Hi Gary,
CAT uses ladders or a scissor lift much to the chagrin of our insurance carrier. Consequently we are looking into a ceiling mounted tether track system.

Gary,

We use CAI safety overhead harness system for inspection of our rooftop equipment.

We go up through the roof hatch using a step ladder. We do not presently have a tie off system but we will in the new building.

How does anyone get onto the bus roof to do their inspection safely? Ladder, scissor lift, Genie or what? Are you using any harness or tie off system? Looking for answers.
