•
Maintain a clearance of at least 10 feet (three meters) between any part of the
machine, its occupants, their tools, and their equipment from any electrical line or
apparatus carrying up to 50,000 volts. One foot (0.3 meters) of additional clearance
is required for every additional 30,000 volts or more.
•
The minimum safe approach distance may be reduced if insulating barriers are
installed to prevent contact, and if the barriers are rated for the voltage of the
line being guarded. These barriers shall not be part of (or attached to) the
machine. The minimum safe approach distance shall be reduced to a distance
within the designed working dimensions of the insulating barrier. This
determination shall be made by a qualified person in accordance with employer,
local, or governmental requirements for work practices near energized equipment.
DO NOT MANEUVER THE MACHINE OR PERSONNEL INSIDE THE PROHIBITED ZONE
(MAD). ASSUME ALL ELECTRICAL PARTS AND WIRING ARE ENERGIZED UNLESS KNOWN
OTHERWISE.
Tipping Hazards
•
Be sure the bearing surface is
solid, stationary, and capable of
supporting the intended load.
•
Before entering the platform, ensure
that all outriggers have been properly
installed and all leveling jacks are
fully extended and bearing weight.
•
Check to be sure the chassis is
level according to the bubble level
indicator on the chassis and all
wheels are completely off of
the ground.
Note:
The platform will not release from its docked position unless each outrigger is in its
proper position and bearing weight.
