If load slings are used to handle the load, the slings should be
fully seated in the saddle of the scale hook. With the scale
hook latch closed, the scale hook should be started upward
slowly until all slack has been taken out of the slings. Then
ensure the load is properly balanced and the slings are
properly positioned.
WARNING!
Loads may disengage from crane scale hook and shackle or
lifting eye if proper procedures are not followed.
A falling load may cause serious injury or death.
The crane scale hook must always support the load. The load
