What you'll cover

01

WP Class Scope (boom-type >11m)

What the WP licence covers — boom-type EWPs with boom length over 11 metres. What it does NOT cover: scissor lifts (vertical-only travel) and sub-11m boom EWPs. Quoted from the SafeWork NSW HRWL info sheet.

02

Pre-Operational Inspection

The pre-start walk that catches the common defects — hydraulic leaks, tyres, basket condition, controls, emergency descent valve, decals, identification plate. Plant in Workplace COP 2022 grounded.

03

Harness & Anchor Inside the Basket

The harness goes ON. The anchor goes inside the basket — never to the structure outside it. AS/NZS 1891 retirement criteria. AS 2550.10 EWP anchor point requirements.

04

Ground Assessment & Weather

Ground bearing pressure, slope, soft fill, services. Wind speed cut-off per manufacturer's manual (typically 12.5 m/s). Storms, lightning, visibility. The conditions that send the machine back down.

05

Emergency Descent + Rescue + Must-Stop

The emergency descent procedure — ground operator override. The rescue plan written before going up, not after. The five must-stop triggers that take the EWP out of service immediately. Falls COP 2018 grounded.
