Got it and the Landbased Machinery MEWP ticket back in 2008.

I think you should have CS41 for that. And use of saw from a MEWP as well. CLimbing with saw ticket covers using one from a mewp. (top handles that is, if they are using larger saws that may be ok)

 

Good question for AA tec.

 

 

PHEW, picked this one up by luck rather than good management.

 

If we were presented with this scenario on an AAAC worksite audit, as we have been previously, we'd be looking for CS41 (which would mean they'd have to have CS39 anyway) and a MEWP ticket (if they were 'steering' it).

 

With this combination we wouldn't require they had CS47 (Chainsaw in MEWP) as those skills are conisdered covered by the other units.

 

That's the easy bit (to assess) the hard bit is whether they are deemed 'competent and proficient' in the operation. If not, regardless of NPTCs, they'd fa**...sorry, they wouldn't pass!

 

Cheers..

PS Excellent, I'm getting 'brieferer' in my replies....RELIEF!

[Rupe]

Good reply!

 

I was hoping the poster might forward the question to the AA section, you shouldn't have to trawl the whole forum looking for possible questions to answer, but you did so no worries

I might not want to talk to the AA direct, although I appreciate AA teccies input to my thread.

 

If this is in the wrong place, then I'm sure it will be moved.

As long as you have CS39 and an IPAF (International Powered Access Federation) ticket you should be fine:001_smile:

Cheers fellas.

 

The reason I was intrested in the answer is that I have very little knowledge of working with MEWPs. However I see others using them knowing they have NO climbing tickets and think, that can't be right.....but was not sure.

That's because you don't need anything apart from a driving licence to hire one
