When is it permissible for the operator to leave the crane?

  1. Break time

  2. End of the shift

  3. After securing the crane

  4. When a storm is coming

The correct answer is: End of the shift

The operator should leave the crane only when it is safe to do so, and this typically corresponds to the end of the shift. At the end of the shift, all safety protocols should be followed to ensure the crane is secured and left in a safe condition. This includes completing any necessary inspections and not leaving the crane in operation or on a load. While there are circumstances, such as breaks or emergencies, where an operator might need to leave the crane, these situations often require that the crane be properly secured first to ensure no accidents or operational issues arise. Leaving the crane unattended without securing it could violate safety regulations and pose significant risks.
