    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Sets out requirements for mobile elevating work platforms in general and, in addition, those intended for specific applications such as use near live electrical conductors, or operation in orchards, where specific design requirements are necessary to address the risks associated with the intended use. Additional requirements are also specified for portable elevating work platforms.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This Standard specifies requirements for mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs), as defined in Clause 1.3. It does not apply to passenger and goods lifts, builders’ hoists, fixed elevating work platforms, or mast climbing platforms.Section 5 of this Standard provides variation of requirements for MEWPs that are specifically designed for use in orchards.Section 6 of this Standard provides variations of requirements for portable MEWPs.Section 7 of this Standard provides additional requirements for insulated MEWPs.This Standard does not apply to any matter relating to firefighting equipment or to any matter relating to the vehicles upon which elevating work platforms are mounted, except to a vehicle which, while stationary, is a stable support for the extending structure.Appendix A provides a list of typical hazards associated with MEWPs.Appendix B provides explanatory notes on the changes to MEWP insulation that have been introduced in this revision.
