the machine, using two hands and one foot or two feet
and one hand at all times during entry and exit.
• Platform-to-structure transfers at elevated positions are
discouraged. Where transfer is necessary, enter/exit
through the gate only with the platform within 1 foot
(0.3m) of a safe and secure structure. 100% tie-off is
also required in this situation utilizing two lanyards.
One lanyard must be attached to the platform with the
second lanyard attached to the structure. The lanyard
connected to the platform must not be disconnected
until such time the transfer to the structure is safe and
complete.
• Keep oil, mud, and slippery substances cleaned from
footwear and the platform floor.
Electrocution Hazards
• This machine is not insulated and does not provide
protection from contact with an electrically charged
