Default scissor lift working on carpet surface

We need to rent a scissor lift to hang up some lights in a industrial
warehouse. But the floor in the warehouse is commercial carpet glued
down on slab. What is a good way to protect the carpet while moving
the lift around the warehouse?

Thanks

Would the sheets of plywood shift under the wheels of the lift as we
turn the wheels around? Or would it be sturdy enough so that it will
not shift?

Thanks

Doubt they will shift, but they will be a pita to move around in front of
the lift every time you move it. I doubt it will do any damage to the
carpet if you use nothing. Weight is evenly distributed as you roll. Just
don't turn the wheels when you are not moving.
