When we first got ours, we found that the best way of working was whilst dismantling, just send 1 man ahead loosening all the fittings. The guys behind are just lifting gear and sending it down. Once we did the risk assessment though, we had to change the method to be a bit more conservative, due to the vibration and noise restrictions. On the erect, spanner hand puts in the squares and robo scaff fills everything in. Nobody will touch you for speed working that way.
Not a chance if it's done correctly by experienced men.
I have to laugh at all these tw@ts that turn up on a job with their brand new tools tethered to their body. That super dooper elimin8 thingwy is another that brings a smile to my face. The reason being, what is the 21 foot ladder beam their throwing about tethered to?
Quite right too. It was the same on the wee firms as well. Close off the area being struck. The only real difference between the two as far as I can tell, if there was a requirement for an investigation on a small firm it would usually end up with the culprit being banished to hump gear for eternity or just a little change of personnel.
