Loads
Before loading/unloading
• Before lifting any loads check if the load lifting gear is used correctly.
• Observe special instructions about load handling and/or lifting gear (e.g. lifting points, center of
gravity, orientation, etc.)
• Secure the load.
• The weight of the load must be known. If information about the weight is not available, it has to be
calculated or estimated.
• Make sure the load is free to move and not anchored, iced or otherwise attached to the ground.
• Before lifting, remove ice or snow from the load. Wet or icy loads may slip off.
• Lift the load only above its center of gravity.
