

devices to protect your eyes, ears, hands, feet and body.

Any modifications from the original design are strictly forbidden without written permission from SKYJACK.
