11.5 LIFTING SLINGS

There are two types of lifting slings used on this job, wire slings and webbing slings. It is
very important that they are used and stored correctly.
Always use the right slings for the job, each sling has its safe working load (SWL) printed
or attached to the sling. Never try to make up, prefabricate lifting equipment.
Do not use a sling if there is no SWL written or attached, remove the sling and give it to
your supervisor.
Never tie knots in webbing or wire slings. This will damage the sling and it will need to be
discarded.
Always check a sling before use, look for tears, cuts and broken wires and if you have
any doubts about the sling show it to your supervisor. Wire slings must not have more
than five broken wires in one lay and must not be crushed or kinked. Nylon slings must
not be knotted or torn in the centre of the sling.
Never drag a sling from under a load if it is not free.
Webbing slings should not be dragged through oil or along the ground. Store the sling in
a rolled position making sure the sling is dry and stored in a dry place.
Be careful not to wrap the edges of the sling on sharp corners. Use packing materials
rubber, wood, cloth anything that will keep the slings surfaces away from sharp edge.
Always attach the sling properly to the load. Do not use a combination of wire and
webbing slings together, webbing will be cut by the wire sling.
All lifting equipment must be inspected, documented and colour coded.

12 QUALITY ASSURANCE
A Quality Assurance System shall be operated conforming to related standards.
