Overview

EN 280-2:2022 - Mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs) specifies additional safety requirements for MEWPs of Type 1, Group B that are fitted with a load lifting appliance (fixed attachment points or hoists/jibs). Published by CEN, this harmonized standard is intended to be used in conjunction with EN 280-1:2022 and supports conformity with the Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC). EN 280-2:2022 addresses hazards, hazardous situations and events related to lifting suspended loads from the work platform or extending lifting structure when used as intended or under reasonably foreseeable misuse. Significant hazards are listed in Annex A.

This standard does NOT cover:

• Using a MEWP to lift people as a suspended load
• Lifting suspended loads from a control position off the work platform
• Requirements for lifting accessories (slings, hooks)
• General materials-handling as performed by cranes
• MEWPs meeting enhanced stability/overload clauses of EN 280-1:2022
• MEWPs other than Type 1 Group B

Key Topics and Technical Requirements

• Hoist & attachment design: Power hoists follow EN 14492-2:2019; rope drums, pulleys and guides per that standard.
• Speed limits: Hoist lifting speed limited (≤ 0.25 m/s) and lowering speed ≤ 1.5× lifting speed and not to exceed platform lowering speed.
• Interlocks & controls: Interlock to prevent platform movement during hoisting (minimum Performance Level c, PL c). Emergency stop per EN ISO 13850 and additional ground-accessible emergency control must be provided.
• Overload & stability protection: Rated capacity limiter and safety functions to avoid overturning or exceeding structural stresses (minimum PL c). Stability must be verified for combined loads (platform occupants + hoist load), dynamic hoist effects (apply EN 13001-2 HC1 dynamic factor), wind loads and loss/snagging scenarios.
• Structural calculations & verification: Forces from hoist loads must be included in structural and stability calculations (see EN 280-1:2022). Wind and dynamic factors are specified.
• Safety of hydraulic and electrical systems: Hydraulic components and hoses, cylinders and electrical equipment must comply with EN 280-1:2022 and EN 60204-32:2008. Means to lower load in case of power loss required.
• Collision avoidance: Measures to prevent collisions between suspended loads and platform occupants or MEWP structure (reduced movement speed, platform positioning limits).

Applications

EN 280-2:2022 is used to design, validate and certify MEWPs that incorporate load-lifting appliances intended for suspended loads handled by personnel on the platform. Typical applications include maintenance, installation and access tasks where tools or small loads are raised/lowered from the platform rather than general crane work.

Who should use this standard

• MEWP manufacturers and OEMs integrating hoists or jibs
• Design and structural engineers performing stability and load calculations
• Safety managers, conformity assessors and certification bodies
• Rental companies and fleet operators specifying compliant equipment
• Test laboratories and inspection authorities

This document is a harmonized standard to provide one means for Mobile Elevating Work Platforms
(MEWPs) of Type 1, equipped with a load lifting appliance and designed for lifting suspended loads, to
conform to the essential health and safety requirements of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
This document is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100:2010.
When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in type A or B
standards, the provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of the other
standards, for machines that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C
standard.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards are covered are indicated in the scope of this
document.
1 Scope
This document, which is to be used in conjunction with EN 280-1:2022, specifies the additional safety
requirements for MEWPs of Type 1 Group B equipped with a load lifting appliance. The load-lifting
appliance is designed for lifting suspended loads only as part of the task being carried out by personnel
from the work platform. This document deals with the additional hazards, hazardous situations and
events relevant to load lifting appliances either on the extending lifting structure or on the work platform,
when the MEWP and load lifting appliance are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which
are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer of the MEWP. The significant hazards covered by this
document are listed in Annex A.
This document does not cover the following:
a) the use of a MEWP for lifting persons as a suspended load;
b) the use of a MEWP for lifting suspended loads from a control position other than the work platform;
c) requirements for lifting accessories;
d) lifting or lowering of suspended loads for general materials handling as carried out by a crane;
e) MEWPs compliant with EN 280-1:2022, 4.4.1.5 and/or 4.4.1.6 (enhanced stability and overload
criteria);
f) MEWPS others than Type1 Group B.
Load lifting appliance can be:
g) fixed load attachment points on the work platform or on the extending lifting structure where the
load can be positioned in reach of the personnel on the platform;
h) lifting equipment for lifting or lowering the load with a stationary platform. The equipment is

4.1 Fixed load-lifting attachment
4.1.1 The load-lifting attachment shall be secured so as to prevent unintentional loosening of the lifting
accessories.
4.1.2 The load shall be suspended freely and guided by the movements of the extending structure of
the MEWP. The hoist medium shall not change length while moving the extending structure.
4.2 Hoist appliance (hoists with/without jibs)
4.2.1 Power-operated hoists shall be designed according to EN 14492-2:2019.
4.2.2 Rope drums, rope pulleys and guides shall be designed according to EN 14492-2:2019.
Trapping and shearing points between moving parts which are within reach of persons (see
EN ISO 13857:2019) on the platform or standing adjacent to the MEWP at ground level shall be avoided
by providing safe clearances in accordance with EN ISO 13854:2019 or guarding.
4.2.3 The hoist lifting speed shall not exceed the work platform lifting speed by boom movement and
not exceed 0,25 m/s. The hoist lowering speed shall not be more than 1,5 times of the hoist lifting speed
and in no case exceed the lowering speed of the work platform.
4.2.4 Manual boom extensions shall have end stops and mechanical locks for the retracted, extended
and working positions.
4.2.5 An interlock shall prevent movements of the MEWP whilst lifting or lowering the load with the
lifting equipment. This interlocking device shall comply with EN 280-1:2022, 4.11 and meet a minimum
Performance Level c. This requirement does not apply for human powered hoists.
4.2.6 Means to reduce the risk of collision between the suspended load and platform occupants due to
the movement of the extending structure and the platform shall be provided.
Aspects to be considered include:
a) a reduced speed of the extending structure and platform;
b) platform position during the lifting, lowering and other movements of the load.
It shall not be possible to position the work platform below the load attachment point. Collisions between
the suspended load and structural parts of the MEWP shall be avoided.
4.2.7 The hydraulic equipment shall comply with EN 280-1:2022, 4.9. Hydraulic hoses in the vicinity of
the operators shall not pose a hazard to them (e.g. due to leakage of hot or pressurized liquids).
4.2.8 Hydraulic cylinders shall comply with EN 280-1:2022, 4.10.
4.2.9 The electrical equipment shall comply with EN 280-1:2022, 4.8 and EN 60204-32:2008.

emergency stop according to EN ISO 13850:2015. All emergency stop devices (on the MEWP and on the
load lifting appliance) shall stop all movements of the MEWP and the load lifting appliance.
4.2.11 It shall be possible to activate power-operated lifting equipment from an additional position
easily accessible from the ground as an overriding emergency control function. The additional control
position shall comply with EN 280-1:2022, 4.7.4.

4.3 Structural and stability calculations
The load lifting appliance and its interface with the MEWP shall comply with EN 280-1:2022, 4.2.5.2 and
4.2.5.3. The force from the hoist load shall be considered when designing the MEWP (see EN 280-1:2022,
4.2.3.5). To consider dynamic effect of hoisting, the hoist load shall be multiplied by a dynamic factor in
accordance with EN 13001-2:2021, 4.2.2.2, using hoisting class HC1 (see Table 1).
Wind forces on the hoist load shall be calculated in accordance with EN 13001-2:2021, 4.2.3.1.
