    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Constructional and testing requirements including marking for cranes.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This British Standard specifies constructional and testing requirements for automatic safe load indicators for cranes. It is common practice to fit devices associated with an automatic safe load indicator which prevent certain motions of the crane after the point has been reached where the overload warning is given; these additional motion limiting features are not covered by this British Standard.

    Appendix A lists British Standards for material and equipment suitable for use in the manufacture of automatic safe load indicators. Appendix B details legislation relating to cranes.

    NOTE. The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover.
