2.9 USE OF THE OVERHEAD PLATFORM
When giving the explanations contained in this manual, it is implied that the operator has
read and understood what has already been said in the previous paragraphs in this manual.
There will be therefore fewer repetitions of warnings and photographs than in the previous
parts of the manual.
The Constructor overhead platforms are suitable for doing overhead jobs operating from
inside the control car. The platform must only be used by trained staff who knows the place
and the function of all the controls, tools, indicators, pilot lights and the meaning of the
stickers and indications on the machine.
The operator must have understood the manoeuvring procedures of the platform before ope‑
rating it.
The proper use of the platform foresees, beside the operator (or operators) in the control car,
that there is an experienced ground operator, supervising the machine, ready to intervene in
case of dangerous situations and for any emergency manoeuvres. This implies that the
ground staff must also be properly trained regarding the control functions and the using
procedures and that they have read the manual.
