Lessons LearnedLessons Learned
• Clear communication is the key to success• When transferring load from one crane to
another, add a few extra feet to the sling• Slow steady crane movements• Plan for the unexpected• Practice preparing and conducting a JSA• Measure twice cut once—Manifold slings• Bleeding pressure for CASIMs happens at about
38psi/min
