Spotted in the UK a man painting from a push around scissor lift – all good so far – But he is using a machine that is around 500mm too low for the job, so in order to reach the work is standing on the mid rail – never a good idea.
He has rented a Pop Up Plus with a 4.5 metre maximum working height, when he needs a five metre machine. Or a 4.5 metre unit with a 500m ‘Step Up’ option.
Standing on the mid rail while focused on work is dangerous, with feet possibly slipping off resulting in ‘doing themselves a mischief’ a serious one, or worse still going over the side, falling an ending it all, or suffering a life changing injury.
Is it a Death Wish? A mild one perhaps, but it definitely goes in to our Death Wish data base.
Have a safe weekend
