use a lift truck to lift people unless it has been determined
that there is no other practical option (scaffolds, elevated
work platforms, aerial baskets, etc.) to perform the needed
work.
WARNING
If a lift truck is used to elevate a worker, a safety plat-
form must be attached to the forks and carriage. The
safety platform must be built to meet or exceed the re-
quirements of ANSI B56.1. The safety platform must
have a solid floor with a surface to prevent the feet of
the worker from slipping. It must have a hand rail, toe
board and a screen or shield at least 2 meters (7 feet)
high between the people on the platform and the lift
mechanism.
Before anyone is allowed in the platform, lift and low-
er the mast slowly with the platform in place to make
sure the mast functions properly. Apply the park
brake. Do not travel with people in the platform. The
operator must remain at the controls. Watch for over-
head obstructions.

5. Elevators - - Do not drive a lift truck into a elevator
unless authorized to do so. Approach the elevator slowly.
After the elevator is properly leveled, the lift truck must be
centered so that the elevator is balanced.
When the lift truck is in
the proper position in
the elevator, set the
brakes, put the controls
in NEUTRAL, and shut
off the power. It is advis-
able that all other per-
sonnel leave the eleva-
tor before the lift truck
enters or leaves.
