This daily pre-start inspection template helps operators verify overhead crane safety and compliance at the start of each shift. It covers pre-operation checks, operator readiness, controls, and site clearance. Detailed equipment inspections include bridge, hoist, trolley, rails, conductors, bumpers, guards, limit switches, hooks, ropes, drums, and signage. It also guides safe rigging and moving of loads, brake testing near rated loads, lockout mechanisms, and documentation with inspector signature. The template is customizable to your crane and worksite and is intended as a starting point, not a substitute for professional advice.
