Operator training actually helps to extend the life of cranes by ensuring high performance and safe operation of the crane.

Articulated cranes under 16,000 lbs. capacity could only be operated by operators who are accredited. Operators need to know concerning the operational characteristics and features of the equipment. Prior to use, a pre-operational equipment check has to be done. There is a legal prerequisite to carry out a pre-operational check and a check of the overhead conditions and work-site ground.

The manufacturer's instructions provide information about inspection and maintenance, loading and unloading of the crane. The law requires annual and daily checks. Drivers should maintain an up-to-date logbook within most places. They may be needed to confirm equipment warranties.

Adding remote control devices to the cranes is often recommended. Remote control improves safety by allowing the driver an easier alternative for handling the crane.

Improving crane safety will often help a company's bottom line. Such companies that follow safe machine practices would usually see bigger cost savings compared to companies that don't.

Safety conscious operators are a lot more productive leading to less times needed for loading and unloading.
