videos | at work | information | view | construction
Columbus McKinnon Training Department presents a walk-through of a proper pre-lift inspection of rigging equipment. This quick and easy routine is what every operator should do before they lift or move a load using rigging equipment. From proper assessment of the load weight and securing the work area to visually inspecting the rigging equipment for damage, this inspection routine will help make your lifting application safer.

Nice video...everything you say is absolutely correct. Unfortunately, in this workaday world, most workers will pay attention to less than five percent of what was said. Kinda sad, because about 80 percent of worker accidents are caused by that worker...

pre- lift Rigging Inspection

The angle that the hooks are pulling off the shackles is wrong. I know this is unavoidable due to where the holes are made, but it should be mentioned.
You're pulling the shackle from 1 side, creating a single shear pin point of pressure. Shackles are designed to lift to double shear, where the load is evenly balanced across the middle of the pin, but a lot of people don't know that and think it doesn't make any difference if the shackle is in line or not. -
Great informative video, it will save lives if procedure is followed.
