I will preface this by saying I work for Pro-Tech.

I am not trying to advertise against board rules, but I will say the Pro-Tech Work Box meets ANSI/ITSDF B56.6-2005, Section 8.24

Section 8.24 explains the requirements for using a work platform on a telehandler. A lot of guys say OSHA doesn't approve using a work platform on a Telehandler. That is absolutely false! There is a whole standard written which governs such use. OSHA will have no problem with a work platform on a telehandler provided it meets ANSI/ITSDF B56.6-2005, Section 8.24.

The other thing you need to make sure is that your operator is familiar with and follows B56.6, Section 5.15, "Elevating Personnel".

Fact of the week
The word "robotics" was coined by Russian-born American science-fiction writer Isaac Asimov who first used the word in 1942 in his short story 'Runabout'. He characterised robots as helpful servants and as "a better, cleaner race."
