4.7.1
Before and during the movements with MEWP in
transport position
It is forbidden to rent the MEWP without non-trained operators and
staff.
The hirer is responsible for the training of his operators and of the staff
renting the MEWP. C.M.C. s.r.l. declines any responsibility coming from
damages to people and/or things due to the inexperience of these oper-
ators;
Do not use the MEWP under drug or alcohol effect;
Do not use the MEWP under stress conditions;
Do not use the MEWP if you suffer from dizzy spells;
Before driving, check the tires wear state and the correct inflation pres-
sure;
Drive with caution, respecting the highway code;
Take the MEWP height overall dimensions into consideration during cir-
culation, in order to avoid clashing against bridges, galleries, under-
passes and other obstacles;
Do not use the MEWP to perform drawing or pushing operations;
Do not use the MEWP as an off-road vehicle;
4.7.2
Before positioning the MEWP
Carefully and chronologically follow the instructions given in this manual;
Use the MEWP only with the environmental operating conditions indi-
cated in paragraph 4.1;
Check that the staff allowed to use the MEWP is skilled and trained,
and that they know the MEWP use and maintenance rules;
Check that the safety devices are working and efficient; some compo-
nents (outriggers integrated groups, max pressure valve on the turret),
important for the MEWP safety, are calibrated in C.M.C. plants and the
containers are sealed before delivering of the MEWP to the customer.
It is strictly forbidden to tamper with such components. The absence
of the sealing within the machine warranty terms causes the immedi-
ate retraction of the warranty as well as the accountability – by the
user – of the liabilities coming from an incorrect functioning of the
safety devices.
Do not remove or modify safety devices;
It is forbidden to modify, remove or replace any MEWP component
(ballasts, tires, batteries, spare tire etc.): this operation could reduce
the machine weight thus impairing its stability;
Wear all the protective cloths and the personal safety devices:
helmets, safety shoes and - according to the type of work - gloves, hear-
ing protections, respirators, etc.;
Do not use clothes with hanging flaps, scarves, ties or any other ac-
cessory which could be dragged into the moving parts; inform about
the closest fire-extinguishers and first-aid kit.
4.7.3
During the positioning of the MEWP
It is forbidden to operate in situations which are dangerous for the
safety of people;
Do not operate in explosion hazard areas;
Check that the working area is suitable to the MEWP performances and
operations, and that it is enough lit;
