Incorrect crane loading procedures due to untrained personnel can cause the truck
to fall. There is a risk of injury to personnel and a risk of material damage to the
truck.

Loading must only be performed by specialist personnel trained for this purpose.
The specialist personnel must be instructed in securing loads on road vehicles and
handling load securing devices. In each case correct measurements must be
taken and appropriate safety measures applied.
