  1. The crane is out of level, you release the swing brake, the boom swings downhill, you radius
    Increases
  2. Blocking can be placed under the ends of tracks to
    Increase the cranes stability when operating over the front or back

  7. On a lattice boom crawler crane, the main boom length is measured from the
    Center of the heel pins to the center of the boom tip sheave
  8. If you can't level a crawler crane
    Don't operate the crane
  9. What effect does having the crawlers retracted have on a crawler crane with a long boom
    Decrease in capacity
  10. If your crawler crane s on a barge, it is necessary to
    Secure the crane to the barge
  11. A pin-connected lattice boom is being dismantled. After connecting the equalizer (bridle) to the connecting lugs on the boom, which boom connecting pins should be removed first
    Lower connection pins located ahead of the equalizer
  12. When using a mobile crane on a barge, the cranes load capacity chart shall be
    Replaced by a list chart
  13. How many broken wires are permitted at the end connection of a pendant before it must be taken out of service
    1
  14. If high winds are expected and the lattice boom crane must be secured pointing into the wind, then the hook should be
    Secured to a solid structure directly below the boom point
  15. When assembling a lattice boom on most crawler cranes using inserts of different lengths, which insert section generally should be closest to the boom foot
    10ft (shortest link first)
  16. During assembly where should you attach slings to lift boom sections
    End Fittings
  17. Which boom configuration can cause the most hazardous boom side-loading condition
    Long boom with minimum radius
  18. When is it safe to handle loads under powerlines
    The load nor any part of the crane can come closer than regulations allow
  19. On a lattice boom truck crane, boom angle is measured between the centerline of the
    Loaded boom and the horizontal
  20. When a lattice boom truck crane is lifting on outriggers, the floats or pads should always be
    Secured to the outriggers
  21. Manufacturer specifications permit only a certain amount of boom to be suspended out past the connection point of the pendants during assembly or disassembly of the boom. The portion of boom that is suspended in this way is called the
    Cantilever length
  22. When lattice boom is being disassembled or shortened it is extremely important to
    Never touch any pin on any boom section located between the pendant attachment points and the crane
  23. When installing a pin-connected lattice boom on a mobile crane you should always
    Use the boom hoist pawl to hold the boom
  24. When you change the jib to ground angle from 40 degrees to 30 degrees you have
    Decreased the capacity of the jib
  25. A lattice boom truck crane with a 120 ft boom will be operating at a 42 ft radius. the load chart shows and entry indicating 25,000 lbs at a 40 ft radius, followed immediately by an entry listing 20,000 lbs at a 45 ft radius. what is the cranes capacity at the 42 ft radius
    20,000 lbs
  26. A truck crane operating with outriggers fully extended and set, does not have a fifth front outrigger, the operator should
    Refer to the manufacturers working area diagram
  27. A crane that climbs a 7% grande, one mile hill, should descend down the hill in
    4th or 5th gear
  28. A lattice boom truck crane, when setup out of level, will lose the most capacity with
    Long boom, Short radius
  29. The device that automatically stops the boom when it nears the maximum angle is the
    Boom hoist kick-out
  30. When a lattice boom truck crane is operating on properly set outriggers, the tipping axis is located at the
    Point where the outriggers touch the ground
  31. The purpose of placing mats or cribbing under outrigger floats is to
    Distribute the downward force of the float over a larger area
  32. A crane loses stability when its leverage on the load is
    Less than the load leverage on the crane
  33. If a lattice boom truck crane is going to perform work over the front it must have
    A front mounted outrigger
  34. Each outrigger pad and its blocking should be sufficient to support
    The total weight of the crane and its load
  35. How does high wind affect the setup of a crane with a long boom
    Introduces side load onto the boom
  36. When a lattice boom truck crane that is properly set up with no front outrigger and the boom is positioned over the front, the combined center of gravity of the carrier and upperworks will move
    Closer to the axis
  37. When personnel platforms are lifted with a telescopic crane
    A two block damage prevention system is to be provided
  38. What item can be removed from a carry deck crane
    Boom Extension
  39. The lever on the far left of most hydraulic cranes is
    Boom swing
  40. A telescopic crane is equipped with an anti-two-block lock-out device. then the device is activated which functions should be disabled
    Hoist up, extend out, and lower the boom.
  41. When transporting a load on the deck of a carrydeck crane, the operator should
    Travel with the outriggers partially extended
  42. Jib capacities are based on
    Structural strength
  43. When making a lift on outriggers, the maximum ground-bearing pressure occurs
    Over the corner
  44. A cranes jib is offset 15 degrees verses its original 0 degrees offset, but the boom angle remains unchanged. In this situation, the load radius
    Increases
  45. Blocking which is not tightly placed may fail at
    50% of design
  46. If the jib is offset, the cranes capacity will be
    Reduced
  47. The safest speed fro a crane carrying a load is
    The manufacturers speed limit
  48. The boom angle indicator indicates
    Angle of boom to horizontal
  49. When performing a pick and carry lift with a R/T hydraulic crane, which of the following is the most important consideration
    Keeping the boom as low as possible with the load close to the ground
  50. In setting up the crane, the operator can extend 3 outriggers fully and only 1 halfway out, but all vertical cylinders are down, and floats are on good supports. The operator must
    Use the on rubber load chart.
