During a crane inspection, the following must be inspected:
-
Clearance for swing radius - Ensuring there is adequate clearance for the swing radius is crucial for safe operation.
-
Slings - Inspecting slings is important to ensure they are not damaged and are capable of safely lifting loads.
-
Load capacity - This is critical to ensure the crane is not overloaded, which can lead to failure or accidents.
-
Wire rope wear and sheaves - Inspecting wire ropes for wear and checking the condition of sheaves (pulleys) is essential for safety and proper crane function.
All of the options listed must be inspected during a crane inspection.
