FAQ about this model
What is the rated capacity, and does that include the workers?
The rated capacity is 1,000 lbs, and that figure covers everything on the deck at once — personnel, tools, and materials. The platform's own net weight of 350 lbs is separate from the load rating. Check the rated capacity of your carrier machine at the height you plan to work before putting the platform into service.
What size is the platform, and are other sizes available?
Model 1204C measures 4' x 4'. Star Industries also lists 6 ft, 8 ft, and 10 ft size options, so you can match the deck to the work area and to the reach of your machine. Measure aisle width, door openings, and storage space before choosing one of the longer decks.
What machines can this platform be mounted to?
It mounts to skid steers, loaders, telehandlers, and forklifts. The specifications name those four carrier types but do not identify particular makes or models, so confirm your machine's attachment interface and its rated capacity yourself. OSHA requires that a platform used to lift workers be secured to the lifting machine and used according to the manufacturer's instructions.
What safety features are included?
Guardrails, toe boards, and self-closing gates are included. The guardrails enclose the working area, the toe boards keep tools and loose material from sliding off the deck edge onto people below, and the gates close on their own so the entry point is not left open once a worker steps onto the platform.
Does the platform need power, hydraulics, or an electrical connection?
No. It has no motor, pump, or electrical connection of its own. The platform is a passive structure that is raised and lowered entirely by the carrier machine, using that machine's normal controls. There is nothing to plug in, charge, or connect to auxiliary hydraulics, which keeps setup limited to mounting and securing the platform.
What is it made of, and what maintenance does it need?
It is built from heavy duty steel. Upkeep is mainly inspection: before each use, look over the guardrails, toe boards, gate hardware, welds, and mounting points for bent, cracked, loose, or missing parts, and keep the deck clear of debris. Steel construction means most damage is visible on a walk-around rather than hidden inside the structure.
