Hiab Crane Safety Information

Hiab General Operation

• Operator should be positioned on the opposite side of the truck to that which the load will be lifted or lowered.
• Operator should have a clear view of the area where the load will be lifted from or lowered onto.
  Ensure:
• That loads will not become snagged which may cause equipment failure. This may require an observer or guide ropes to be attached. Example Loading/unloading pipes.

Stabilising the Crane Truck

• Stabilisers MUST be lowered and on firm footing.
  NOTE: The truck wheel should not be lifted off the ground as they supply the main stability.
  Ensure:
• Parking brake is applied.
• That the truck wheels are chocked if the ground slopes.
• It is recommended that the ground should not slope more than 5 degrees.
