AVOID TRAPPED LOOPS
When winding a line with no load back to the winch drum, lower the boom so that a crewman with gloves can
make sure that it is wound level. Trapped loops will damage the winch line or cause a load to drop on the
next winch pay out operation.
CONDUCTOR LIFTING (OPTIONAL)
With the proper attachment, a conductor can be lifted with the Aerial Device. The weight of the conductor
must be known and within the lift capacity shown on the load chart. Lifting conductors on an angled structure
is not allowed. The jib is not considered insulating, so only non-energized, grounded lines can be lifted,
unless a insulating line lifting device is used.
Only inspected and tested insulating attachments with foam filled, hot stick rated glass sections or insulating
links on the load line can be used to lift live lines. The attachments must be tested, maintained, and
inspected before each use.
PHASE LIFTERS (OPTIONAL)
The single and multiple phase lifters are used for lifting conductors during crossarm or pole changeouts.
Single and multiple phase lifters can be used in conjunction with optional mechanical, or hydraulic jib
extension.
To operate the phase lifters, position the Aerial Device below the conductors. Pin bracket to jib with manual
pin assembly. Place conductors in conductor holders and latch holders. Lift the conductors away from the
pole. Lifting live lines requires the Phase Lifter is rated to insulate between the phases and between the
phases and the boom tip.
Always keep the winch line wound level and tight on the winch drum.
Do not pull poles or pull any objects embedded in ground. Death or serious injury will
result.
Failure to properly insulate conductors from the boom tip will energize the entire boom tip
including controls.
Use only approved hot line tools for lifting energized conductors. Clean and inspect all
fiberglass on the conductor lifter before use. Dirty or damaged fiberglass may be
conductive.
