Preview Questions Crane Operator | Role Specific Skill

Question 1: How should a Crane Operator assess the condition of a crane before operation?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Assume that the crane is in good condition if it has been recently serviced

Focus only on the crane's external appearance

Only check the crane's fuel level and ensure it's operational

Perform a full inspection, including hydraulic systems, ropes, and safety features, before each use

Question 2: How does the wind speed affect crane load transportation, and how should it be managed?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Strong winds can cause load instability, requiring adjustments in speed or stopping the lift

Wind can be beneficial by helping to lift heavier loads

Wind increases the crane's load capacity when working in high-speed gusts

Wind has no significant impact on the load transportation

Question 3: What action should a Crane Operator take if they are unsure about the stability of a load?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Continue lifting the load and make adjustments as necessary

Attempt to lift the load anyway and observe its behavior

Stop all operations, lower the load, and consult with the supervisor before proceeding

Increase the lifting speed to minimize time

Question 4: What should be done if crane outriggers are not extending properly during an inspection?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Operate the crane with only one outrigger extended

Continue using the crane until the end of the shift

Stop crane operation and report the issue for repair

Increase the lifting weight to force the outriggers to extend

Question 5: How do you assess the maximum load that a crane can safely lift during transportation?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By checking the crane's load chart for lifting capacity

By reviewing the crane's maintenance history

By manually weighing the load

By calculating the load's center of gravity

Question 6: What is the proper method to coordinate crane lifting when several cranes are involved in a multi-crane lift operation?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Lift at different speeds to ensure minimal overlap

Allow each crane operator to control their own movements independently

Use a crane coordinator to ensure precise timing and load distribution

Only coordinate with the site manager
