8 Maintenance
Working in safety also means working with
equipment in accordance with law standards
and under constant control.
Then, the employer must:
• select proper equipment, adapted to the en-
vironment and working conditions and to the
characteristics of the worker who implements
it;
• supervise that it is used appropriately, and
that specific training is provided to workers;
• ensure that the work equipment is:
o installed and used in accordance with
the use instructions;
o subject to proper maintenance in order
to guarantee the permanence of the
safety requirements
o subject to the update of the minimum
safety requirements established with in-
ternational specific regulations.
A correct use of the platform and a regular mainte-
nance are crucial to keep it always in the best work-
ing, efficiency and safety conditions. The frequent
washing of the equipment by high-pressure water jet
machines is crucial to get rid of the harmful remains
coming from the works performed and from atmos-
pheric agents. Before washing, set the MEWP in
driving position, stall the engine and take off the bat-
teries.
To document what has been done, the employer is
therefore required to draw up and update the ap-
propriate equipment control register.
Carefully read and scrupulously follow
the maintenance instructions and safety
laws during the maintenance.
The operations indicated with USER are to be per-
formed by the user.
The operations indicated with C.M.C. shall be per-
formed only by C.M.C. srl or in authorized repair
shops.
Use only C.M.C. original spare parts (even if on the
market there are equivalent or similar parts).
The frequency of the maintenances is indicated in
every table. It is implied a normal use of the equip-
ment; while, for particularly rough uses or in harmful
environments (presence of dust, sand, etc.), an op-
timal maintenance frequency is left to the good
sense of the user.
