Incorrect Rigging
Some of the big saw operators have to use their body weight and a lot of grunting to get what they want out of their machine. Others keep their wheels aligned and spend time riding the handlebars.
Either way, it is a tough job. Bridge demo can be really hazardous for these guys. Have seen saw and operator drop through due to incorrect layout of cut lines.
As to the rigging.... Must confess the sin of using a chain sling on that pick.
ointhead The crane operator's enthusiasm to loosen a stubborn beam with his boss' new 80 ton crane exceeded the WLL of the cable slings I was required to provide them.:Banghead A new and much larger diameter set arrived the next morning and provided excellent service for the remainder of the job.
Good safety eye on that one!:cool2
