Only qualified personnel can operate scissor lifts.
Operators must wear safety harnesses.
Use outriggers to level the lift and securely pad the support feet.
Follow the operating manual's instructions.
If the platform jumps or jams, stop immediately and inspect.
Stop and inspect immediately if the hydraulic system makes abnormal noises, oil temperature rises rapidly, pressures are abnormal, there's oil leakage, or the platform doesn't move as commanded.
If the platform doesn't move, check the hydraulic system and lifting mechanism, and ensure no overloading or electrical issues.
Maintain safety clearance above the platform.
Ensure all controls are neutral if power is interrupted.
Do not operate the lift while personnel are working at heights.
Keep personnel within the platform boundaries.
Cut off power when leaving the lift.
