CRANE (continued)
! CAUTION
Make sure that the load lifted does not exceed the load chart ratings. The crane load
chart must be constantly referred to, especially in cases where the load is to be moved
farther away from the crane's pivot point. Overloading can lead to serious damage to
the crane.
5.
Determine the weight of the item to be lifted, the load radius (distance from the center of the crane's rotation to the center
of the load) at the beginning of the lift, and the most extreme load radius expected during the lift. Consult the load chart
to ensure that the load does not exceed the crane's capacity at any point during the lift.
6.
Ensure that all unnecessary personnel are clear of the crane's working area.
