1. DO NOT operate this machine unless you have been fully trained in its safe
use.
2. DO
NOT operate the machine on soft, slippery or sloping ground unless
adequate precautions have been taken.
The stabilisers are designed to operate on firm level ground with a minimum
bearing strength of 50N/cm 2 .
The maximum load imposed by an outrigger is 10.3kN.
Advice should be obtained from UpRight as to the type of supports and
precautions required before attempting to operate the machine outside
these parameters.
3. DO
NOT use any equipment in the basket to increase the reach or working
height of the machine, e.g. ladders.
4. DO
NOT fit any additional equipment to the machine that would increase
the wind loading, e.g. notice boards.
5. DO
NOT use the machine for any application that may produce special loads
or forces: the manufacturer, UpRight, must be consulted for approval of
special applications prior to use.
6.
DO NOT use the
machine close to
live electrical
conductors. The
minimum safe
working distance
for a machine
working near
overhead power
cables is the
maximum
extended length of
the booms plus 15
metres, measured
with the booms
pointing towards
the lines, i.e. safe
working distance for the TL37 is 20 metres. It is the operator‘s responsibility
to ensure that, when working in the vicinity of live overhead high-voltage
lines, the minimum safe working distance is maintained. Erect a simple
barrier tape at the safe distance.
7.

than the safe working distance, the operator must ensure that the
electricity supply has been switched off. Before commencing work, a
written permit to work must be obtained from the owners of the power
