Manlift Ticket Hamilton - The Manlifts and Elevated Platforms program offers training on the regulations, rules and right application of safe operating procedures and work practices involved in daily activities for people who work making use of this equipment. The program has been designed for individuals who are actively involved in these activities or those who have a basic knowledge of this machine.
Aerial platforms and manlifts have become common and integral machinery in industrial settings in the past few decades. These machinery provide an easy way to lift employees close to what needs to be done on a stable platform apparatus, enabling workers to perform tasks with greater safety and comfort rather than being perched on top of scaffolding or ladders.
Similar to every other device, manlifts are just safe if they are used properly. Because they elevate workers above ground level or floor, accidents could easily happen and this can cause serious fatalities or injuries for both the operators of the manlift and whoever passerby who might be unlucky enough to be standing below.
Manlifts come in a variety of types. The majority fit into 1 or 2 categories: the scissor lift, that is capable of moving up and down and the articulating boom lift, that could move both vertically and horizontally.
