Work process for a safe lift
Step by step from planning lift to load standing safely in place
Use this procedure at each lift. The calm, planned lift is the safe lift.
§1. Plan
- 01Find the weight and centre of gravity of the load
- 02Determine range and check against crane load curve
- 03Plan the lifting path — are there obstacles, people or other hazards in the way
§2. Catch
- 01Choose lifting gear with sufficient load capacity
- 02Check slings, chains and shackles for damage.
- 03Attach the load so it hangs straight and cannot slip
§3. Lift
- 01PLACEHOLDER_98
- 02Keep everyone away from the area below and around the load
- 03Move slowly without sudden jerks so the load does not swing
§4. Sæt af

- 02Release the thing safely and inspect it
- 03Confirm that the load is secure before the crane moves on
