who should inspect a crane?

Awesome!

Daily operator checks are non-negotiable, but having a certified inspector take a deeper look definitely helps catch hidden issues before they become major problems.

@Marlouie Rosato, good question about scheduling third-party inspections. At our site, we do them proactively every six months, and they’ve caught a few things we might have missed. Has anyone here switched up their inspection schedule and noticed a difference in safety or maintenance costs?
 
Totally agree with the mix of daily checks and certified inspections, it saved us big time once when a third-party caught a cracked weld we would’ve never spotted. Anyone here doing drone inspections for cranes yet?
 
Been working with cranes for years, and I can say daily operator checks are non-negotiable, they catch a lot of small stuff early. But for the deeper issues, certified third-party inspections are a must, especially for heavily used or older equipment. We usually schedule them quarterly, but if a crane’s seeing nonstop action, we might bump that up. Anyone else adjust their inspection frequency based on workload or environment?
 
we do third-party inspections twice a year and ita caught stuff we totally miss otherwise. .Honestly a small investment for a huge peace of mind. Anyone else ramp up inspections during busy seasons?
