What is wrong with this?
When I see brochures for companies, naturally I gravitate to the picture, simply to see if the operator is doing more than just posing for a photo. You see I believe that safety, ALL facets of safety should be adherence no matter what the circumstance. Even if it is for photo opp that a company wants to use to sell its services to another company.
I get what the picture was to show, a product installed on a truck to showcase the crane and possibly the body the crane sits on top of, but this is not the right way to showcase your stuff. Take the time,
In that regard, it is more prevalent for the picture to be even better controlled. In the included picture, lets just look at it and see what we see:
- Operator is not standing in the right place, always operate the crane outside of the in-use radius of the crane. Large trip hazard behind him
- Crane does not have the proper use of stabilizer legs, the installed side of the crane always has an extendible stabilizer beam, picture or not, it should be used.
- Stabilizer legs do not have pads underneath them. Do you really know how much pressure is exerted under the foot?
- Truck does not have wheel chocks in place. Always on the crane install side
- Mark off the working area, that pylon in the bed is useless, put it where it needs to be.
