Guelph Manlift Ticket - The Manlifts and Elevated Platforms program provides training on the rules, regulations and correct application of safe operating measures and work practices included in daily activities for those who work with this equipment. The course has been designed for individuals who are actively involved in these activities or individuals who have a basic understanding of this machinery.
manlifts and aerial platforms have become common and integral machines in industrial settings during the past few decades. These equipment provide an easy way to lift employees close to what needs to be performed on a stable platform apparatus, enabling workers to carry out tasks with greater safety and comfort rather than being perched on top of scaffolding or ladders.
Like every other tool, manlifts are only safe when they are used correctly. Since they elevate staff above floor or ground level, accidents can take place easily and this might result in serious injuries or death for both the manlift operators as well as any passerby who may be unlucky enough to be standing beneath.
Manlifts come in a variety of types. Nearly all fit into 1 or 2 categories: the scissor lift, which is capable of moving up and down and the articulating boom lift, that can move both vertically and horizontally.
