Overhead / Workshop Crane including Rigging & Slinging
Playing an essential role in many production and workshop enviroments, overhead cranes come in many different guises. Any load heavy enough to warrant the use of mechanical lifting equipment has the potential to cause serious harm if the load is allowed to swing violently or escapes from its slinging arrangement.
Known Operating Problems
- Uncontrolled loads being allowed to swing violently and colliding with buildings, machinery, stock or pedestrians.
- Incorrectly secured loads falling from their slinging arrangements with obvious consequences.
- Lack of slinging knowledge resulting in incorrect assumptions regarding the strength of lifting tackle when used in a variety of ways causing equipment to be overloaded and ulimately fail.

Course Outline
Who Should Attend.
This course is aimed at those who have experience operating the lifting equipment but have never attended a formal course. Many operators are "self taught" or shown "how to" by colleagues so whilst they have a limited ability with the equipment, they lack any theoretical knowledge and appreciation of the dangers involved. They will typically also have many, potentially dangerous bad habits.
