Outriggers Sample Clauses
The "Outriggers" clause defines the requirements and conditions for the use of outrigger equipment on a project site. It typically specifies the types of outrigger systems permitted, the standards they must meet, and the responsibilities for installation, inspection, and maintenance. For example, it may require that outriggers be used to stabilize cranes or scaffolding and that they be inspected before each use. The core function of this clause is to ensure safety and structural stability during construction activities, thereby minimizing the risk of accidents or equipment failure.
Outriggers. Outriggers may be used for testing if deemed necessary for test drivers' safety. In this case, the following applies for vehicles with a Static Stability Factor (SSF) ≤ 1.25:
8.3.4.1. Vehicles with a mass in running order under 1,588 kg shall be equipped with "lightweight" outriggers. Lightweight outriggers shall be designed with a maximum mass of 27 kg and a maximum roll moment of inertia of 27 kg∙m2.
8.3.4.2. Vehicles with a mass in running order between 1,588 kg and 2,722 kg shall be equipped with "standard" outriggers. Standard outriggers shall be designed with a maximum mass of 32 kg and a maximum roll moment of inertia of 35.9 kg∙m2.
8.3.4.3. Vehicles with a mass in running order equal to or greater than 2,722 kg shall be equipped with "heavy" outriggers. Heavy outriggers shall be designed with a maximum mass of 39 kg and a maximum roll moment of inertia of 40.7 kg∙m2.
Outriggers. Devices that increase the stability of the MEWP platform and that are capable of lifting and leveling the MEWP platform. Owning Department Manager: A person designated by the school, center or department hat has care, custody and control of the MEWP.
Outriggers. Stability provided by four outriggers with the following features: • Independent operation of stabilizers. • Two hydraulic-activated outriggers with flat shoes between the cab and body; two more at the rear of the chassis. • A sub-frame attached to the truck frame to secure outriggers and aerial lift. • Telescopic structural tubing for outrigger legs with adjustable wear pads to prevent vibration during transport. • Outriggers/Boom Interlock System to prevent boom operation until outriggers are fully deployed, and similarly, outriggers cannot retract while working at height. • Outrigger/Unit selector control to divert hydraulic oil from the machine circuit to outrigger operation, minimizing accidental movements. • Minimal stabilizer footprints to allow operation in a single lane, minimizing traffic obstruction. • Outrigger motion alarm provides an audible alert when outriggers are moving. • Stabilization tests and operational demonstration upon delivery.
Outriggers. Outriggers may be used for testing if deemed necessary for test drivers' safety. In this case, the following applies for vehicles with a Static Stability Factor (SSF) ≤ 1.25:
Outriggers. Support members attached to the crane’s carrier frame which is used to raise the crane off the rubber wheels for increased capacity and stability.
Outriggers. The outrigger beams shall be removed from the housing and the ▇▇▇▇ tubes shall be disassembled. The beam extension and down ▇▇▇▇ cylinders shall be overhauled. Outrigger beams and ▇▇▇▇ tubes shall be sand blasted and re-primed and painted black in color. Reflective striping and "crush hazard" warning labels shall be installed. "PULL PINS" verbiage shall be applied over the reflective stripe as a reminder for the operator to remove the safety pins before retracting the jacks. Outrigger assemblies shall be re-assembled utilizing new hardware with verified torque value, also includes new stretch wiring in the housing and new hydraulic hoses with protective wrap.
Outriggers. The crane must be level with all outriggers down on firm ground or footing prior to lifting loads or swinging the boom over the side, except as noted under the “Traveling” heading. Without the outriggers down and even with no load, it is possible to tip the crane over by simply swinging the boom over the side.
