What are the possible outcomes of facing prosecution for not complying with legislation and 54 regulations? Name THREE ways in which a slinger/signaller can minimise their impact upon the environment during lifting operations. 55 What makes up the total (or gross) weight of a load that is to be lifted? 56 What possible effects does excessive rain have on the lifting operation? 57 What must be taken into account if a suspended load is being lifted with an accessory e.g. chains, which has extra-long legs? 58 Before guiding and assisting the movement of mobile lifting equipment that is being repositioned to carry out a new lifting operation a) what should the marshaller/signaller 59 ensure and b) with whom? Wind speeds can be variable throughout the working day. What action must be taken to ensure safe working conditions are maintained? 60 Which parts of a slewing-type lifting equipment is the radius (for lifting) measured from? 61 When undertaking a pick-and-carry duty, explain why turning, even gently, with a suspended load can cause an effect on the machine. 62 Give TWO examples of where The Work at Height Regulations may apply to lifting operations. 63 What could affect the strength of the signal if radios are being used between the lifting equipment operator and the slinger/signaller? 64 Suspended loads with a large surface area need additional care for what reason? 65 a) What is the purpose of a Method Statement, lift plan and b) what is required of the 66 slinger/signaller? Name THREE ways in which wind speed can affect the lifting operation. 67 List SIX typical subject areas that should be covered in a site induction. 68 List SIX factors that must be taken into account by both the machine operator and slinger/signaller if a suspended load is to be travelled across a site. 69 The slinger has to use new lifting accessories that they are unfamiliar with. What do Regulations (e.g. LOLER 98) and other guidance require the slinger/signaller to have? 70 When checking the condition of lifting accessories, why must gloves be worn? 71 On the lifting capacity diagram chart within in Section A40: a) what is the type of sling shown in item B and b) what is type of hitch shown? 72
