A signal performed by pointing up with an index finger and moving the hand in small circles?

• A. Hoist
• B. Fall Zone
• C. Snatch Block
• D. Reeving

Answer: (A)

Hoist is signaled by pointing upward with the index finger and making small circular motions with the hand. This gesture communicates the operator to lift or raise the load, with the circular motion indicating a continuous or steady hoist. In rigging signaling, other concepts like the Fall Zone refer to safety boundaries, Snatch Block is a pulley device, and Reeving describes rope arrangement, so they don’t match the signaling being described.
