Operation
General
•
Never place chain link on tip of hook to lift load.
•
Close hook throat before lifting load.
•
Never use a sling bar or anything larger than the hook throat that could prevent hook latch from
closing. This prevents damage to material being hoisted and helps prevent injury to personnel.
•
No unqualified or unauthorized person shall be allowed to operate the loader/driver.
•
Always comply with load chart capacities. Weight of heavy load can create enough tipping momentum
to overturn drilling unit.
•
Observe operating area obstructions or power lines that might be a hazard.
•
Keep objects and personnel clear of driver/loader path during operation.
•
Do not take your eyes off a moving load. Always look in the direction load is moving.
Riding on boom or load will result in death or serious
injury. No riders. Keep off.
