2.5 Transmitter Unit
Transmitter switches should never be mechanically blocked on or off. When not in use, the operator should
turn the transmitter off. A secure storage space should be provided for the transmitter unit, and the
transmitter unit should always be placed there when not in use. This precaution will help prevent
unauthorized people from operating the material handling equipment.
Spare transmitters should be stored in a secure storage space and only removed from the storage space
after the current transmitter in use has been turned off, taken out of the service area and secured.
2.6 Pre-Operation Test
At the start of each work shift, or when a new operator takes control of the crane, operators should
perform, at a minimum, the following steps before making lifts with any crane or hoist:
Test all warning devices.
Test all direction and speed controls.
Test the transmitter emergency stop.
