6.1 SAFETY STANDARDS TO ADOPT BEFORE USING THE PLATFORM
6.1.1 E
LECTROCUTION HAZARD
If the machines must be used in proximity of electric power lines, the user must remain at a
suitable distance from them. The table below supplies the values relative to the minimum
distance from the electric power lines depending on their type of voltage.

Keep at a safe distance from distribution mains and electric plants considering the possi‑
ble movement span of your work platform and its oscillations, also consider the oscilla‑
tions of the power lines.
Before starting the operations, examine the work area, taking note of overhead
power lines, moving machinery, e.g. overhead cranes and road, rail and building
equipment.
6.1.2 D
ANGER DUE TO ATMOSPHERIC CONDITIONS
DO NOT OPERATE IN UNFAVOURABLE ATMOSPHERIC CONDITIONS
Do not operate in the presence of storms, snow, fog or wind exceeding 12 m/s.
Do not start the machine when the environmental temp. falls below –10°C or exceeds +40°C.
Do not recharge the machine when the temperature is below 0°C or above 40°C.
If you should be surprised by unexpected rain, before re‑starting work remember always to
check the correct stabilisation of the platform and check that the ground has sufficient consi‑
stency. Check that water has not penetrated into the electric contacts.
