WARNING

Never stand on the guardrails to reach the work site. Remember: Keep both feet firmly on the platform at

all times! Failure to do so may result in severe personal injury.

WARNING

Do not use the guardrails to support and carry material and loads. Do not permit any materials to

overhang the platform. Materials supported on the guardrailing and/or overhanging the platform pose a

serious threat to personnel.

WARNING

Never lean out over the guardrails! If the work cannot be safely reached, re-position the SPEMS for safe

access. Failure to do so may result in severe personal injury.

WARNING

Supporting surfaces must be sufficiently firm to hold both the SPEMS and its full rated load safely! Never

attempt to raise the platform until the base of the SPEMS is level. Do not raise the platform when the

base is mounted on a irregular or sloping surface! Failure to do so may result in severe personal injury.

WARNING

Stabilizers provide supplemental support only. They are not intended to level the base. The SPEMS is

equipped with stabilizers which must be extended before raising the platform, but first be certain base is

level! Failure to do so may result in severe personal injury.

WARNING

Platform Positioning-Scissors Members: When raising or lowering the platform, be certain that all

personnel are well clear of the scissors mechanism. Stay clear of scissors and base when unit is in

service especially when the platform is being raised or lowered. Failure to do so may result in severe

personal injury.
