Operating Instructions
Material Carrier Operation
1
Verify the material carrier assembly and
installation instructions have been followed
properly and that the material carriers are
secured to the platform railings.
2
Place the load so that it rests in both material
carriers. The length of the load should be
parallel with the platform.

5
Gently push and pull on the load to make sure
the material carriers and load are secure.
6
Keep the load secured when the machine is in
motion.
Tip-over hazard. The weight of
the material carrier assembly
and the load in the material
carrier will reduce the rated
platform capacity of the machine
and must be factored into the
total platform load.
Tip-over hazard. The weight of
the material carrier assembly
and the load in the material
carrier may limit the maximum
number of occupants in the
platform.
