  1. Tips for Improving Vehicle Loading Crane Safety at Job Site

  2. Ensure that only appropriately qualified personnel are assigned to your lifts • Modern Vehicle Loading Craneare incredibly complex machines that can generate a massive lifting force in a compact, agile package. In the hands of a qualified, experienced operator, a mobile crane is exceptionally safe and efficient, but it’s important to recognize and respect the fact that this is a specialized piece of equipment. • Keep your job site safe and code-compliant by ensuring that experienced workers are assigned to your lifts.

  3. Ensure items being lifted are properly secured • Improper loading and lack of Vehicle Loading Crane Course training is the leading cause of crane-related accidents, injuries, and even fatalities. • Unsecured loads can expose your workers to serious hazards – even small items like bolts, tool boxes, and water coolers must be secured. • When working with a mobile crane, make sure your crew understands exactly how to secure each load. 

  4. Ensure you have a proper area for the crane to operate. • While mobile cranes are specifically designed to be agile and efficient in relatively small spaces, it’s important to allow enough clearance for both the outriggers and the boom swing. • The actual working ‘footprint’ of your crane will vary depending on the size of the unit, the length of the boom, and the height of the lift. • While it’s true that mobile cranes can be set up and safely operated in a fraction of the space needed for static tower cranes, when it comes to clearance, more is always safer. 

  5. Ensure you have allotted enough time for the lift to avoid rushing • When you’re facing tight deadlines of a work site, you might be tempted to skip some safety protocols, exceed maximum load weights, or take other time-saving shortcuts. • It goes without saying that rushing while working with heavy equipment is never a good idea – in fact, it’s a recipe for disaster. • A lack of attention to detail is one of the most common causes of work site injuries and accidents,
