  • Year of Manufacture or when the last major inspection was completed

  • The Hoist is over 10 years old or it has exceeded its design service life.

  • The following is an extract taken from the Australian Standards. 1418. This crane is now outside of the Australian standards and should be tagged out until remedial action can be performed that meets the below standard 7.4 ASSESSMENT FOR SUITABILITY FOR CONTINUED SAFE USE 7.4.1 Assessment for continued safe operation Cranes that have reached the end of their design life shall be assessed to ensure their suitability for continued use. Where the design life is unknown, this assessment should be carried out at 10-year intervals for the mechanical components and at 25-year intervals for the structure. The assessment shall also be undertaken where maintenance records indicate repeated failures of any critical component or where the crane has been subjected to an overload greater than 10% of the safe working load for either or both the structure and hoist.

  • Is the crane in suitable condition to return into operation safely until remedial works can be performed

  • Crane has been removed from service and is now TAG OUT.

  • Is the crane looking and performing in a manner that is suitable for a return into continued service until the required remedial works are scheduled and or conducted.

  • Returned into active service...BUT revision of all crane operations and past life history to be conducted and a major inspection programme scheduled.

  • Crane has been removed from service and is now TAG OUT.

  • Please note that the design service life of a Crane is a Maximum of 10 years from the date of first service, regardless of the frequency of use. This time frame will only reduce with heavy loads and frequent use.

  • Is any of the Crane structure over 25 years old?

  • A Crane Gantry has a maximum of 25 year life span. After this time period the crane must be removed from service and be fully dismantled and internally inspected, all worn items wear items and fatigue points are to be replaced, repaired or modified to meet the latest edition of the Australian Standards covering that type of crane or just sold as scrap steel.
    This CRANE HAS BEEN TAGGED OUT and must not be used until remedial works have been completed.

    7.4 ASSESSMENT FOR SUITABILITY FOR CONTINUED SAFE USE

    7.4.1 Assessment for continued safe operation
    Cranes that have reached the end of their design life shall be assessed to ensure their suitability for continued use. Where the design life is unknown, this assessment should be carried out at 10-year intervals for the mechanical components and at 25-year intervals for the structure.
