6. Aisles between equipment, stock, etc., should be free of obstructions so the radio control operator can

move freely. These aisles should meet local regulations.

7. Radio controlled operators should always position themselves for the best view of the equipment they are

controlling. The equipment should never be operated blindly. The operator should always remain at a safe
distance, without losing line of sight with the equipment.

8. Transmitter switches should never be mechanically blocked ON or OFF for any equipment motion. When

not in use turn the transmitter OFF (E-STOP) and remove the transmitter key.

9. After daily operation, shut off main power in crane/machine, the power to the receiver, and remove

transmitter key. A secure storage space should be designated for the transmitter unit especially when not in
use. This precaution is intended to prevent unauthorized use of the equipment.

10. The equipment operator should keep all body parts away from any moving parts and should never be

positioned under a lifted load. Do not make a lift or move a load if anyone is in a location where they could
be struck by the crane/equipment or the load.

11. If the equipment fails to respond properly, the crane/equipment operator should stop operation, turn the

transmitter OFF (E-Stop) and remove the transmitter key. The operator should immediately report the
condition to his/her supervisor.

12. The crane/equipment operator should turn off the transmitter and take it with him/her when and if

operation if there are people aboard the controlled equipment. The remote control operator should NEVER
“ride” on the controlled equipment.

WARNING

ALWAYS PLACE CRANE/EQUIPMENT IN MANUAL OPERATION AND SECURE THE WIRELESS
REMOTE CONTROL TRANSMITTER PRIOR TO PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE.

14. The equipment has been tested for correct operation before delivery from the factory. However, it must

not be used in critical or hazardous operation where incorrect operation may cause personal or equipment
damage. If the equipment fails to respond or behaves improperly, the equipment operator should NOT
operate the equipment AND should notify his/her supervisor immediately. When serious conditions are
