A scissor lift is an aerial work platform that moves vertically to enable users to reach heights of up to 20m. The mechanism creates a criss-cross ‘X’ pattern as it rises and lowers, much like a pair of scissors. Scissor lifts are used for construction, maintenance, repairs and general access to high or difficult areas and are utilised by many different industries.

Scissor lifts are meant for temporary works and can be transported to site either loaded onto a trailer or under their own power. There are several types of fuel available, including diesel, battery, bi-fuel, LPG and air-powered units. Scissor lifts come in a variety of sizes to suit different applications – compact and micro scissor lifts are available for tight access areas, for example.

Scissor lifts are controlled by an operator either on the platform or at the base of the unit, or even by remote control. For a scissor lift, the main motion is vertical – moving up or down according to the required working height – whereas some other aerial platforms have a greater range of movement and rotation. However many scissor lifts have extending platforms to increase the working area and allow the operator to get closer to the area they need to operate on.

These types of platforms can be used in a variety of applications, including:

stock picking
maintenance
repairs
construction
events
tree surgery
high-angle filming
industrial
retail and commercial
military
institutional
warehouse
distributioin
aviation and aerospace
agriculture
railways

Scissor lifts require training to operate, and can be dangerous if used without proper instruction and supervision. Regular maintenance and repairs must be carried out on your scissor lift to ensure good working order at all times. Aerial work platforms can be hazardous if not correctly used or maintained, and working at such a height is extremely dangerous. Many powered access equipment companies will provide training, maintenance and repair services according to your needs.

Other types of aerial work platforms are sometimes more appropriate than a scissor lift, for example a boom lift or cherry picker has a wider range of movement than a scissor lift, and a personnel lift is generally more compact and therefore is able to access tighter areas.

Aerial Work Platform Training and Accreditation

If you have a need for powered access equipment but do not have staff correctly trained to the appropriate standard then training can often be set up within just a few days to ensure your schedule can continue with minimal disruption. The best way to do this is to check with your local powered access rental company or provider. Many companies provide a range of powered access training services for the equipment they rent or sell. This can take place at your own site or at specialist training facilities. There should be the choice of specialised training for individual machines as well as IPAF (International Powered Access Federation) and PASMA (Prefabricated Access Suppliers’ and Manufacturers’ Association) training to provide your staff with the proper accreditation and certification.

]]>

There are two degrees of training that you must comply to when using aerial work platforms; general training and familiarisation training.

General training prepares an operative to use a scissor lift, boom lift, personnel lift or trailer-mounted lift. This includes both classroom/formal training as well as practical/hands-on training. One of the benefits of training at a facility is that your staff will have the opportunity to train on a wide variety of aerial work platforms and lifts to maximise their experience. General training covers the following elements:

Operation of an aerial platform under supervision and direction of a qualified person.
Operation of an aerial platform for a sufficient period of time to learn proficient use of all its functions.
The regulations and standards relating to each kind of aerial platform.
The need to perform workplace inspections.
Common hazards and how to recognise/avoid them.
The proper use of equipment manuals.
Operator instructions and warnings.
How to carry out a pre-start inspection
The importance of stability and factors that may affect this.
The use of different personal protective equipment.
The components of different equipment.
The safe use of equipment.
How to select the correct powered access equipment for each job.
How to use larger machines, including the use of outriggers, stabilisers, extendable axles, envelope management systems, load-moment devices and dual capacity.

Familiarisation training prepares an operative to use a specific make and model of aerial work platform by assessment of the equipment and its instruction manual, instructed and directed by a qualified person. This may include:

Location of weather-resistant compartment to access the machine’s manual.
The function and purpose of all controls on the unit.
The use of safety devices and specific operating elements of the machine.

Increasing your staff’s knowledge of the different types of aerial work platform means that you will no longer need to outsource operation of powered access lifts or require supervision for certain jobs. Correct training also ensures that your operators are able to complete their work safely, quickly and efficiently, whether they are using a scissor lift, boom or cherry picker or personnel lift.

Don’t take a risk with powered access training – book your training course today and provide your staff with valuable skills and expertise while keeping them safe and protecting your company from legal and insurance issues.

Ore boat blasts a greeting to Duluth’s Aerial Lift Bridge

Admin — Sun, 24 Jul 2011 08:43:18 +0000

An ore boat blasts a greeting to the Aerial Lift Bridge operators at the world’s most inland seaport in Duluth, Minn., at the end of Lake Superior, the world’s largest lake. It’s an ideal place to admire both “salties,” the smaller ocean-going vessels, and “lakers,” the behemoth iron ore tankers that stretch to 1000 feet (or several football fields) long. The second, higher-pitched horn is the bridge operators answering the boat crew.
