| What’s Wrong With Free Rigging? |
| | It’s been said that necessity is the mother of invention. So when forklift operator’s are faced with moving a variety of unusual material they have come up with innovative ways to accomplish the task. One of these ways is what is often called free rigging.
Free rigging is the practice of attaching any of a variety of rigging equipment (such as chains, slings, shackles, rings, etc.) directly to the forks and suspending an object below the forks.
The problem is that free rigging, even though common, poses several hazards. The use of a sling, etc. can be considered to be a modification by OSHA and therefore requires the manufacturers written approval. |
