The Isoli PNT 280J Cherry Picker has a working height of 28 metres (91ft) and an excellent horizontal outreach of up to 13.7 metres (44ft).
MEWPs, or mobile elevated working platforms, are powered access machines, used in a huge range of construction and warehousing sectors. They are used to move persons, tools and material to working positions, usually at a height. They usually consist of at least a work platform with controls, an extending structure and a chassis.
There are two basic types of MEWPs – ‘booms’, such as cherry pickers, which have both static and mobile forms; and ‘verticals’, such as scissor lifts, that can also be static or mobile.
No, only the MEWP operator requires a licence. However, the passenger will be required to wear the correct PPE.
Previous industry guidance ruled out climbing from the MEWP basket. However, pragmatically, there are times when the safest means of reaching a place at height is to use a MEWP and then climb out. This has been recognised in guidance issued by the International Powered Access Federation (IPAF)
