Turner construction safety requirment for driving lulls
Generated on: May 27, 2025

While I don't have specific Turner Construction safety requirements for driving Lulls, here's some general guidance based on the provided documents and standard safety practices:

  1. Inspection and Maintenance: Before operating a Lull, a competent worker should inspect it for defects and unsafe conditions [1]. This inspection should follow the manufacturer's specifications [2]. Any identified defects must be repaired before operation 1, 4. Maintain records of inspections and maintenance at the worksite 4, 11.

  2. Safe Operation:

  • Ensure that the movement of the Lull does not endanger any worker [3].
  • Operators must be trained and competent to operate the equipment safely.
  • Never allow workers to remain within the range of moving loads or equipment parts [2].
  • If a worker could be caught between a moving part and another object, restrict entry to the area or ensure a clearance distance of at least 600mm [2].
  1. Pedestrian Safety: If reasonably practicable, designate walkways to separate pedestrian traffic from Lull operating areas 1, 10. If designated walkways are not feasible, implement safe work procedures to protect workers in these areas 1, 10.

  2. Equipment Requirements:

  • Ensure the Lull has a functioning horn or audible warning device [1].
  • If the operator's view is obstructed, the Lull should have an automatic audible warning device that activates when moving in that direction, or a warning device appropriate to the worksite hazards [4].
  • Alternatively, implement procedures such as visual inspections of the area, traffic control systems, or directions from a designated signaller [5].
  • Ensure that the Lull is equipped with lights if operated in darkness or conditions of poor visibility 11, 16.
  1. Load Safety: If the Lull is used to move a load, ensure it conforms to the manufacturer's weight, height, and other limits [6].

  2. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): If the Lull is fitted with roll-over protective structures, ensure that seatbelts or other restraining devices are used by the operator and any other worker in or on the equipment [7].

  3. General Safety: Keep the work site clean and free of slip and trip hazards [8]. Provide sufficient lighting to enable work to be done safely 5, 19.

Remember that these are general guidelines, and it's essential to consult the Lull's operator manual and any specific Turner Construction safety protocols for detailed instructions and requirements.


Important Safety Note:

Always verify safety information with your organization's specific guidelines and local regulations.
