    Your question is very vague.

    Is this homework? Please be more specific or you won't get an answer here either.

    That all depends on the BOARD OF LABOUR in your particular area. You are on an international site. So my answer from Ontario would be NO unless you are 18 or over; a certain height; a certain weight; and trained to manipulate that equipment, which you don't say what kind of equipment that is. No one in ONTARIO would be allowed to hire anyone with certain restrictions.

    As WG said, the reason you didn't get answers is because your question is too vague. I know some 15 and 16 yr olds who would be physically capable of doing so. So the next question is how well were they trained? If trained properly and physically fit enough then it would be safe.

    But most areas have child labor laws and it might not be legal for them to work at all let alone operate such equipment.
