What safety precautions should be taken when operating a crane?

Crane operation must strictly adhere to safety regulations, with core considerations including equipment inspection, standardized operation, environmental assessment, and personnel protection. The following provides detailed analysis and professional advice to assist you in efficiently and safely completing lifting operations: 
1. Equipment inspection and maintenance 
1. Before daily operation, it is necessary to inspect: the wear of the steel wire rope (broken wire rate ≤10%), the effectiveness of the hook safety device, and the sensitivity of the braking system. The hydraulic system must be free of leakage, and the torque of each connecting bolt must meet the standard value. It is recommended to equip safety devices such as torque limiters and height limiters. The crane we provide comes standard with a dual braking system, and the anti-sway technology can reduce the risk of accidents by 30%. 
II. Key points of operational norms 
- Load management: Overloading is strictly prohibited. It is recommended to use an electronic weighing system for real-time monitoring. When lifting, slow acceleration is required to maintain a stable load, and a pause should be taken at a height of 0.5 meters above the ground to verify the weight. 
- Signal communication: A dedicated signaler must be appointed to uniformly use hand signals or intercom systems. We recommend a remote control operation system equipped with sound and light alarm devices to effectively eliminate the hidden dangers of visual blind spots. 
III. Control of work environment 
1. Foundation bearing capacity: The ground pressure should be above 150kPa, and steel plates should be laid on soft ground. A warning area should be set up within the working radius, and operations should be stopped immediately when the wind speed exceeds level 6 (10.8m/s). 
2. Electricity safety: When working near high-voltage lines, a safety distance of 1.5 times the height of the tower must be maintained. Our equipment is equipped with an optional insulated boom, which effectively prevents high-voltage arc accidents. 
IV. Personal Protection System 
Operators must hold a special equipment operation certificate and wear anti-smashing shoes and a safety helmet. We provide a supporting shockproof cab that meets the ISO 10262 impact resistance standard, equipped with an emergency lowering device to safely unload the load in case of sudden power failure.
