Overturning hazard
• Before driving the machine (with self-propelled machine), the user must check the work area
surface. While driving, do not exceed the allowed transversal and longitudinal slopes;
• Do not lift the cage or drive the machine (on a self-propelled machine) on a slope or uneven or
soft surface;
• Before driving the machine on floors, bridges, lorries and other surfaces, check their maximum
capacity;
• Do not exceed the maximum capacity of the machine. Evenly distribute the loads on the loading
platform as best as possible;
• Keep the machine chassis (including stabilisers if present) at a minimum distance of 0.5 m from
holes, unevenness, descents, obstacles, debris, hidden holes and other potential dangers found
at ground level;
• Do not attempt using the machine as a crane. Do not tie the machine to any adjacent structure;
• Do not increase the dimension of the cage or the loading platform with unauthorised extensions;
• If the extending structure or the cage get stuck so that one or more wheels are lifted from the
ground, the operator must be made to get off the cage before attempting to release the machine.
Use a crane, forklift or other adequate equipment to stabilise the machine and have personnel
climb down from the cage;
• (For machine not self-propelled) Do not move the machine with the stabilisers engaged (if any)
or with the extending structure raised. Before moving the machine, completely lower the
extensible structure.
Crushing and impact hazard
• When using the machine or lifting or lowering the cage, check the distances above, on the sides
and below the cage;
• Do not lean over the cage rails when the machine is running;
• Always pay the utmost attention to prevent the operational controls and people in the cage from
being hit or hindered by any obstacles;
• Ensure the operators of other machines at a height or at ground level are informed of the
presence of the machine;
• Warn personnel not to work, stand or walk underneath the lifted cage;
• (For machine with self-propeller) When driving in areas where visibility is limited by obstacles,
always have a person precede the vehicle to signal any dangers;
• (For machine with self-propeller) While driving, always keep non-operational personnel at a
minimum distance of 2 m from the machine.
• (For machine with self-propeller) Adjust the driving speed according to the following conditions:
ground surface, traffic, visibility, slope, location of personnel and other factors that can pose a
risk of collision or injuries to personnel;
