Hi,
You would have to expand your "excavator lifting" before anyone could give an answer.
Cheers

The majority of the main contractor groups do require a lift plan for lifting using an excavator.

Very good download in the Construction Plant-Hire Association , Crane Special Interest Group.
This will help you greatly.

The reason I ask is I questioned whether we should have one but was told that this was only for cranes. My belief is we should have one to plan the lift properly and leave it to a slinger
