Rigging must be inspected, load weights confirmed, and damaged gear removed before lifting.

Answer Options
A
judge the weight by feel
B
use the chart maximum
C
lift and stop if it strains
D
confirm load weight

Why This Is the Correct Answer

Rigging must be inspected, load weights confirmed, and damaged gear removed before lifting.

Why the Other Options Are Wrong

Option A: judge the weight by feel

judge the weight by feel may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the rigging safety control exposure being tested.

Option B: use the chart maximum

use the chart maximum may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the rigging safety control exposure being tested.

Option C: lift and stop if it strains

lift and stop if it strains may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the rigging safety control exposure being tested.

Memory Technique

Name the harm before the guard; judge, feel, chart cannot stand in for Lift Team.

Reference Hint

Open-book path: tab OSHA 29 CFR 1926 to Subpart CC, 1926.251 Rigging equipment and Subpart H material handling; verify the OSHA safety threshold or jobsite control before answering.
