qualuied person: a person who, by possession of a recognized degree in an applicable field, or certificate of professional standing, or who, by extensive knowledge, training, and experience, has successfully demonstrated the ability to solve or resolve problems relating to the subject matter and work.
?wvmg: a rope system in which the rope travels around drums and sheaves.
rnpe: refers to wire rope unless otherwise specified.
service, heavy: service that involves operation within the rated load limit that exceeds normal service.
service, ,wrrnal: distributed service that involves operation with randomly distributed loads within the rated load limit, or uniform loads less than 65% of rated load for not more than 25% of the time.
service, severr: service that involves normal or heavy service with abnormal operating conditions.
shall: if a provision is of a mandatory nature it is indicated by the use of the word shall.
should: if a provision is of an advisory nature, it is indicated by the use of the word should and is a recommendation to be considered, the advisability of which depends on the facts in each situation.

stabilizers: extendable or fixed metal arms attached to the mounting base, that rest on supports at the outer ends.
standing rope (guy): a supporting rope that maintains a constant distance between the points of attachment to the two components connected by the rope.
structural competence: the ability of the machine and itscomponents to withstand the stresses imposed byapplied loads.
tackle: an assembly of ropes and sheaves arranged forlifting and pulling.
tipping condition, track-type fracfor: the load on the hookat the given load overhang distance that will cause thetrack roller of the track opposite the boom side to lift1/4 in.(6.4 mm) from the rail.
tipping conditiou, olaeel-fype tractor: the load on the hook,in pounds (kilograms), at the given load overhang dis-tance that will cause the wheel on the side opposite theboom to leave the ground h6 in. (1.6 mm).
transit: the moving or transporting of a side boom tractorfrom one location to another.
travel: the function of the machine moving from onelocation to another, on a job site.
travel mechanism: the machinery involved in providingtravel.
zoheelbase: distance between centers of front and rearaxles. For a multiple-axle assembly, the axle center forwheelbase measurement is taken as the midpoint of the assembly.
