A mobile crane’s outriggers must be fully extended and set unless which condition is true?
Explanation
The manufacturer’s load chart in use lists that outrigger configuration. — Capacity is only valid for the configuration on the chart in the cab — including outrigger spread.
Why the others are wrong
The operator prefers a shorter footprint on a tight site. — Preference is not a chart condition. Short-rigging without the matching chart is overloading the machine.
The ground looks firm and the lift is under 50% of chart. — Neither ‘looks firm’ nor an arbitrary percentage replaces the published configuration.
A supervisor has signed a deviation in the FLHA. — A site form cannot raise a crane’s rated capacity or change the OEM configuration rules.
