Raise & Lower (4–6 min): Haul casualty up 150mm to slacken deployed shock-lanyard, release primary lanyard, and smoothly lower casualty to ground/staging level via controlled friction descender. |
| Scenario B: Operative Fallen Into FASET Class A1 Safety Net | Standby Articulated / Scissor MEWP (Positioned in Bay Below) & Debris/Net Cutting Knife |
1. Stabilise: Instruct all roof operatives to cease work above the affected bay immediately. 2. Position MEWP: Competent IPAF ground rescue operator manoeuvres the standby MEWP directly beneath the deflected safety net. 3. Platform Transfer: Raise MEWP platform smoothly until platform floor supports casualty's weight inside the net. 4. Release & Lower: Unclip or cut net mesh if entangled, transfer casualty onto MEWP deck with First Aider, and lower to ground level. |
| Scenario C: MEWP Breakdown or Operator Incapacitation at Height | MEWP Ground-Level Emergency Auxiliary Lowering Valve & Red Override Control Panel |
1. Ground Intervention: Designated IPAF-trained ground rescue person proceeds immediately to the base chassis of the MEWP. 2. Auxiliary Power: Switch key selector from Basket to Ground Control; activate auxiliary hydraulic pump/emergency descent valve. 3.

Evacuation: Carry down wide Haki scaffold stair tower OR lower via telehandler/crane rescue frame under Slinger/Signaller control. |
