4 Pole Hauling Continued from page 1 boomed or otherwise secured to the towing motor vehicle, for transporting long or irregularly shaped loads such as poles, pipes, or structural members, which generally are capable of sustaining themselves as beams between the supporting connections. For truck-trailer combinations the legal maximum length is 65, however there is an exception to this rule, which allows pole trailer combinations to be more. When we are pulling a pole trailer we have a limit of 85 from the front bumper to the end of the pole trailer load. More than 85 we need a permit (KSA ), the limitations in this section SHALL NOT apply to vehicles transporting such objects operated at nighttime by a public utility when required for emergency repair. KSA (E) Every vehicle SHALL be equipped with a sufficient number of clearance lamps on both sides and marker lamps upon the extreme ends of any projecting load to clearly mark the dimensions of such load. Next is the light bar. FMCSR SUBPART B FOOTNOTE 10 Projections beyond rear of motor vehicles. Motor vehicles transporting loads which extend more than 4 beyond the rear of the motor vehicle, or which have tailboards or tailgates extending more than 4 beyond the body, SHALL have these projections marked as follows when the vehicle is operated during the hours when headlamps are required to be used (sunset to sunrise): f(1) f on each side of the projecting load, one red side marker lamp, visible from the side, located so as to indicate maximum overhang. f(2) f On the rear of the projecting load, two red lamps, visible from the rear, one at each side; and two red reflectors visible from the rear, one at each side, located so as to indicate maximum width. FMCSR When it comes to the trailer and the lighting it has several rules and 17 footnotes that the trailer manufactures should be meeting. If we have older trailers we need to make sure they meet the rule. With the information listed above hopefully that helps with what we are doing and what we should not be doing when it comes to hauling poles.

5 Tie-Downs vs. Lifting Devices BY LARRY E. DETWILER, DIRECTOR LOSS CONTROL SAFETY & COMPLIANCE I am writing this article due to the possible confusion for our Member Systems and their employees when trying to meet Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSR), and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requirements. During numerous On-Site Regulatory Compliance Visits throughout the state, Rural Electric Safety Achievement Program (RESAP) Observations over numerous years, the question is always asked Is there a specific grade of alloy steel chain required when used as a tie-down or a lifting device? It appeared that the question was fairly straightforward and easily met to comply with several regulations. However, anyone who has ever researched, and then interpreted the rule/regulation to the best of an individual s abilities knows it is not as simple as it appears. Alloy steel chains commonly referred to as log chains or butt chains have been commonly used in the electric utility industry for years not only to tie-down equipment on utility vehicles and trailers, but also used in lifting of electrical equipment and materials. These devices, some at the cooperative for years, maybe since the cooperative was established, have been used successfully by cooperative line crews without incident. So let's get started with discussion of alloy steel chains, the first regulation to be discussed is the FMCSR and the requirements for tie-down devices; Development of a North American Standard for Protection Against Shifting and Following Cargo On September 27, 2002, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), DOT issued its final rule concerning revisions to the protection against shifting and following cargo for commercial motor vehicles (CMVs). In the preamble of this final rule FMCSA states; the final rule does not include a prohibition on the use of unmarked tie-down devices. However, in view of the potential safety hazards of motor carriers misidentifying unmarked tie-downs, the final rule includes a provision that unmarked welded (alloy) steel chain be considered to have a working load limit (WLL) equal to that of grade 30 proof coil, and other types of unmarked tie-downs be considered to have a working load limit equal to the lowest rating for the type in the table of working load limits. The compliance date set by FMCSA was January 1, 2004 as the deadline for motor carriers to ensure compliance with this final rule What are the minimum performance criteria for cargo securement devices and systems? (c) Prohibition on exceeding working load limits. Cargo securement devices and systems must be designed, installed, and maintain to ensure that the maximum forces acted on the devices or systems do not exceed the working load limit for the devices What standards must cargo securement devices and systems meet in order to satisfy the requirements of this subpart? (a) General. All devices and systems used to secure cargo to or within a vehicle must be capable of meeting the requirements of (b) Prohibition on the use of damage securement devices. All vehicle structures, systems, parts, and components used to secure cargo must be in proper working order when used to perform that function with no damaged or weakened components that will adversely affect their performance for cargo securement purposes, including reducing the working load limit, and must not have any cracks or cuts. (e) Manufacturing standards for tie-down assemblies (including chains, wire rope, steel strapping, synthetic webbing, and cordage) and other attachment or fastening devices used to secure articles of cargo to, or in, commercial motor vehicles must conform to the following applicable standards: (2) Chain National Association of Chain Manufacturers Welded Steel Chain Specifications (11/15/99). Continued on page 6 KANSAS ELECTRIC COOPERATIVES, INC. PO BOX 4267, TOPEKA, KS,
6 Tie-Downs vs. Lifting Devices Continued from page How is the working load limit of a tie-down determined? (a) The working load limit (WLL) of a tie-down, associated connector or attachment mechanism is the lowest working load limit of any of its components (including tensioner), with working load limits of the anchor points to which it is attached, whichever is less. (b) Working load limits of the tie-downs may be determined by using either the tie-down Manufacturers markings or by using the tables in this section. The working load limits listed in the tables are to be used when the tie-down material is not marked by the manufacturer with the working load limit. Tie-down materials which are marked by the manufacturer with working load limits that differ from the tables, shall be considered to have a working load limits equal to the value for which they are marked. (d) Welded steel chain which is not marked or labeled to enable identification of its grade or working load limit shall be considered to have a working load limit equal to that for grade 30 proof coil chain. The LCS&C Department has consistently recommended that alloy steel chain used as tie-down devices to secure electrical equipment and supplies on utility vehicles have working load limits (WLL) established and visibly marked as noted on On-Site Regulatory Compliance Visit summaries, and general discussions at on-site safety meetings. There have been however, several states that have had electric utilities cited for not using alloy (welded) steel chain of grade 70 (transport) as listed in Table At the end of this article there will be several recommendations to help our member systems to meet this particular regulation, and the following regulation Table To [Working Load Limits (WLL), chain] Size mm () Grade 30 proof coil Grade 43 high test WLL in kg (pounds) Grade 70 transport Grade 80 alloy that is to be discussed next. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has two standards that would be applicable to lifting devices, (1) SUBPART N-MATERIALS HANDLING AND STORAGE, (Slings) under General Industry, and (2) SUBPART H-MATERIALS HANDLING, STORAGE, USE, AND DISPOSAL, (Rigging equipment for material handling) under Construction; (General Industry) (a) SCOPE.

10 Tie-Downs vs. Lifting Devices Continued from page 9 N-184-1, and H-1 have size of chain and working load limits listed, however the grade of alloy steel chain is not referenced. Please refer to footnote 1 at bottom of Table H-1 which refers to other grades of proof tested steel chain are not recommended for overhead lifting and therefore are not covered by this code. Both OSHA regulations for general industry and construction reference manufacturers recommendations on working load limits in referencing alloy steel chains. Please review OSHA's Guidance on Safe Sling Use Table 1 listed on page 9; Using OSHA's Guidance on Safe Sling Use Table 1, cross reference to Tables N-184-1, and H-1 it is very evident that only grade 80 alloy steel chain will meet the working load limits established within the two OSHA regulations. Therefore, it is the recommendation of the LCS&C Department that all alloy steel chain, and associated attachments used for a lifting device be a minimum grade 80. It is also recommended that all replacement chain and attachments be a minimum grade 80, and alloy steel chain used as tie-down devices also be a minimum grade 80 construction. This will minimize confusion, and limit the potential of an employee using the wrong grade of alloy steel chain regardless whether it is used as a tie-down or lifting device. The LCS&C Department would also like to introduce to our membership a new product on the market that that will assist cooperative employees in the safe procedure/methods when using alloy steel chains for tie-down or lifting devices. Shown below is a twist lock grab hook for alloy steel chain currently available in grade 80, and soon to be available in grade 100. This device was invented in Kansas, and if additional information is requested on the device, please ; sales@vision4safety.net for pricing, and availability.
