Updating my pre-lift inspection checklist

I’m revising our pre-lift checklist for 10-ton picks and want a concise, compliant reference for sling tag verification, shackle pin engagement, and out-of-service criteria. If you have a vetted template or a quick crosswalk to ASME B30.9/B30.26 and OSHA 1926.1413, I’d appreciate it.

For “10-ton picks”, the most useful tweak I made was adding the clause number next to each line on the checklist (e.g., sling tag check — B30.9, shackle pin engagement — B30.26, OOS — OSHA 1926.1413 with a QR to 1926.1413 - Wire rope--inspection. | Occupational Safety and Health Administration) so the crew can self-verify fast in the field. It’s kept our audits clean, but don’t paste ASME text verbatim since it’s paywalled — paraphrase the requirement and cite the clause instead.

Building on @lucas_m89, we added a 10‑second ‘no tag, no lift’ gate at the top and a shackle line that reads ‘pin shoulder seated, threads fully engaged, cotter in,’ with a QR to Crosby’s pocket card: The Crosby Group has moved! If crews aren’t into QR codes, we laminate that one-pager on the back; the little color box next to each item works like a traffic light.
