SAFETY TIP #09
REMOVE DAMAGED EQUIPMENT FROM SERVICE

Damaged lifting equipment is never worth the risk. ⚠️

Web slings, endless round slings, shackles and other lifting equipment must be inspected regularly. If you find cuts, fraying, excessive wear, deformation or other defects — STOP using it.

❌ Tag it
❌ Remove it from service
✅ Repair or replace it before it is used again

Think Safe. Work Safe. Home Safe. 💙💛

⚠️ SAFETY TIP #08: ONLY TRAINED PERSONNEL SHOULD OPERATE EQUIPMENT

Lifting equipment is only as safe as the person operating it.

Only trained, competent and authorised personnel should operate lifting equipment. Proper training helps ensure operators understand the equipment, safe operating procedures and the risks involved.

🚫 Don’t take chances. Don’t let untrained personnel operate lifting equipment.

Safety starts with the right training.

Think Safe. Work Safe. Home Safe.

A successful load test is more than a pass or fail—it's about keeping people safe.

After identifying issues during load testing, our team completed the required repairs to restore the equipment to a safe working condition.

Helping our clients operate safely is what we do best.

⚠️ SAFETY TIP #07: Keep Clear of the Load Path

A load doesn't have to fall to be dangerous. Even a controlled lift can swing, shift, or travel unexpectedly, putting anyone in its path at serious risk.

Always stay outside the load travel area and never walk beneath or alongside a moving load. Safe lifting starts with awareness, communication, and following the correct procedures.

Think Safe. Work Safe. Home Safe.
