Aerial work platforms (man lifts) use an electric-hydraulic or electric-mechanical scissor or mast system to raise an operator and their tools to height. All ground and platform controls are designed for one-person operation.
Ground Controls
All functions — drive, steer, and lift — are available from the ground control panel at the base of the unit. Use ground controls for initial positioning and for emergency lowering. Ground controls override platform controls when the key switch is set to "ground" mode.
Platform Controls
A control box mounted on the platform guard rail operates drive, steering, and lift from elevated position. The deadman switch (hold-to-run) on the lift/lower lever must be held continuously — releasing it stops all motion immediately.
Outrigger Deployment
Before raising above a defined height (typically 6 feet), the outriggers must be deployed and load indicators must confirm level ground contact. The lift will not raise above the outrigger threshold if any outrigger shows inadequate ground contact.
Emergency Lower
A manual hydraulic pump or gravity-controlled valve at the base of the unit lowers the platform in the event of power failure. The emergency lower valve is clearly labeled and accessible without tools. Familiarize all operators with its location before first use.
⚙️ Deadman / Hold-to-Run
All platform motion controls require continuous hold-to-run activation. Releasing the control lever stops all motion immediately. The deadman system means a worker losing consciousness or balance halts the machine automatically.
🔒 Tilt Interlock
An electronic inclinometer prevents lift operation beyond the rated slope. If the machine is on a slope exceeding the interlock threshold, the lift function is disabled until the machine is moved to level ground.
📏 Outrigger Interlock
The lift cannot raise above a set height until all outriggers show positive ground contact. Even a single outrigger without firm contact blocks elevation above the interlock threshold — preventing tip-over on soft or uneven ground.
🛡️ Platform Fall Protection
Full-perimeter guardrail system with mid-rail meets OSHA 1910.29 and ANSI/SAIA A92.20 requirements. A self-closing entry gate prevents the operator from exiting the platform at height. D-ring anchor points are rated for fall arrest attachment.
How does this compare?
At 40 feet, you're choosing between scissor and boom lifts. Scissors at this height offer more platform space (useful for materials staging) but no horizontal reach beyond the machine's footprint. If you need to reach out over obstacles, look at a 40-foot boom. If you're going straight up to a fixed ceiling — stadium lights, HVAC, sprinkler systems — the scissor gives you more platform to work from.
