What tool can personnel use to easily rotate or hold a hoisted load?

Using a tag line is an effective method for personnel to easily rotate or hold a hoisted load. A tag line is a rope or cable that is attached to a load while it is being lifted, allowing workers on the ground to guide and maneuver the load safely. This is particularly useful in ensuring that the load can be oriented to the correct position without requiring direct physical access to it as it is lifted.

In situations where a load needs precise positioning or when working in confined spaces, the tag line allows for fine control without putting personnel at risk beneath the load. It is a crucial safety tool to prevent awkward or dangerous movements that could arise if the load swings unexpectedly.

While a chain hoist is designed for lifting loads and a come-along can be used for pulling, neither tool provides the same level of control over the horizontal movement or rotational positioning of a suspended load as a tag line does. Similarly, a cable grip is primarily used for securely holding cables or wires but does not offer the functionality required for manipulating a hoisted load.
