Rod,
In five minutes I looked at the section in EM 385-1-1 (Dated 05 Jul 11), which covered the use of "Elevating Work Platforms/Scissor Lifts", and it sure sounds as though they're allowed, with certain provisions for anchorage, restraint for the workers, and warning for workers at the floor level. The sections which appeared applicable to me were 21.J.04, 21.J.05, and 21.K, which were on pages 21-22 and 21-23. In short, Rod, make the individual insisting this can't be done show you specifically what they're using to support that conclusion.
    My two favorite words "prove it."
good luck, pal,
