What should crane operators know about daily inspections?
Daily inspections are mandatory pre-operation safety checks covering mechanical systems, controls, and structural components to identify defects before they cause accidents.
Daily crane inspections must be performed by qualified operators before each shift or when equipment changes hands. The inspection covers critical safety systems including brakes, clutches, warning devices, load blocks, wire rope condition, and hydraulic systems. Operators must check for proper fluid levels, unusual noises, damaged components, and verify all safety devices function correctly.
Remember: "MCS Daily" - Mechanical, Controls, Structural checks Daily before operation
