Working in safety also means working with
equipment in accordance with law standards and
under constant control.
Then, the employer must:
• select appropriate equipment, adapted to the
environment 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 international
specific regulations.
A correct use of the platform and a regular maintenance
are crucial to keep it always in the best working,
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 atmospheric agents. Before
washing, set the MEWP in driving position, stall the
engine and take off the batteries.
To document what has been done, the employer is
therefore required to draw up and update the appropriate
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 performed
by the user.
The operations indicated with C.M.C. shall be performed
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 equipment; while,
for particularly rough uses or in harmful environments
(presence of dust, sand, etc.), an optimal maintenance
frequency is left to the good sense of the user.
If an intervention that is different from the
following ones is necessary, ask the
Technical Assistance Service for
authorization and instructions.
