Recommendations

Info

• Prior to the movement of any ground support equipment a walk-around check must be made. • Hoses or cables on equipment must be securely stowed when the unit is moved. • Elevating devices must not be driven in the elevated position except for final positioning. • Baggage/cargo must not be transported on equipment not specifically designed for that purpose. • Cargo should be stowed evenly, in cargo carts, with heavy pieces on the bottom and the centre to ensure stability. All doors, gates and curtains should be secured to prevent cargo from falling out. • The movement of carts/dollies by hand-operated equipment is very simple, however, it has resulted in many injuries, and additional care must be taken. • Loaded transporters and dollies must have the load secured from movement by the use of locks, stops, rails or straps at ALL times, except when the load is being transferred onto or off the equipment. All locks, stops, rails and straps should be checked every time before use. • Trains of carts/dollies tend to “drift in” or shorten the turning radius on corners. Therefore, drivers should avoid turning prior to, or immediately after, passing an obstacle. • Unserviceable equipment should be clearly tagged “Out of Service” and immediately be sent to the repair/maintenance department. • When positioning equipment, special care must be exercised to ensure adequate clearance of vehicles, aircraft, other equipment and facilities. • When operator vision is restricted (such as positioning certain pieces of equipment to or backing away from an aircraft) a guide person should be used. • Standard hand signals must be used to guide ground support equipment. • The guide person must be positioned so that clearances can be accurately judged and be visible/able to communicate the signals to the vehicle operator at all times. If visual contact with the guide person is lost, the driver will stop immediately. - 18 -
• When electrical/motorised equipment are in operating mode, an operator must be within easy reach of the emergency controls that have their engines running may not be left unattended in the stand area. The operator must remain in driving position, in control at all times. Circle of Safety Personnel shall observe a virtual operational safety buffer zone when positioning motorised vehicles/equipment to an aircraft. The following processes shall be adhered to at all times; • Conduct a vehicle/equipment pre-operational check including a brake test prior to operating motorised vehicles/equipment; • All motorised vehicles/equipment must make a minimum of one complete stop prior to entering the operational safety zone or at a distance on no less than five metres from the aircraft. • All equipment must be driven at a “Walking pace” when operating within the operational safety buffer zone. • Drivers must also be aware of safety distances when driving in the vicinity of parked aircraft: o - 5m clear from the wing tip of parked aircraft. o - 15m clear of aircraft which are being refuelled. • Drivers must not start their vehicles when within 15m of another vehicle which is engaged in the refuelling of an aircraft. • Vehicles must not be driven over any hose or bonding cable laid on the ground by fuelling agents during aircraft refuelling. • Vehicles and persons must remain: o - 2.5m radius clear from around the aircraft fuel tank vents. o - 8m clear in front of an operating aircraft engine. o - 55m clear behind an aircraft with engine idling. • Vehicles must not be driven or parked under aircraft or aircraft wings, unless operationally required to do so. • Equipment and vehicles requiring to back up to or from an aircraft during the servicing of that aircraft, must be directed by a marshaller. All drivers must adhere strictly to this requirement. • A minimum safety distance of at least 200mts must be maintained behind an aircraft taxiing under their own power. - 19 -
