SAFETY
Read all of Section B and this section before attempting any procedure. Pay particular attention to all Notes, Cautions and Warnings.
GENERAL
The following text is provided as recommended by part II of American Society of Mechanical Engineers / American
National Standards Institute ASME/ANSI B56.8-2006. The manufacturer strongly endorses the contents of this specifi-
cation.
PART II
FOR THE USER
4 GENERAL SAFETY PRACTICES
4.1 Introduction
4.1.1
Like other machines, carriers can cause injury if improperly used or maintained. Part II contains broad safety
practices applicable to carrier operations. Before operation, the user shall establish such additional specific safety
practices as may reasonably be required for safe operation.
4.2 Stability
4.2.1
Experience has shown that carriers which comply with the provisions stated in para. 7.3.9 are stable when
properly operated and when operated in accordance with specific safety rules and practices established to meet actual
operating terrain and conditions. However, improper operation, faulty maintenance, or poor housekeeping may contrib-
ute to a condition of instability and defeat the purpose of the standard. Some of the conditions which may affect stability
are failure of the user to follow safety practices; also, ground and floor conditions, grade, speed, loading, the operation
of the carrier with improper loads, battery weight, dynamic and static forces, and the judgement exercised by the car-
rier operator.
(a) The user shall train carrier operators to adhere strictly to the operating instructions stated in this Standard.
(b) The user shall survey specific operating conditions and environment, and establish and train carrier operators to
comply with additional, specific safety practices.
4.3 Nameplates, Markings, Capacity, and Modifications
4.3.1
The user shall maintain in a legible condition all nameplates, warnings, and instructions which are supplied
by the manufacturer.
4.3.2
The user shall not perform any modification or addition which affects capacity or safe operation, or make
any change not in accordance with the owner’s manual without the manufacturer’s prior written authorization. Where
authorized modifications have been made, the user shall ensure that capacity, operation, warning, and maintenance
instruction plates, tags, or decals are changed accordingly.
4.3.3
As required under paras. 4.3.1 or 4.3.2, the manufacturer shall be contacted to secure new nameplates,
warnings, or instructions which shall then be affixed in their proper place on the carrier.
4.4 Fuel Handling and Storage
4.4.1
The user shall supervise the storage and handling of liquid fuels (when used) to be certain that it is in accor-
dance with appropriate paragraphs of ANSI/NFPA 505 and ANSI/NFPA 30.
4.4.2
Storage and handling of liquefied petroleum gas fuels shall be in accordance with appropriate paragraphs of
ANSI/NFPA 505 and ANSI/NFPA 58. If such storage or handling is not in compliance with these standards, the user
shall prevent the carrier from being used until such storage and handling is in compliance with these standards.
4.5 Changing and Charging Storage Batteries for Electric Personnel and Burden Carriers
4.5.1
The user shall require battery changing and charging facilities and procedures to be in accordance with
appropriate paragraphs of ANSI/NFPA 505.
