In ITALY the owner of the Aerial Platform must notify the use of the machine to the local competent INAIL and submit it
to periodical compulsory tests. The first of such checks is performed by the INAIL within sixty days from a request being
made. In the event of such time passing without the inspection being made, the employer can call in the ASL (Local
Health Unit) or qualified public or private services. Subsequent tests are carried out by the already-mentioned parties
within thirty days from a request being made. In the event of such time passing without these tests being made, the
employer can call in qualified public or private services. The employer (machine owner) is to bear all costs of the afore
mentioned check-ups and tests. The local inspection Authorities (ASL/USL, ARPA and INAIL) may appoint any other
qualified public or private service to carry out the test. In this case, the appointed private Authorities will act on behalf of
Inail (State Authority) by the same powers and qualification of the latter.
Italian Customers using the machine in Italy: please notify successful commissioning of the machine to the competent
INAIL department using the special form found with the other delivery documents and send it by registered letter with bill
of receipt.
INAIL will assign the machine a serial number and fill out a “Technical Data Sheet” on the day of
the first installation test. The Data Sheet will exclusively contain the main details of the equipment
as-is that will be checked off against the information contained in the instruction manual.
The
“Technical Data Sheet” will form an integral part of the machine.
