PERSONNEL HANDLING
Manitowoc Cranes are Designed and Intended for
Handling Material —
NOT FOR HANDLING PERSONNEL.
Check local, state, and foreign country codes before
handling personnel. Regulations of other governmental
agencies may be stricter than those of OSHA. When a
conflict in regulations exists, follow the strictest regulation.
OSHA Regulations* state:
“The use of a crane or derrick to hoist employees on a
personnel platform is prohibited, except when the
erection, use, and dismantling of conventional means of
reaching the work site, such as a personnel hoist, ladder,
stairway, aerial lift, elevating work platform or scaffold,
would be more hazardous, or is not possible because of
structural design or work site conditions.”
* CFR 1926.550, Subpart N, paragraph (g)
