This 15-point MEWP inspection checklist helps operators and supervisors confirm a mobile elevating work platform is safe before use. It covers documentation (operator manual, six‑month thorough examination certificate), functional checks for emergency stops and controls, drive functions and lower-control overrides, indicator lights and motion alarms, and all powered movements. It includes verification of guards and decals, plus the security of platform guardrails, gate latches, and harness anchor points. A workplace assessment section reviews ground conditions, surrounding hazards, and overhead obstructions. The checklist concludes with operator signature and date/time for record keeping.
