even gently? Why must the telehandler operator ensure that the boom operating controls are 68 isolated before the slinger attaches the load? 69 What is the recommended travel speed when travelling with a suspended load? When picking up a suspended load, what constitutes the total weight that is to be 70 lifted by the machine? 71 Travelling with extra-long loads should be undertaken with a slinger for what reason? 72 a) What is the purpose of a lift plan and b) when would one be required? The safe working load (SWL) of a multi-leg chain sling only applies in what TWO 73 conditions or configuration? Whilst being guided by a slinger/signaller, the operator loses sight of them. What 74 should the operator do? If the operator has to attach their own load, what should they ensure before leaving 75 the cab of the machine? Only two legs of a 4 tonne 4 legged chain sling are being used. What is the maximum 76 load that can be lifted with that sling? What THREE factors must be taken into account if a load is being lifted onto a 77 platform with a set of lifting chains which are long in length? Accessories or attachments for suspended loads must only be attached to 78 lifting point. Explain THREE possible consequences if the manufacturer’s approved recommendations are not followed. Travelling in a forward direction with a suspended load which has a large surface 79 area, even though within safe limits, can be hazardous for what THREE reasons? If fitting an approved attachment such as a lifting jib, what TWO ways can the 80 rated lift capacity be affected? machine’s a) What would be considered the main danger zone for a slinger/signaller (load 81 handler) when controlling a suspended load during pick-and-carry duties and b) what could be a consequence if the slinger/signaller was within the zone during travel? In terms of visibility, turning to the right with a raised boom can be more hazardous for 82 what reason? To minimise the risk of a sideways overturn, how should the boom be positioned 83 when travelling with a suspended load?
