Job Details

  • Job: 1,300 solar panels lifted to roof for Save Energy
  • Location: Howard Park Winery, Margaret River
  • Crane: 20t Franna, pick and carry
  • Reach: Third section manual boom extension
  • Rigging: 4m, 2t soft slings chocked around 16 panels (approx. 500kg) at a time
  • Documentation: Take 5, lift assessment, Howard Park safety induction and rigging check completed on site

Once a load cleared the roofline the driver couldn't see where it was landing, so clear radio comms between the crane driver and dogmen kept every placement precise. Every panel went up safely over the two days, and the Save Energy crew were happy with how it went.
