- 3. The CraneOperator is responsible for the safe operation of the crane and he must be certified to drive the specific model of crane being used The Crane Operator is responsible for ensuring that all safety devices fitted are operational. The Crane Operator must ensure clear and agreed communication methods with the banksman before the lift commences. The Crane Operator must ensure that the Crane and ANY lifting equipment or accessories have been inspected and are fit for use
- 4. Contact withpower lines Overloading Ground Conditions Mechanical failures Structural Failure
- 5. Instability – unsecuredload, load capacity exceeded, or ground not level or too soft Lack of communication - the point of operation is a distance from the crane operator or not in full view of the operator Lack of training Inadequate maintenance or inspection
- 7. Can you seeanything unsafe here?
- 10.
- 12. Level thecrane and ensure support surface is firm and able to support the load Contact power line owners and determine precautions. Know the location and voltage of overhead power lines. Know the basic crane capacities, limitations, and job site restrictions, such as the location of power lines, unstable soil, or high winds. Make other personnel aware of hoisting activities. Barricade areas within swing radius. Ensure proper maintenance and inspections. Determine safe areas to store materials and place machinery.
- 13. Review thesite for possible hazards: ◦ Overhead lines ◦ Unstable soil ◦ High wind conditions ◦ Other work activities in the area
- 14. Characteristics ofthe load: ◦ Hazardous or toxic materials ◦ Weight ◦ Dimensions ◦ Center of gravity
- 15. Rigging sketchesand information: ◦ Lift points ◦ Methods of attachment ◦ Sling angles ◦ Load vectors
- 16. Rigging sketchesand information: ◦ Boom and swing angles ◦ Crane orientations ◦ Rated capacities ◦ Other factors affecting equipment operation
- 17. Operating procedures: ◦Step-by-step instructions ◦ Applicable rigging precautions ◦ Safety measures ◦ Emergency procedures
- 18. Always followthe manufacturer’s specifications & limitations When specifications are not available, they must be determined by a qualified engineer Rated load capacities, recommended operating speeds and special hazard warnings must be posted on equipment and within operator view Ensure that cabs contain a 5BC fire extinguisher
- 19. Cab windowsmust be free of defects Belts, gears and pulleys must be guarded from employee contact Keep employees clear of hoisted and suspended loads The swing radius of the crane must be barricaded to protect employees Use only ANSI prescribed hand signals and keep posted at the jobsite
- 20. Daily –by operator before each use Monthly – by a competent person (more mechanically oriented) Annually – by qualified or third party person Inspections must be written and kept on site!
- 21. Only peoplethat have trained are permitted to operate cranes
- 28. Before liftingcarefully inspect all rigging, slings, hooks, etc. Report any damage or defects to your supervisor right away.
- 32. Slinging isa means of attaching lifting accessories such as man made slings, shackles etc. to a load in preparation for its movement via a lifting appliance such as a crane. Before we sling a load it is imperative that we establish the following: Weight of the load and the effects of angles on the WLL Centre of Gravity Lifting Capacity Safe Working Load Lifting Operations Knowledge - Presentation V3_0 32
- 33. Riggers needto be aware of slinging angles as these dramatically affect the lifting capacity of slings A slinging angle is measured between one sling leg to the other Slinging Angle 33
- 34. Slinging isa means of attaching lifting accessories such as man made slings, shackles etc. to a load in preparation for its movement via a lifting appliance such as a crane. Before we sling a load it is imperative that we establish the following: Weight of the load and the effects of angles on the WLL Centre of Gravity Lifting Capacity Safe Working Load Lifting Operations Knowledge - Presentation V3_0 34
- 35. Be aware ofexisting underground utilities and backfill. D D x 1.5 Recommended Safe Work Practice: Affected Zone Working Near Excavations
- 36. Keep outfrom under suspended loads. Watch out for materials that could fall on you if hit by the moving load.
- 37. The stresses inthe legs of a sling increases as the angle between them increases. Using the human body and two buckets of water it is not difficult to demonstrate the effects of a lifting a load at narrow and wide angles 37
- 38. THE SWL LOADOF A PAIR OF SINGLE SLINGS DECREASES AS THE ANGLE BETWEEN THEM INCREASES AS SHOWN IN THE ABOVE DIAGRAM. NEVER EXCEED A SLINGING ANGLE OF 900! 38

- 43. Competent Person The competentperson must inspect all machinery and equipment prior to each use, and during use, to make sure it is in safe operating condition. If it needs fixing, take it out of service and don’t use it until it is fixed Broken Track

- 47. Stay clear frompower lines at least 10 feet Power Lines
- 48.
- 50. Guard Moving Parts Unguarded ChainDrive Guard moving parts such as gears or belts
- 51. Swing Radius Stay outof the swing radius of the crane – Make sure there are barrier guards showing swing radius
- 52. Operator Visibility Broken Window Makesure broken windows or other obstructions do not prevent the operator from seeing
- 53. Ladders Ladder Use ladders toget to the upper portion of the cab
- 54. Guardrails Runways and stepsneed to have guardrails, handholds and slip resistant surfaces
- 55. Boom Angle Indicator Aboom angle indicator must be on the crane
- 57. Supporting Surface Cranes mustbe on a firm supporting surface and level within 1 percent
- 60. The grooves mustbe smooth and free from surface defects which could cause rope damage Sheaves
- 62.
- 63. Conduct regular inspections of tiresfor excessive wear or damage Tire Inspections
