2.9.9 MAIN USES PLANNED FOR THE PLATFORM
You will find below the specific warnings for the most frequent uses of the platform. What
follows is integrative and does not replace the contents of the Instructing and operating
manual.
2.9.9.1 SYSTEMS
A simple but important recommendation is to always check that the parts you intervene on
are not under tension. When in doubt, ask the ground staff to check. Remember also not to
come close to the electric lines keeping at a proper distance from the voltage they carry (see
specifications given in this manual).
2.9.9.2 CLOSED PREMISES
To operate in closed premises, the Constructor recommends to opt as much as possible for
the electric engine; If it is not possible make sure there is a sufficient change of air to avoid
accumulating gases harmful to people’s health.
Always remember that if the light in the working place is not sufficient, you must equip
yourself with extra lighting devices.
2.9.9.3 USING FOR PRUNING
This use requires caution to avoid the lost of the machine stability. Remember that:
‑
if branches or trunks fall on the safety devices of the machine this could cause breakage;
‑
the fall of plant parts could damage the machine;
‑
the fall of plant parts could press the ground emergency pushbutton. In this case you
lose control of the machine and you need to ask the ground staff to intervene;
‑
the pruning tools like chain saws exercise a strong force toward the outside of the basket
edge;
‑
Always check beforehand that the shrub to cut cannot fall on any parts of the platform
or the basket.
2.9.9.4 USE FOR REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE OF ROOFS AND RAIN PIPES
