GeneralQ Is there any documentation showing that it is okay to tie off to a man-lift basket? I have never found any. How do other contractors deal with ACI requirements of an air lance, knowing that OSHA has contradicting standards of air wand pressure?
OSHA requires that the personnel in aerial man baskets be tied off with the appropriate harness and lanyard. When you are in a JLG or other type of man lift, the only place to tie off to is to the basket or boom bracket. This question may be better answered by studying current OSHA documents.
We cannot recall any of our members being cited for using an air lance or blow pipe.
