10.9.2 Storage

When not in use, the slewing jib arm should be positioned so that it does not present a hazard to persons, goods or vehicles, etc. which may be working or stored in the area. Where practicable, if the crane is not in regular use the lifting appliance should be removed for storage. If this is not possible or desirable, the lifting appliance should be parked where it will not present a hazard, e.g. against the pivot point end stop. It may be necessary to secure the jib arm to prevent movement taking place as the result of winds, etc.
