Defines requirements for an LLWP with one working platform with side protection, for use by one person, with a maximum working platform height not greater than 2.5 m. The maximum working load of the LLWP is 150 kg.

This British Standard specifies requirements for an LLWP with one working platform with side protection, for use by one person, with a maximum working platform height not greater than 2.5 m. The maximum working load of the LLWP is 150 kg. In particular, this British Standard specifies requirements for materials, design loads, dimensions, strength and stability tests, marking and instruction manuals. This British Standard does not cover: mobile access and working towers with a height from 2.5 m to 12.0 m (indoors) and from 2.5 m to 8.0 m (outdoors), in accordance with BS EN 1004; prefabricated tower scaffolds, in accordance with BS EN 1139-6; mobile elevating work platforms, in accordance with BS EN 280; standing step ladders with platforms and mobile ladders with platforms, conforming to BS EN 131 (all parts); aluminium standing step ladders with platforms, folding trestles and lightweight stagings, in accordance with BS 2037; and timber trestles and lightweight stagings, in accordance with BS 1129.
