Risk Assessment of Stage Hand Pulling Gourds: Important Steps to Ensure Stage Safety

　　1、 Potential Risks of Stage Hand Pulling Gourds

　　(1) Overloaded load

　　If the load borne by the stage chain hoist exceeds its rated load, it may cause chain breakage, hook deformation, or damage to the hoist body. This not only damages the equipment, but may also cause harm to people around it.

　　(2) Improper operation

　　Incorrect operating methods may lead to various risks. For example, sudden release during lifting, rapid pulling of the chain, and operating in a non compliant direction can all lead to accidents. In addition, if the operators have not received professional training and are not familiar with the performance and operation methods of the equipment, it is also easy to make operational errors.

　　(3) Equipment malfunction

　　Stage chain hoists may experience various malfunctions during long-term use, such as chain wear, loose hooks, and brake failure. If these faults are not detected and repaired in a timely manner, they may cause safety accidents during use.

　　(4) Environmental factors

　　The stage environment is usually complex and may have some unfavorable factors such as humidity, high temperature, dust, etc. These environmental factors may affect the performance and service life of stage chain hoists, increasing the risk of equipment failure.

　　2、 Method for risk estimation of stage hand pulled haws

　　(1) Load assessment

　　Before using a stage hoist, it is necessary to accurately evaluate the load to be lifted. Ensure that the load does not exceed the rated load of the hoist, and select the appropriate hoist model and specifications based on the weight and shape of the load.

　　(2) Operation specification inspection

　　Develop strict operating standards and provide training for operators. Ensure that operators are familiar with the performance and operating methods of the equipment, and strictly follow the specifications for operation. During the operation, attention should be paid to observing the operation of the equipment. If any abnormalities are found, the operation should be stopped immediately and checked.

　　(3) Equipment inspection and maintenance

　　Regularly inspect and maintain the stage chain hoist, promptly detect and repair equipment malfunctions and hidden dangers. The inspection includes the wear of the chain, the firmness of the hook, and the performance of the braking device. At the same time, the equipment should be cleaned and lubricated to maintain its good condition.

　　(4) Environmental assessment

　　Assess the stage environment and understand the impact of environmental factors on equipment. Take corresponding measures, such as moisture-proof, dust-proof, cooling, etc., to ensure that the equipment operates in a good environment.

　　3、 Risk response measures

　　(1) Develop emergency plans

　　Develop corresponding emergency plans for potential risks. The emergency plan should include accident reporting procedures, emergency response measures, personnel evacuation plans, etc. Regularly conduct emergency drills to improve the emergency response capabilities of staff.

　　(2) Safety training

　　Strengthen safety training for staff, enhance their safety awareness and risk prevention capabilities. The training content includes the correct use of equipment, safety operating procedures, emergency response knowledge, etc.

　　(3) Equipment updates and upgrades

　　With the continuous advancement of technology, the performance of stage chain hoists is also constantly improving. Timely updating and upgrading of equipment, selecting safer and more reliable devices, can effectively reduce risks.
