Lifting of persons
Lifting of persons:
The transport or lifting of persons other than the operator is for-
bidden without special training and an approved work platform. The following meas-
ures to protect personnel must be taken if a working platform is used to lift persons
with industrial trucks designed and intended for handling goods:
– The working platform must the manufacturer requirements provided in
ASME B56.1-2003;
– Provide protection for personnel in their normal working position on the platform
against potentially dangerous moving parts of the industrial truck;
– Ensure that the required retaining devices such as banisters, chains, ropes, safety
belt(s) with link(s), or drop dampers, etc. are in place and used as intended;
– Ensure that the lifting device moves smoothly over the entire lifting height, both
empty and loaded, and that all lift cut-out devices and stops, if applicable, are func-
tioning;
– An overhead guard must be installed where required by operating conditions;
– Any safety belt, link or drop damper that has been permanently deformed or other-
wise damaged must be replaced.
Whenever an industrial truck is equipped with a working platform (except high lift in-
dustrial trucks with moving driver’s cabin), the measures for the owner as defined in
ASME B56.1-2003 and the following measures for personnel protection must be tak-
en:
– Provide a platform meeting the manufacturer requirements as per ASME B56.1-
2003;
– Only permit its use on a truck which complies with the requirements as per ASME
B56.10-1992 (manually propelled high lift industrial trucks);
– Attach the platform fixtures and securely fasten the platform to fork carrier or fork;
– Fork carriers and/or forks used for lifting persons and carrying the platform must be
protected against turning;
– The lifting mast must remain perpendicular – do not operate it in a laterally tilted
position;
– The platform must remain level and centered and not tilted forward or backward
during lifting;
– The industrial truck must be level and firmly positioned;
– Set all travel controls to neutral and apply the parking brake;
– Before lifting persons mark the work area with cones or other devices to warn of
work by elevated personnel;
– Lift and lower persons smoothly and carefully, and only upon express request;
– Avoid overhead obstacles and power lines;
– Keep your hands and feet away from all controls not in use;
– Move the industrial truck and/or the platform slowly and make minor horizontal
movements only if persons are on the platform, and do this upon request only;
– Rotary devices attached to industrial trucks must be mechanically locked to prevent
any movement;
– A trained operator must be present in position to control the industrial truck or he
must be available to operate the controls. The parking brake must be applied if the
driver is not in position;
