AS 2550.10-2006 PDF
Specifies requirements for the safe use of mobile elevating work platforms.
This Standard was prepared by the Australian members of the Joint Standards Australia/Standards New Zealand Committee ME-005 to supersede AS 2550.10—1994, Cranes—Safe use, Part 10: Elevating work platforms.
This Standard incorporates Amendment No. 1 (April 2009). The changes required by the Amendment are indicated in the text by a marginal bar and amendment number against the clause, note, table, figure or part thereof affected.
The objective of the AS 2550 series of Standards is to provide uniform requirements and guidance for the safe use of cranes, hoists and winches.
Most of the changes from the 1994 edition reflect the fact that Part 10 was the first type-specific Standard in the AS 2550 series, and there have been many advances in the requirements for safe use since then, both through technology and identified by experience.
Other changes have been made to ensure compatibility with occupational health and safety legislation across Australia.
