PERSONNEL AND TRAINING
All personnel assigned to an Aerial Device shall be given an opportunity to become familiar with the
operation of the equipment before they operate it on a job. The operator and all other personnel should be
familiar with the operating procedures. The operator and personnel shall perform training operations until
they attain a safe degree of proficiency.
NOTE: Refer to the load chart for rated capacities, boom angles and load radius.
NOTE: Do not exceed load chart capacities.
Learn the operators inspection and field maintenance requirements. Many times simple maintenance
procedures can prevent expensive breakdowns. A brief preliminary check of oil levels, operating conditions
of the Aerial Device, and visual inspection of pins, fasteners, and the hydraulic system should be made daily
before the unit is put into service.
The operator should also know the brand and grade of oil used in the hydraulic system and where more can
be obtained if additional oil is needed.
It takes a desire to learn and a pride of accomplishment on the part of the operator to achieve the proficiency
and technique of operation necessary to get the most out of this equipment. The equipment will make the job
easier and more enjoyable if a high degree of proficiency is attained.
A WELL TRAINED CREW IS A PRODUCTIVE CREW!
If service is indicated, do not delay. Malfunction of one component can cause serious
injury to the operator or to others if not corrected immediately.
The ground crew must be trained to operate the Aerial Device in case of emergency.
