Deck General USCG Question #262 (Set 8)

How should you signal the crane operator to move slowly?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option B — Use one hand to give any motion signal, and place the other hand motionless in front of the hand giving the motion signal.

Standard hand-signal protocols for crane operations dictate placing one hand motionless in front of the active motion-signaling hand to command slow, precise movement of the load.
