6.8.4 U
SE FOR REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE OF ROOFS AND GUTTERS
Remember that it is prohibited to use the platform for the transport of material to a height
even if it is within the capacity limits envisioned by the manufacturer; the MEWP is not a lif‑
ting device.
It is also very important to remember that once the basket has been lifted from the frame it is
prohibited to load objects. Remember that no safety device can help if you are at a height
with the basket overloaded. The emergency descent does not ensure against tilting. The only
way to make things safe is to return within the limits accepted by the basket as quickly as
possible depending on the work configuration, unloading the load from the basket.
6.8.5 U SE FOR PAINTING , SANDING AND PLASTERING
This type of use requires meticulous protection of the machine’s delicate parts such as
hydraulic cylinder rods, their gaskets, safety devices, hydraulic telescopic extensions and
inscriptions on the machine (e.g. manufacturer plate, warning stickers, capacity table etc.). If
sand is mixed with the grease protecting the extensions it becomes an extremely abrasive
mixture, jeopardising the quality of machine movements and its duration.
6.8.6 U SE IN THE MARINE ENVIRONMENT
If the machine is used in particularly corrosive environments and atmospheres the checks
for the formation of rust and the state of greasing and lubrication of the mobile parts must
be performed more frequently than that recommended by the manufacturer for normal con‑
ditions.
It is also good practice to protect the machine well every time it is not to be used, even for
short periods, by covering it to protect from salt and sand transported by the wind.
