What category does a self-propelled boom lift belong to?

A self-propelled boom lift falls under the category of 3b equipment. This classification typically includes aerial work platforms, specifically designed to elevate personnel to varied heights. The categorization is based on certain characteristics, such as the type of controls, the method of propulsion, and the ability to traverse rough terrain.

In the context of aerial lifts, category 3b specifically refers to self-propelled boom lifts that can be operated from the platform and have the capability to extend horizontally and vertically. They are equipped with a boom that can elevate workers while allowing for workplace maneuverability at height. This makes them distinct from other categories that may include equipment with different operational features or restrictions.

The other categories, while also containing aerial lifts, represent different types of machines and usage conditions. Understanding the unique features and applications of a self-propelled boom lift is essential for operators and is a crucial aspect of safety training and licensing.
