All crew personnel must wear a hard hat, of proper fit
and classification, and safety glasses.
An OSHA-approved fall protection system is required,
if aerial work is to be performed.
Proper footwear, gloves, hearing protection and protective
clothing may also be required.
Personnel must wear suitable insulating gloves and sleeves
when working around power lines. Do not allow any un-insulated part of
your body to come in contact with pole, load, or equipment.
Keep your Digger Derrick control areas free of obstructions
that may interfere with the controls or the people who may have to operate
them.
Only operate Digger Derrick controls while standing
on the vehicle; never while standing on the ground, unless operating with
Radio Remote controls where the operator does not touch the vehicle and
the ground at the same time.
