Obtain PTW Identify work area

Injury / damage as a result of incorrect information Risk of injury due to low awareness of work environment, Unauthorised operator, Mechanical failure, Falling from heights, Scissors lift topples, Coming into contact with Instruments, Valves or other items.

Obtain correct PTW. Training in PTW system. Operators for this task will be trained and competent in the use of SCISSOR LIFTS no other person is to operate the SCISSOR LIFT for this task, First task is to complete your daily checks to assess that the SCISSOR LIFT is in a safe working condition and complete the attached logbook for future reference. Check all oil and fuel levels where applicable or the charge level of the Electric type units. Prior to SCISSOR LIFT set up assess area for obstructions, drains, uneven or unstable ground and any other item that may raise a concern for the work crew. At all times while driving the SCISSOR LIFT along road ways etc the occupants of the work platform of the scissor lift must keep inside the platforms safety rails If the area that requires the use of a scissor lift is congested, then it is advisable to gain the services of an observer to assist the operator to gain access into the area with out the risk of damage to live plant, equipment or personnel

Set up scissor lift

Fire / explosion

Gain a clearance and permit prior to setting scissor lift up on Roadway. The small electric scissor lift is best to be transported to the relevant work sites with the use of a Franna crane to maintain a high battery level. Scissor lift to be directed to set up area by competent person. Scissor lift to operated (driven) and be set up on firm and level foundation as per manufacturers specifications. While setting up scissor lift and equipment if anything is assessed as a physical risk ask for assistance. If the scissor lift is fitted with an attachment point for a safety harness then all occupants of the scissor lift must wear an approved harness. Visually monitor all scissor lift movements and ask for assistance if vision is obscured. Conduct take 5 and Job Start meeting with the entire work crew to discus tasks at hand any potential hazard that may impact on the safety of Personnel. Gain all relevant road closures to eliminate uncontrolled traffic movement in work area. If the scissor lift is working or parked on the Refinery road system then we must protect our work area, personnel and scissor lift by placing high visibility barricading around this area to eliminate any access from unauthorised vehicles, pedestrians or bicycles from entering the danger zone. While working near the edge of Roadways keep Scissor lift a minimum of 1 metre from the edge of the roadway and operate under the guidance of a spotter. If during the scissor lifts operation the supporting surface subsides or shows signs of the scissor lift wheels penetrating and sinking into the ground or if the work area has altered and is deemed to be unsafe, stop work and contact the work group Supervisor. Make the area safe and then once the concerns are discussed if there is an alternative location the scissor lift can be positioned then conduct a new job start meeting and continue on or if the area cannot be deemed safe to continue, stop the work until it is deemed safe to do so.

Prepare to carry out tasks from scissor Scissor lift topples lift platform Fire, explosion Collision with plant, equipment, Vehicles or personnel. FALLING FROM HEIGHTS Edge of road way collapses

Install and remove equipment as required

Falling tools people below Fall from Scissor lift High winds Hand or eye injury

Barricade work area at ground level to prevent people entering in the danger zone for falling objects Position the scissor lift so that personnel working from the work platform do not have to lean out or over reach past the railing to complete the task. If this is a requirement then stop work and conduct another take 5 and job start to discus the risks and an alternate method for completion of the task at hand. Access the risk from high winds and Electrical storms on a regular basis. halt the job if necessary, assess the conditions and if cleared up conduct take 5 and job start. Gloves and safety glasses must be worn When placing scissor lift into lay down or parking area maintain minimum of 1 metre clearance between the scissor lift wheels and the edge of the roadway. As a suggestion with the small electric scissor it is efficient to transport this unit with a franna crane. Please note this is a guide only for firm and stable ground and each area must be assessed on an individual basis prior to this motion-taking place. The electric scissor lift requires that it is placed on charge at the end of each night, gain all relevant permits and clearances and plug in the tested electrical lead to the end of the unit where the battery L.E.D lights a positioned. electric scissor it is efficient to transport this unit with a franna crane.
