Q1A banksman is directing a crane lift but loses sight of the load due to an obstruction. The site manager instructs the banksman via radio to "keep lowering" to save time. How must the banksman respond?
Show answer
✓ Correct answer: Halt the lift immediately
Operations must stop immediately if visual contact is lost. Safety overrides schedule pressure or remote instructions until safe vision is restored.
Q2An operator notices a deep crack in the casing of a 110V drill during a pre-use check. The drill has a PAT test sticker valid for another six months. What is the correct course of action?
Show answer
✓ Correct answer: Quarantine the drill immediately
A valid PAT sticker does not negate visible defects. Any equipment with physical damage affecting safety must be removed from service immediately.
Q3A worker needs to install a security camera at a height of 5 meters on soft, uneven ground. Under PUWER, which piece of equipment is most suitable for this task?
Show answer
✓ Correct answer: Use an all-terrain MEWP platform
PUWER requires equipment suitable for the conditions. An all-terrain MEWP provides the necessary stability for working on soft, uneven ground.
Q4Following a thorough examination under LOLER, a lifting accessory is reported to have a defect involving an 'immediate risk to persons'. What must happen to this equipment?
Show answer
✓ Correct answer: Withdraw from use immediately
LOLER mandates that any defect posing an immediate danger requires the equipment to be taken out of service immediately.
Q5What is the primary hazard associated with driving a forward-tipping dumper across a steep gradient (slope)?
Show answer
✓ Correct answer: The vehicle overturning sideways
Dumpers have a high center of gravity. Driving across a slope creates a high risk of lateral instability and overturning.
Q6Which sequence correctly represents the safe isolation procedure before maintaining dangerous machinery?
Show answer
✓ Correct answer: Switch off, isolate, lock, test
Safe isolation ensures equipment is dead before work starts. The correct sequence is: switch off, isolate, lock off, then test.
