Question 3535 Deck General

The correct answer is B) safety latch. When using a crane to transfer personnel in a basket, the load hook must be equipped with a safety latch. This is a requirement specified in the regulations governing the use of cranes for personnel transfer, as the safety latch helps prevent the load from accidentally becoming detached from the hook. The other answer choices are incorrect because: A) A safety belt for each rider is not required on the load hook itself. C) A moused shackle is not necessary for the load hook in this scenario. D) A quick-release device is not the correct equipment for the load hook in this case.
