Manlift Ticket Vaughan - The Elevated Platforms and Manlifts Certification program helps to provide the required training on the work practices, safe operating procedures, regulations and rules regarding the daily activities for the operators of this machine. The program has been designed for people who are actively involved in these activities or those who have a basic knowledge of this machine.
In the past couple of decades, aerial platforms and manlifts have become a common sight on construction job sites and in industrial maintenance applications. These machines provide an easy way to lift workers near what needs to be done on a stable platform apparatus, enabling workers to do tasks with greater safety and comfort rather than being perched on top of scaffolding or ladders.
The manlift is similar to other industrial tools in that they are safe when used properly. Because they elevate workers above floor or ground level, accidents could easily happen and this might result in serious injuries or death for both the operators of the manlift and any passerby who may be unlucky enough to be standing below.
There are different types of manlifts. The majority fall into 1 of 2 categories: the articulating boom lift, which has the capability of both vertical and horizontal movement and the scissors lift, that is capable of moving up and down.
