2.3.1GeneralSafetyInstructionsforGroundSupportEquipment(GSE)
Follow these procedures when operating GSE on ramp:
Use all safety devices fitted on GSE (e.g. bumpers, handrails, stabilizers, etc.) during aircraft
handling and servicing.
Ensure protective rubber bumpers ARE NOT compressed against the aircraft fuselage.
2.3.2BasicOperatingRequirementsforGSE
• Check all GSE involved in aircraft handling at the start of a shift (at least once per day). In
particular the check the parking brake, rubber protective bumpers, 'E' Stops and other
safety systems and all other proximity sensors.
• Perform a vehicle/equipment walk around check prior to its use.
• Apply parking brakes and place the gear selector in the “PARK or “NEUTRAL” position on
all GSE when it is parked or positioned.
• When positioning GSE, maintain clearance between all GSE and the aircraft to allow for
vertical movement of the aircraft during the entire ground handling process to prevent
contact between the aircraft and equipment.
• Do not carry extra personnel during GSE movement without an approved seat - apply the
“no seat-no ride” principle.
• Do not operate vehicles or equipment while using hand-held portable electronic devices.
• After positioning equipment on the aircraft, raise all safety rails on conveyor belts, loaders
and other devices - except where restricted by aircraft type.
• If needed, walk only on the rubberized conveyor belt portion of the conveyor.
• Do not walk on the conveyor while the vehicle or belt are in motion
7 Pick up and dispose all FOD in designated garbage bins
CAUTION: Only trained and authorized personnel are allowed to drive or
operate specific GSE.
