Wow, awesome knowledge and info!

The initial post was in reference to Pro-Tech Model # WB08D, which is not on the website.

That is correct, a Telehandler is not an aerial work platform. The Pro-Tech Work Box # WB08D was designed as a trash box, but we found guys using it for men, so we redesigned it so that it meets the same standards as say JLG's Work Platform Attachment that they make. This was to cover guys butts in the field and to add more versatility to the telehandler.

We did not envison our Work Box being used a primary work platform.

I would love to learn more about the state of MI's take on the B56.6 standards...Give me a call at the office sometime, my name is Chris.
