SAFETY IN OPERATION OF LIFTING TOOLS
PURPOSE
40% Accidents are due to Material handling
It accounts 40% production cost
It does not add value to the product but it cost to the product
A large cost of product cost is due to Material handing
Major activities in Cement Industries is Material Handling
Listing tools and tackles comes under Material handling
activity
It has potential for high risk and accidents

3. 3
TIPS FOR CORRECT LIFTING PRACTICE
Find out the correct weight of the load to be lifted
Slightly lift the load check for CG , imbalance etc
While lifting ensure that the load is not obstructing to any
of the parts of structure
Loose nuts & bolts must be kept in a box and not on the
structures.The box to be properly anchored.
Avoid sudden break or sudden release of the load . Impact
load may result in breaking of the rope/chain
persons with B.P or epilepsy shall not be allowed to work at
heights
Barricade the area of loads lifting/ sparks falling
Full body safety Harness is a must at heights more than 1.8M

6. 6
CHAIN BLOCK
PROPER USE OF CHAIN BLOCK
Never drag the chain block on the floor. It must be caried
Chin block when not in use must be hanged on hooks and
kept under cover and not left on floor
It must be inspected before and after use
Chain block to be lubricated periodically
Once in year or often dismantle the chain completely and
examine the parts thoroughly and replace worn out parts.
Maintain proper service record of chain block
Load capacity never be exceed. It is advisable to lift 10% less
load then specified. Jerks load while lifting to be avoided

7. 7
JACKS
It is a portable tools used for lifting heavy load s through short
distance. There are several types of jacks
Screw Jacks
Screw jacks with ratchet handle
Hydraulic Jack with inbuilt pump
Hydraulic jack with separate pump etc

8. 8
JACKS
PROPER USE OF JACK
Chose a jack of at least 25% higher capacity htna the load to
be lifted
Use wooden block below and above jacks to reduce chance
of slipping
Use same capacity and same stroke length jacks when lifting
load with two or more jacks simultaneously
Inspect, clean lubricate jacks before and after use of jacks
Never drag the jacks on floor
When not in store jacks properly in racks after applying a thin
layer of grease to prevent rust
Use jacks according to instruction of manufacturer. All jacks
have a marks on the ram indicating the limits of ram travel
which never be exceeded

9. 9
JACKS
PROPER USE OF JACK
Always use clean oil of given specification according to
manufacturer
Use standard length levers provided with hydraulic jacks not
any available bars
There are some jacks which are manufactured only for use in
vertical position only which should not be used in horizontal
position.

2.Dimension
3.Special instruction if any
4.Hazardous/ Danger involved
Where the load will be shifted
1.With in the Plant
2.With in the store area
3.Distance
4.Pathway is clear and free from any shorts of hazards

13. 13
CRANES –OPERATION SAFETY
Method to be adopted
1.Manual handling
a. Where the workers are trained
b. Proper PPEs are available
Mechanical handling
1.What is the handling equipment
2.Is it suitable for the load
3.Is the crane capacity is sufficient for the load
4.Is the all the tools are tested and examined by
competent persons
5.Is the equipment is good working condition
6.Is the equipment is provided with safety devices

14. 14
CRANES –OPERATION SAFETY
About the operator
1.Is the operator trained for operation
2.Does poses license if required
3.Is the operator is aware about method of handling
4.Is the operator is aware about the hazards
associated with the handling and course of action to
be taken by him in case of emergency or accident
About he Supervisor
1.Is he trained
2.Is he familiar with statutory requirement
3.Is he capable of handling emergency

15. 15
CRANES-OPERATION SAFETY
Operate the equipment if
1.Equipment has been operated bare once
2.The load has been correctly fastened/ Balance way
3.Suitable PPEs has been provided
4.Environment is safe

16. 16
OTHER IMPORTANT FACTOR FOR CRANE OPERATION
Before start of lifting following conditions to be fulfilled
1.Slings must not be kinked
2.Load must be must be in plumb line
3.There must not be sudden jerks
4.The load should be lifted few inches first and observed the
balance to know the degree of tilt
5.No body is allowed to be under the suspended load
6.Obstruction/Entangle of load should be avoid because it
will over stretch the hoisting rope
7.Rubbing of hoisting hope with any stationary/moving
object should be avoided

17. 17
OTHER IMPORTANT FACTOR FOR CRANE OPERATION
Transversing of load
1.The load must be move after hoisting and clearing the
obstruction
2.Two movement should not be done same time
3.Uniform speed to be maintained
4.The sweeping zone should be kept free from obstruction
5.During movement of load it must be kept visible as far as
practicable to operator. If it is not posible thenhelp to be
taken from Signaler.

3.Nobody is allow3d inside the cabin while loading the
trucks
4.Positioning and resting of load on plum line and it will be
standstill upto removal of load

19. 19

24. 24
ROPE
Lofting tackle is device which is used to facilitates for lifting load
such as
Rope
1.Fibre rope
2.Wire rope
3.Synthetic rope
4.Chain

25. 25
FIBRE ROPE
Handling care and Use of Fibre rope
Fibre rope never be stores on floor or in box. It should be
hang on well ventilated room. A wet rope should be throughly
dried and cleaned before storage. It must not be kept near
high temp area. Carbon mono-oxide and Carbon di-oxide
causes rapid deterioration of the rope
When a rope is used as as sling, it should not pass over
sharp edge of casing/beam. ( If rope rope makes an angle of
60 Deg with horizontal then they have only 86% of its
strength, 71% at 45 Deg and 50% at 30 Deg
Rope should not be dragged on ground
Fibre rope should be inspected thoroughly before and after
use the out side as well as inside ( by untwisting the strand).
Accumulation like powder like saw dust inside rope indicate
excessive internal wear. Excessive oil on the outside of the
rope is the indication of overload

26. 26
FIBRE ROPE
Handling care and Use of Fibre rope
If the inside the rope is dirty, if the strand have begun to unlay
or if the rope has lost its life elasticity it should not used for
