JUMP TO FULL CODE CHAPTER
The equipment must not be operated in excess of its rated capacity.
The operator must not be required to operate the equipment in a manner that would violate paragraph (o)(1) of this section.
The operator must verify that the load is within the rated capacity of the equipment by at least one of the following methods:
The weight of the load must be determined from a source recognized by the industry (such as the load's manufacturer), or by a calculation method recognized by the industry (such as calculating a steel beam from measured dimensions and a known per foot weight), or by other equally reliable means. In addition, when requested by the operator, this information must be provided to the operator prior to the lift; or
The operator must begin hoisting the load to determine, using a load weighing device, load moment indicator, rated capacity indicator, or rated capacity limiter, if it exceeds 75 percent of the maximum rated capacity at the longest radius that will be used during the lift operation. If it does, the operator must not proceed with the lift until he/she verifies the weight of the load in accordance with paragraph (o)(3)(i) of this section.
