The use of hoists and cranes is subject to certain hazards that cannot be reduced or eliminated by engineered features, but only by the exercise of intelligence, care, common sense and experience in anticipating the effects and results of activating the equipment's controls. Therefore, it is essential that operators are properly trained about equipment and how to operate it safely.
