Shift Safety Practices

For the first lift of a working shift and the first lift of each shift where the load is greater than 50% of the maximum lifting capacity, the load must be raised a short distance to test the system before continuing the operation.

At the end of a working shift the Sidelifter should be left in a safe condition in a designated parking area and reasonable precautions taken against unauthorized operation. Safe Condition is defined as power supply turned off and with cranes fully stowed. If laden, the container/s should be properly loaded onto the twistlocks, not suspended in any way.
