What are the industry norms and standards for high-altitude operations of high-branch saws?

Clarify the job tasks and responsibilities to ensure that each worker understands their own safety responsibilities.

Conduct on-site investigation and risk assessment, check whether the scaffolding is stable, whether there are high-voltage lines in the operation area, and whether there are slippery or falling items, etc., to ensure the safety of the operation environment.

Improve safety protection measures, such as setting up safety warning signs, installing protective nets, and preparing life-saving equipment, etc.

Provide safety training to the workers, covering safety knowledge, operating procedures, emergency plans and other contents, to ensure that everyone knows how to use protective equipment correctly and how to handle emergencies.

Check whether all safety protection facilities are in place, such as safety nets, safety belts, guardrails, etc. Check whether personal protective equipment is in good condition, such as safety helmets, protective glasses, anti-slip shoes, etc. Carefully inspect the scaffolding to see if there are any loose screws, damaged wooden boards or other conditions. The workers should be dressed neatly and all protective equipment should be worn correctly. Set up obvious safety warning signs near the operation area to remind passing personnel and vehicles to pay attention. Ensure that there is sufficient lighting at the work site, especially when working at night. If tools and materials are needed during the operation, make sure they can be transported and stored safely and will not pose a risk of falling.

Safety protection measures during the operation process

Strictly follow the operating procedures for high-altitude work. For instance, when using a safety belt, make sure it is fastened to a reliable fixed point.

Stay highly alert and pay attention to whether the pedals under your feet are stable to avoid missing a step.

Use appropriate tools. It is best to secure the tools with ropes to prevent them from falling and injuring people.

Check in real time whether the safety equipment is functioning properly, such as whether the safety belts are damaged and whether the safety hooks are locked.

Do not carry irrelevant items. Avoid high-altitude operations in windy weather. Do not move the work platform at will and keep your body balanced. If it is necessary to pass tools or materials, use safe methods, such as hoisting them with ropes, and do not throw them. There should be warning signs below the work area and a safety isolation zone should be set up to prevent unauthorized personnel from entering. In case of emergency, such as sudden physical discomfort or equipment failure, work should be stopped immediately and handled in accordance with the emergency response plan.

Post-work cleaning and inspection

Check whether the operation results meet the requirements, such as whether the installed equipment is firm and whether there are any missing links.

Clear the operation site to ensure that no tools, materials or garbage are left on site to prevent potential safety hazards.

Check the safety equipment. If it is damaged, it needs to be replaced or repaired
