(1)
					 The employer shall ensure that the following requirements used for personnel
					 lifting are met:
(a) The hoist used for
					 personnel lifting shall meet the applicable requirements for design,
					 construction, installation, testing, inspection, maintenance, modification,
					 repair, and operations as prescribed by the manufacturer.
(b) Where manufacturers' specifications are
					 not available, the limitations assigned to the equipment shall be based on the
					 determinations of a registered professional engineer.
(c) The hoist shall be positioned so that it
					 is level and the distance between the drum and the foot block at the base of
					 the tower will allow proper spooling of wire rope. The foot block shall be
					 anchored to prevent displacement and be supported to maintain proper
					 alignment.
(d) The hoist shall be
					 designed to lift materials and personnel with the same drum or drums. Any hoist
					 that has been modified or repaired must be load tested to its rated
					 capacity.
(e) Rated load
					 capacities, recommended operating speeds, and special hazard warnings or
					 instructions shall be conspicuously posted on all hoists.
(f) Belts, gears, shafts, pulleys, sprockets,
					 spindles, drums, fly wheels, chains, or other rotating parts, where exposed,
					 shall be properly guarded.
(g)
					 Personnel load capacity for the current configuration of the gin pole shall be
					 on site and available to the hoist operator.
(h) The hoist shall have an hour meter and a
					 line speed indicator if the unit line speed has the ability to exceed 200 feet
					 per minute. The hoist shall be designed for and must use powered
					 lowering.
(i) The alignment of
					 hoist components shall be maintained within manufacturer's specified limits
					 that prevent premature deterioration of gear teeth, bearings, splines,
					 bushings, and any other parts of the hoist mechanism.
(j) All exhaust pipes shall be guarded where
					 exposed. An accessible fire extinguisher of 5BC rating or higher shall be
					 available at the operator's station.
(k) The hoist shall be serviced and
					 maintained per the manufacturer's or a professional engineer's
					 recommendations.
(l) The operating
					 manual developed by the manufacturer for the specific make and model hoist
					 being used shall be maintained at the site at all times.
(m) A hoist log book shall be used to record
					 all hoist inspections, tests, maintenance, and repair. The log shall be updated
					 daily as the hoist is being used and shall be signed by the operator and/or
					 crew chief. Service mechanics shall sign the log after conducting maintenance
					 and repair. The log shall be maintained at the site.

					 referenced in the ANSI/TIA-1019 2004 Structural Standards for Steel Gin Poles
					 Used for Installation of Antenna Towers and Antenna Supporting Structures or as
					 prescribed by a professional engineer.
(b) The following safe working load limits
					 shall be applied for gin pole lifts:
(i) Wire
					 rope, sheaves, rotating rooster heads, blocks, etc., used in the gin pole
					 lifting process shall meet the manufacturer's safe working load limits. In
					 addition, and for clarification, each component shall have a nominal breaking
					 strength of no less than 5 times the static load applied. Adequate
					 consideration for inefficiencies such as end fitting losses, D/d ratios,
					 frictional losses, etc., shall be considered. "D" is the diameter of the sheave
					 and "d" is the diameter of the wire rope passing through the sheave.
(ii) Wire rope slings, chains, shackles,
					 turnbuckles, links, hooks, etc. used to attach the gin pole to the tower and/or
					 to attach loads to lifting or tagging lines shall not exceed the manufacturer's
					 safe working load limits. In addition, each individual component, as well as an
					 attachment assembly, shall have a nominal breaking strength of not less than 5
					 times the static load applied. End fitting losses and actual positioning of
					 connecting parts shall be taken into consideration.
(iii) Lugs or other devices for lifting or
					 attaching the gin pole in position shall be, at a minimum, designed for the
					 combination of all loads to be applied to the gin pole.
(iv) The load factors and factors of safety
					 referenced in this standard are for lifting of loads only. If personnel are to
					 be lifted by a gin pole and its associated equipment, then the complete unit
					 capacity shall be reduced by 1/2.
