9 INSTRUCTIONS FOR CRANE OPERATORS
These instructions must be followed.
Check that the radio transmitter operates on the crane that you are going to operate (for
instance give a signal). Check all functions of the radio transmitter.
Check that no unauthorized person is on or near the crane when you start to operate it. Any
blocking device at the entry of the crane should be closed.
Check the position of the symbols for operating direction (crane-trolley-travel).
At the beginning of each shift the crane operator is to test all brakes, limit switches and
emergency stop functions as well as the STOP button on the transmitter.
The crane operator should when operating the crane stand at a suitable distance from the crane
hoist to have adequate overview of the operation.
It is prohibited to move the crane load over oneself or coworkers.
Signal to warn others.
Avoid driving into end stops since equipment and goods can be damaged.
Check your own free passageway in order to avoid tripping over material on the ground when
you operate the crane. Keep the workplace in good order.
If you loose control of the crane movements, release the push buttons to obtain the zero
position to stop the crane. If the crane still does not stop, actuate the STOP function.
Find out where the crane’s main power disconnect is, to be able to quickly switch o if
required.
Never hand over the transmitter to anyone who has not undergone training in radio-control
crane operation.
After completed operation you should always switch the transmitter o with STOP. Note! Do
not put the transmitter aside without switching the transmitter o with STOP.
The main contactor of the crane is to be switched o after the end of working hours. The
transmitter is then to be kept inaccessible to unauthorized persons.
In case of faults or breakdowns in the radio control equipment the crane should permit
operation from the cab or with suspended operating gear. In such case rst turn the switch
from radio operation to manual operation. Make certain how this switch-over is to be made
before you start operating the crane.
Make sure that the receiver can not be activated when you service
the transmitter.
When working on the crane ensure that all radio transmitters and other
controls are locked or otherwise under supervision.
ALWAYS REPORT DEFECTS TO THE WORKPLACE MANAGEMENT.
