4 - Rescue and emergency procedures

In case of power loss or if an operating problem prevents the platform occupant from descending, a
competent operator can perform the emergency procedures from the ground level.
In an emergency, if the operator has to exit the platform while it is elevated, the transfer of the operator
must respect the following recommendations. :
• Exit onto a sturdy and safe structure.
• The occupant(s) must ensure that 2 lanyards are used for security/safety. One must be attached to
the designated anchorage point on platform the occupant(s) is in and the other attached to the
structure intended to get on.
• Occupant(s) must exit the current platform through the normal access.
The mast must be completely retracted before lowering the jib.

O RESCUE OPERATOR IN PLATFORM
In a situation where an operator located in the platform needs to be rescued (for example in
case of illness, injury or trapped against a structure making the control box inaccessible), the
rescue personel at ground level needs to obtain rapid and direct access to operating functions.
HAULOTTE® provides a ground control emergency system that should be used to safely bring
the operator into such a position that appropriate medical attention could be provided.
The system enables the occupant(s) to descend to ground level, even if an emergency stop button is
activated.
• Turn the control box activation selector key ( 92 ) downwards to activate the ground control box.
• The platform box controls are now de-energized.
• Check that the E-Stop button ( 15 ) at ground is not pressed in.
• To lower the platform, hold down the Enable Switch ( 228 ) and simultaneously activate the desired
control function.
