2.2 GENERAL SAFETY STANDARDS

The functioning of the MEWP must be in compliance with international standards of referen‑
ce (see paragraph “NORMATIVE REFERENCES” in the first pages of the manual) and natio‑
nal or regional standards if stricter.
The operator must read, understand and follow all the instructions and warnings, contained
in this manual and on the machine, regarding the safe use of the MEWP.

FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS LISTED IN THIS SECTION
AND STATED ON THE MACHINE CAN CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH OF THE STAFF AND
DAMAGE TO THE MACHINE AND CONSTITUTES A SERIOUS INFRACTION OF THE
SAFETY STANDARDS.

This section of the USE AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL describes those procedures or
dangerous situations that can cause damage/injury to objects/persons and what the operator
must do to prevent them.
• The operator must always act as a professional, complying with safety standards, paying
attention not to under‑estimate his responsibility to himself and all objects and persons that
surround him.
Before starting work it is indispensable that the operator has been completely and
clearly trained regarding the use of the machine in standard and emergency conditions.
That he has examined, understood and taken in all that stated in this user manual. That he
is sure that the safety devices are in perfect working order, that the necessary checks on
the machine are performed and that he becomes familiar with the conditions of the
ground on which he must manoeuvre and stabilise.
• The presence of at least one specialised person is necessary on the ground during working.
This person must know how to use the machine and be aware of the content of the USE AND
MAINTENANCE MANUAL and can intervene if necessary.
• It is prohibited to make modifications to the machine that could jeopardise functioning and
safety, without previous written authorisation from The Constructor which is not liable for
any injury or damage caused by this behaviour.

Protection devices and garments

Do not wear loose clothing, rings, watches or anything else
that may become entangled in moving parts.
When using the machine or performing maintenance wear a
hard helmet, goggles and accident‑prevention shoes, gloves
and hearing protection after having checked their integrity
along with any other IPD that the safety manager deems
necessary according to the risk analysis he has performed.
