I’m no expert but if the cranes cabin is so insecure that the ambient breeze at altitude causes it to move, then I would not be trusting it with my live
As far as I know, no. When you test for it you’ll go to a test center for the written, and more than likely where you do your schooling they’ll have a Procter there for the practical. But if you’re going to drive to a job site with a crane, you need one.
Do you ever have homeless people up in there? We did and the one time he was caught up there stealing the guys sun glasses and binoculars too. how messed up... Racoons have messed up the electrical.. we were down for an entire day because of those things :)
Maybe someone can explain what the numbers showing on the meter represent? Is it something you would look at to show the way? Balance? Is it used to center the load?
The first top number shows you the radius: which is the distance from the hook to the center of the slew ring. Second number show the weight on the hooks. Third one shows the hook height. Fourth one shows the angle of the slew(not working). Last one shows the wind speed.
@@towercranebyLJ Thank you very much. The only crane I ever worked on was on the back of a truck when I used to set tombstone’s for a family business. You can use all of those numbers in calculating the maximum load which constantly changes depending on those numbers you mentioned. I’m surprised they don’t have another gauge which uses those calculations to give you the maximum load allowable since it already has the numbers needed. If you know what I mean and I’m pretty sure you do. The angle of the crane to the tower which is the radius, the distance from the tower, and the links I’m not sure about. How far down the load is if that has a bearing on the maximum. I do remember with the little hand crane, I was constantly trying to move the load closer And raising the boom and bringing it in so I didn’t overload. This is the same principle but on a much grander scale
@@towercranebyLJ i do project to my univeristy about crane operator I would really appreciate it if you could send me a detailed description of the buttons
Show de bola amigo, vim aqui no RU-vid procurar algum vídeo sobre o trabalho e encontrei um brasileiro! Moro na Inglaterra e trabalho em obras, Estou pensando em fazer o curso pra operar Cranes. Você trabalha onde?
