29 CFR 1926.1434(a):Modifications or additions which affect the capacity or safe operation of the equipment are prohibited except where the requirements of paragraphs (a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(3), (a)(4), or (a)(5) of this section are met. On or about April 25, 2023 and at times previous, employees modified the brake system to allow manual lowering of an 18,000 lbs suspended load using handles and the procedures were not approved by a registered professional engineer or the crane manufacturer. This condition caused the load to fall in an uncontrolled manner.
