Summary
During a mechanical lifting operation using a mobile crane, the crane was required to move and set up at a new location. The crane outrigger stabiliser pads (1.2T x 4) used to distribute the load from the outriggers were repositioned one at a time using a counterbalance forklift truck (FLT) and placed onto timber blocks to allow the removal of the forks.
