Inspecting the Anti-Two-Blocking System
Test the anti-two-block system daily before beginning
operation to make sure it is functioning properly.
Raise the drop block until it hits the anti-two-blocking bracket
under the boom head. An alarm should sound and the
raising of the hoist block should stop.
Lower the hoist block and the alarm will stop.
If there is a malfunction in the system, DO NOT operate the
crane. Have the malfunction corrected.

Each day before beginning operation, visually inspect the
wire rope for damage. Refer to 50 Hour Maintenance for
examples of damage that can be visually inspected for. If any
damage is found, do not operate the crane. The wire rope
must be replaced with a new rope before operation can
resume.
Inspecting Reeving, Clamps and Connections
Each day before beginning operation, inspect for correct
reeving of the boom and drop block.
Inspect the terminal ends of the wire rope for damaged parts,
loose clamps or wrong installation.
Do not operate the crane if any of the above are found. Only
after correcting the problem should the crane be put back in
service.
