Steps
Confirm the current governing standard is ANSI/SAIA A92.2-2021 (Vehicle-Mounted Elevating and Rotating Aerial Devices), maintained by SAIA as ANSI's A92 secretariat, covering design, testing, inspection, maintenance, training, and operation.
Verify operator training and documented authorization requirements under A92.2 before assigning a crew member to run a bucket truck, in addition to OSHA's general 1910.67 vehicle-mounted platform rules.
Track the major structural inspection requirement introduced in the standard's recent revision cycle — required after the unit's first 15 years of service and every 10 years thereafter (or per manufacturer direction).
Confirm daily/pre-use inspection and periodic (e.g., annual) inspection documentation is being kept, since A92.2 provisions are referenced by OSHA in enforcement of vehicle-mounted platform requirements.
Cross-check equipment load ratings and manufacturer manual requirements alongside A92.2, since the standard works together with, not instead of, OSHA 1910.67.
Known gotchas
A92.2 compliance and OSHA 1910.67 compliance are related but not identical — meeting one does not automatically certify compliance with the other; check both.
The 15-year/10-year major structural inspection interval runs from the unit's date of manufacture, not the fleet's date of purchase — check the original in-service date.
