2. Prepare for Work/Task: Consult with personnel, implement risk control measures, access and check crane, set up and rig crane properly, perform operational checks, inspect crane logbook, assess weather conditions, calculate load weight, select lifting points and gear, and prepare load destination.

3. Perform Work/Task: Ensure lifts are within crane capacity, position hook block, connect and use lifting gear safely, carry out test lift, transfer loads following procedures, monitor crane movements, follow communication signals, lower and land load safely, and prepare gear for next task.
