Hook and Wire Cable – Inspect
Inspect the Hook
Inspect the hook frequently. The inspections should include observation of the hook during operation of the hook. A
designated person determines if the conditions that are found during the inspections constitute a hazard. The designated
person will determine if a more detailed inspection is required.
• Inspect the hook for any distortion such as bends in the hook or twists in the hook.
• Inspect the hook for any wear.
• Inspect the hook for cracks, nicks, or gouges.
• If a latch is provided, inspect the latch. Make sure that the latch engages properly. Inspect the latch for any damage.
Make sure that the latch is not malfunctioning.
• Inspect the hook assembly and the means for securing the hook assembly.
• For additional information on the proper maintenance and on the proper inspection of hooks, refer to "American
National Standard Institute ANSI/ASME B30.14".
Inspect Wire Cable - Boom and Hook lines
Make a visual inspection of all running cables that are in continuous use. Make the inspection of the running cables on a
daily basis before the machine is placed in operation. Inspect all of the cables on a monthly basis.
All inspections shall be performed by a designated person. Keep a dated report of the condition of the cable on file in a
location that is available to designated personnel. Perform a close inspection of the sections of the cable that are normally
hidden during the visual inspection and the maintenance inspection. (This includes the sections of the cable that pass over
the sheaves.) These points are the sections of the cable that are most likely to fail.
Note any deterioration that results in a notable loss of the original strength. (See the conditions that are described below.)
Determine if further use of the cable will constitute a hazard.
Inspect the cable on a daily basis for the following conditions:
• Inspect the cable for a reduction in the diameter of the cable below the nominal diameter. A loss of support in the cored
wire of the cable may be caused by internal corrosion, external corrosion, or wear of the outside wires.
• Inspect the cable for broken outside wires. Check for the degree of distribution of the broken outside wires. Check for the
concentration of outside broken wires.
• Inspect the cable for worn outside wires.
• Inspect the cable for corroded wires and for broken wires at the connection on the wire cable end.
