2.1.4 The Danger Area
This is an area defined as that being within a 15m(50’) radius of the vibrator.
Personnel are at risk when within this area from:
•
Falling piles – should the pile be handled incorrectly
•
Liquids under high pressure and associated components
•
Mechanical failures of equipment components
•
Noise – wear ear protection equipment when inside this area
•
Unexpected overturning of the excavator
2.1.5 Transporting the Vibrator
When transporting the vibrator, ensure it is placed correctly in the stand.
Once in place on the stand the jaws must be closed. Release the hydraulic hoses from
the excavator (the hard jaws will remain closed) and cap the hose ends to prevent
contamination. Disconnect the vibrator from the excavator.
2.1.6 Transporting Piles on Site
Transporting a pile using the vibrator should only be done over a small distance, with
the clamp fully engaged on the pile top and with the lifting chain fitted. Should the
grip on the pile be reduced during this procedure, the excavator must stop, and a better
grip effected. Should a pile slip then the lifting chain could snap and cause an accident.
When transporting a pile extreme care must be taken to ensure that no one is in the
Danger Area and that the pile is handled in such a way as to ensure no danger to site
personnel at any time.
In order to avoid extensive transporting, have the piles laid out as close to the point of
installation as possible. Do not use the excavator with the EMV70 installed to handle
bundles of piles around the job site.
