Regular inspections help catch developing problems, reduce the risk of equipment failure, and support safe lifting operations.

Signs Your Mobile Crane or Boom Needs Inspection

Crane and boom components experience repeated stress during lifting operations. Schedule an inspection if you notice:

• Visible cracks, corrosion, or deformation along boom sections
• Hydraulic leaks around cylinders, hoses, or fittings
• Jerky, slow, or inconsistent boom movement
• Unusual grinding, squealing, or knocking during operation
• Damaged wire ropes, hooks, or lifting attachments
• Excessive play in boom joints, pins, or connection points
• Malfunctioning controls, warning indicators, or safety devices
• Outriggers or stabilizers that fail to extend or hold properly

Equipment showing these symptoms should be evaluated before further lifting operations. Early identification can help prevent serious mechanical failures and unsafe working conditions.
