When you plan to rent a forklift man cage to finish elevated work tasks including high-position stock maintenance, facility sign installation or top equipment routine inspection, taking safety as the top priority is the basic premise to eliminate unnecessary on-site operation risks.
First, complete pre-use compliance check of the man cage attachment. The selected man cage should be perfectly matched with the corresponding electric forklift model, with no obvious deformation, crack or structural damage on its guardrail, bearing base and connection locking mechanism. All dedicated safety locking pins must be installed in place to prevent accidental disengaging during the whole operation process.
Second, finish full preparation work before lifting. All personnel entering the man cage must wear qualified safety harnesses, which should be firmly tied to the dedicated anchor point inside the cage instead of hanging on external parts of the forklift. The total weight of personnel and tools inside the man cage shall not exceed the rated carrying limit, no overcrowding or stacking of excess heavy materials is allowed.
Third, follow standardized operation specifications strictly. The forklift operator must hold valid corresponding operation qualification, keep the vehicle stay on flat and solid ground during the whole elevated working period, avoid sudden start, emergency brake or sharp turn, and never drive the forklift when personnel are still lifted in the man cage. The surrounding area of the operation site should be enclosed with obvious warning signs to block irrelevant personnel from entering the danger zone.
