Fall Protection Requirements on Elevated Work Platforms =======================================================

This document outlines the safety requirements for fall protection when using a harness and lanyard on an elevated work platform, specifically concerning the use of an external fall arrest system. It is essential to adhere to these guidelines to ensure operator safety and regulatory compliance.

General Fall Protection Requirements


Personnel working on elevated work platforms must use fall protection at all times when utilizing the external fall arrest system. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20]

Harness and Lanyard Specifications


A full body harness is required for fall protection. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20]

The lanyard must not exceed 6 ft (1\.8 m) in length. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20]

The lanyard must limit the maximum arrest force to 900 lb (408 kg) for the trans-fastener type and 1350 lb (612 kg) for the shuttle type fall arrest system. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20]

Operational Safety


Do not operate any machine functions while outside the platform. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20]

Use caution when entering/exiting the platform at elevation. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20]

Only one person is allowed to use the external fall arrest system at a time. The external Fall Arrest System capacity is 310 lb (140 kg) - one (1\) person maximum. [1] [2] [3] [4] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20]

Entering and Exiting the Platform


Always exit/enter the platform through the gate area only. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20]

Additional Information


For more detailed information, consult the JLG External Fall Arrest System manual (PN 3128935\). [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20]
