PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing a fork-mountable work platform (“platform” or “work platform”) made by Vestil Manufacturing
Corporation (“Vestil”). Our platforms are durable, high-quality products that combine safety-conscious design features
and rigorous engineering. Although use and maintenance procedures are relatively intuitive, all persons who might use or
maintain this product must familiarize themselves with the instructions provided in this manual.
Standard design features include: fork pockets that receive the tines (forks) of a fork lift; mast guard; guard rails with
either 1 or 2 gates; and either a safety chain or safety strap to secure the work platform to the fork carriage to prevent the
work platform from sliding off of the forks if the lift operator accidentally tilts the mast forward during use. Dimensions and
other product specifications of offered models appear in the following tables:
