The overhead crane has been built to be used doing repetitive hoisting activities. This particular type of crane could be utilized in various capacities. They can be utilized for specialized hoisting tasks like for instance removing or installing major plant machines.

To safely utilize an overhead crane, staff have to employ safe rigging practices. This requires both knowledge and practice. The load should be rigged properly to be able to ensure its stability when raised. Before beginning a hoisting task, it should be determined that the crane is suitable for the job, with appropriate travel, lift and capacity. The crane should be subjected to a thorough visual and physical inspection before use. The capacity of all machines, including the slings, hardware and rope, must never go over load weight capacities.

Prior to using the rigger needs to know which sling is right for every lift and should inspect the rigging gear and hardware. The communications that are utilized with the crane operator have to be concise and clear. A signaler needs to be designated for the role and signals have to be agreed upon. The crane operator should follow directions just from the chosen individual. If a wired or remote controller is being utilized, the operator must be trained in all its functions.

To be able to ensure the safety of workers, a warning needs to be issued and the path of the load should be cleared of all hazards before the lift begins. Individuals must not be allowed to walk below the lift loads. The crane hoist needs to be centered over the load prior to hoisting in order to prevent swinging. The safety catch needs to be closed immediately after sliding the sling fully onto the hoisting hook. Sling legs that are not used must be secured so they do not drag. Never leave loose materials on a load being lifted. Watch that fingers and hands are clear when slack is taken out of a sling. Step clear of the danger zone before the lift is carried out.
