Crane
suspended personnel platforms Question: Does OSHA require a specific load rating for each occupant of a platform? Answer: No. OSHA only requires an overall rated load. LTI uses 300 pounds per man, tools & materials. (One exception: Washington State OSHA requires rating to be 500 pounds for the first person and 250 pounds for each additional person.) Q: What if I am only going to lift two men but need a higher rated capacity? A: No problem! We'll design the basket to accommodate a higher rated capacity and furnish a larger test weight for the load testing. Q: Can I have an access gate in my personnel platform? A: Access gates are available on almost all models Q: Is overhead protection required by OSHA? A: Overhead protection is required ONLY when there is a danger of falling objects from above. This is an available option on any of our platforms. Q: Is there an additional charge for the test weight system and sling assembly? A: No. Our platforms are always sold on a turn-key basis, providing everything needed from the crane hook down. Q: Are platforms available in colors other than what is shown on the site or in your literature? A: Yes, we can Powdercoat in virtually any color you choose. |

work platforms Question: Is the Quick Claw Safety System on your platforms required by OSHA? Answer: OSHA simply requires a forklift platform to be secured to the truck in some fashion. We provide the Quick Claw system in addition to security chains for optimum safety. Q: Can I purchase a platform that I can use with both my crane and forklift? A: We believe, for safety reasons, each platform should be dedicated either to a crane or a forklift. Q: Do forklift platforms fall under as much scrutiny as crane-suspended platforms? A: No. However, OSHA has proposed rules for forklift platforms that will become law some time in the near future. (A copy of these rules is available from LTI in our mail package. See our mailing page for more information.) |

"The platform looks very good and was viewed by my supervisor with similar reaction. Thank you for your company's impeccable service and we look forward to future dealings with LTI."
