General-duty citation text
5(a)(1): In that employees were exposed to struck by hazard due to loss of load: a) Employee used two "Renfroe" model WHSR non-locking type clamps to lift two one inch steel plates, weighing a total of approximately 13,000 pounds. The manufacturer's recommended applications and operations were not followed in that 1) the rated capacity of the clamps were exceeded by 1,000 pounds; 2) Employee attempted to lift plates without edges being even; 3) Handles on the two clamps were severely bent thereby hindering their use; 4) The clamps were not held in place until the lifting sling was tight enough to maintain the clamps' position on the plates; 5) Employee stood approximately eight to ten feet from the plate being lifted; and 6) An inspection of the clamps was not conducted before each lift. ABATEMENT NOTE: Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to correct this hazard is to strictly follow the manufacturer's recommendations and instructions.
