Articulated cranes under 16,000 lbs. capacity can just be operated by operators who are accredited. Operators must be knowledgeable regarding the features and operational characteristics of the machine. Before use, a pre-operational equipment check needs to be done. There is a legal prerequisite to carry out a pre-operational check and an inspection of the work-site ground and overhead conditions.

The manufacturer's instructions provide information regarding maintenance and inspection, loading and unloading of the crane. The law requires daily and annual checks. Drivers should maintain an up-to-date logbook in most places. They might be required to validate equipment warranties.

Adding remote control devices to the cranes is usually recommended. Remote control enhances safety by allowing the operator an easier option for handling the crane.
