You’ve parked your vehicle on level ground to deliver a load of building materials. What should you do before using the vehicle-mounted crane?

Explanation: Before using the crane, it's vital to make sure the vehicle is parked on level ground and the stabilising legs are lowered. This will reduce the risk of the load becoming unstable during lifting. Also check for any overhead cables that may obstruct the crane.
