Ngokubanzi, ukusetyenziswa okubanzi ngakumbi kweekhreyini zaselwandle kukusetyenziswa kwemisebenzi yothutho lwaselwandle, ngakumbi ekusebenzeni kwempahla yenqanawa kunye nokusebenza kwamanzi emanzini, kunye nokubuyiselwa kunye neminye imisebenzi ebaluleke ngakumbi, enyanisweni, iikhreyini zaselwandle kwi-shipboard. imisebenzi kunemisebenzi yomhlaba iimfuno ezingqongqo ngakumbi, nto leyo ebangelwa ulwandle hayi kuphela ukuhambisa iimpahla, kodwa ngokutsho ezinye intsebenzo ekhethekileyo ukuze inqanawa yokulawula.
I-cranes yaselwandle kwintlangano yokuphakamisa iyingxenye ebaluleke kakhulu, njengoko ii-cranes zaselwandle ziyimishini yokwakhiwa kwemizi-mveliso, kwaye indawo yokusebenza yaselwandle iyingozi, efuna ukuba senze umsebenzi omhle wokugcinwa kwe-crane, ngokukodwa ukugcinwa kombutho wokuphakamisa, ukugcinwa kukuqala ukuqonda indlela umbutho ophakamisayo uchithwa kwaye ufakwe.
