Vehicle-Mounted Elevating and Rotating Work Platforms, 2017 Edition, is the second part of three parts of 29 CFR OSHA Part 1910 Subpart F - Section 1910.66 Powered Platforms for Building Maintenance, (Scaffolds) Section 1910.67 - Vehicle mounted elevating and rotating work platforms, and Section 1910.68 Manlifts, the continuous belt personnel elevator (Paternoster Type elevators) used in construction and mining industries. The Textbook/examples/workbook study guide is published in 8 -inch by 11 -inch workbook size soft cover, fastback bound form. We have included within the textbook manual a current, direct copy of our reference document as a go anywhere reference source document. The purpose of the work is to provide a clear language document in example/workbook format that is subject specific rather than being buried in a mass of very technical legal termonology. The 29 CFR OSHA document we use for our reference is the Government Publishing Office (GPO) of .gov. The 29 e-CFR edition is always a work in progress, thus not becoming law untill published reviewed and published in the Congressional Record. This processis time consuming and may, in spite of countless hours of proof reading may continue to include typographic and spelling errors. However, and before becoming a critic of our government publkshing efforts - try writing millions of pages of text and tens of millions of words dailym without misspelled words or puncuation errors.
