1. United Electrical & Instrumentation Safety Task Evaluation Process CRANE OPERATION ANALYSIS THE INFINITY GROUP

2. Problem Large Lifts – are always well organized and equipped managed with a detailed, formal “Lift Plan” Resulting in no problems Everyday, Routine Crane Operations – cause most of our heartaches due to lack of adequate planning.

3. Mission To have those employees involved in the hoisting operation to analyze the task, plan the lift, and complete the hazard assessment card as a group to establish good communications and assure job scope understanding.

4. Expectation To analyze all lifts Choose wire rope slings where possible rather than fiber or chain Mechanical devices should not be used in a load bearing leg When “fitting the load”, load may transfer CG may shift Operators and signalmen must maintain continuous and undivided communication

5. Safety Task Evaluation Process CRANE OPERATION ANALYSIS "our plan for a safe job" Crane: Date: Time: Crane has been inspected/ safe condition:.  Yes  No Job Location: Job Description: The weight of the load is: The swing radius of the lift is: Net crane capacity at this radius is: Is operator qualified to operate this crane?  Yes  No Is operator’s certification card current?  Yes  No Critical lift permit required for this lift?  Yes  No Crane level/outriggers fully extended?  Yes  No Is the rigger qualified for this task?  Yes  No Is sling/hardware in safe condition?  Yes  No Sling sizing/hookup reviewed?  Yes  No Do sharp edges have softeners?  Yes  No Tag lines needed to help control load?  Yes  No Center of gravity of load located?  Yes  No EMERGENCY INFORMATION What is the wind direction? Reviewed emergency alarms/phone numbers  Yes Escape route(s): Location of eyebath/shower station: Our evacuation assembly point is: Operator Signature: Rigger Signature: Signalman Signature: Foreman Signature:
