Crane Safety Training Moose Jaw - Both crane operator as well as their employers must be aware of all the possible problems related to the use of an overhead crane. All across North America, there is legislation which provides rules for the safe inspection, maintenance and operation of lifting equipment. Crane Safety courses help owners and managers of cranes accredit their operators in accordance with provincial legislation.
We have designed several training courses to be able to equip operators with all the skills and knowledge considered necessary to be able to make crane lifting easier and safer. Training the operator helps to lengthen the crane's life span by guaranteeing crane's safe operation and high performance.
Articulated cranes under 16,000 lbs. capacity could only be operated by operators who are accredited. Operators have to be knowledgeable about the operational characteristics and features of the machinery. Before use, a pre-operational machine check should be done. There is a legal requirement to do a pre-operational inspection as well as an inspection of the overhead conditions and work-site ground.
The guidelines provided in the manufacturer manual gives information on maintenance, inspection, and loading and unloading operations. According to legislation, annual and daily inspections are mandatory. Operators are needed to maintain an up-to-date logbook in nearly all places. They may be needed to validate equipment warranties.
Adding remote control devices to the cranes is usually suggested. Remote control improves safety by allowing the operator an easier option for handling the crane.
Prioritizing crane safety helps a company's bottom line. Businesses which follow safe machine practices usually enjoy greater cost savings compared to those which don't. The chance of personal injury and machine damage is greatly reduced if an operator who is well-trained is handling the crane. Safety conscious drivers are more productive leading to reduced times required for unloading and loading.
