SPECIAL SIGNS
For uncovered operations or for special conditions
that occur from time to time, may require additions
or modifications of standard signals. In such cases these
special signals must be agreed upon in advance between the
operator and the signalman and should not be in conflict with the
standard signals.

If the crane operator considers that the signals given to him

they are not accurate and do not correspond to the code of
standard signals, you must stop the operation of the crane and
request the corresponding area manager to allocate as
a person with full knowledge of the subject.
