8. A "rough terrain" crane set up on outriggers that is based on 85% tipping
should have the tires:: Off the supporting surface
9. Load charts are based on stationary loads, which are also known as:: Static loads
10. The capacity in a mobile crane's load chart are based on either structural
limits or: Stability
11. The values listed in the manufacture's load chart show:: Rated capacities

19. You are lifting a load directly under the hook. As you put tension on it, the
load lifts away from crane. What caused the increased in load radius as should
have been placed?: Boom deflection
20. A crane that is set up properly should have the tires off the supporting
surface and should be:: Sufficient to support the crane and the load
21. When a boom extension considered to be inits stowed position, it is:: Pinned to
the boom base section
22. Crawler cranes produce the least amount of ground pressure is over the:: Side
23. What is the best source of information for determining boom tip height?: -
Working range diagram
24. What is the purpose of a work area diagram (chart)?: To identify operational quadrants
25. Ona telescopic boom truck with outriggers properly positioned, the working
area chart will indicate "over front" area is:: Determined by the crane manufacturer
26. When the load radius falls between capacities listed in the load chart use the
gross capacity for the: Longer radius
27. When the boom angle falls between the capacities listed in the load chart
use the gross capacity for the: Lower boom angle
28. When load charts are between the values listed in the load chart, the value
that must be used is the:: Lower at a longer radius
29. A load moment indicator (LMI) is a computer installed on cranes designed
to: provide the operator with information regarding the boom length, boom
angle, boom tip height, working radius, rated load and a total calculated weight
being lifted by the crane. The LMI also warns an operator when an overloading
situation is about to occur.: True
