  1. I have done the IPAF training too and this wasn't discussed at all. just about driving them on a slope. the slope is not so steep that a car can drive up it so i would say around 20-25% which seems to be within the range of the mewp i am going to hire for this job. I will be very aware of the mewp wanting to slide so will find a way to support it. Its a rough tarmac track so may even drill into the old tarmac and secure some planks to prevent slippage. Sorry not got any pictures
  2. We have a job coming up on dead ash over fibre optics so need to use a mewp. But The mewp will need to be set up on a steep driveway. my questions are, can this be done safely and how would you set a stable platform for the outriggers? is there a model of mewp that the outriggers are able to cope with a large difference in ground level? we are in wales UK. thanks for the advice
