Question 627 Deck General
70% to passHow should you signal the crane operator to move slowly?
The correct answer is B) Use one hand to give any motion signal, and place the other hand motionless in front of the hand giving the motion signal. This is the correct answer because it aligns with standard crane hand signal regulations. The purpose of using this signal is to indicate to the crane operator that the load should be moved slowly. Placing one hand motionless in front of the hand giving the motion signal helps emphasize the need for slow, controlled movements. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not match the standard crane hand signals. Tapping the elbow, head, or using a thumb-up signal are not the recognized methods for indicating slow movement to a crane operator.
