Prior to commencement of PORTABOOM®
setup, an assessment of overhead hazards
must be conducted.

If overhead hazards have been identified
where a PORTABOOM® needs to be
positioned, the Site Traffic Management

PORTABOOM® Operator may be able to
reposition the PORTABOOM® in order to
remove the overhead hazard.
If a new position has been identified, ensure

As per steps 2 and 3, identify potential
hazards prior to positioning PORTABOOM®
i.e. Look for low lying power lines, tree
branches, street lights, road signage which
the PORTABOOM® Boom Arm may come in
contact with in its setup and operation.
(PORTABOOM® Boom Arm raised)
Ensure PORTABOOM® is setup with
PORTABOOM® Boom Arm raised after
identifying a position clear of all hazards

requirement due to loose surface conditions,
uneven surfaces and/or restricted spaces to
move the PORTABOOM® Tower to a location
that would be more suitable for operation (i.e.
a position that would be more level).
Ensure any changes are updated on the On-
site Record and TMD.
