Steps
Note that 1926.1412(d)(1)(vii), the each-shift inspection paragraph, requires wire rope to be inspected 'in accordance with § 1926.1413(a)' — a distinct standard number.
Pull the full text of 1926.1413 from osha.gov to get the specific removal criteria (broken wires, diameter reduction, corrosion, kinking, etc.).
Match the removal criteria against the specific wire rope construction and diameter in use, since some criteria in 1926.1413 are expressed as a function of rope lay length or number of strands.
Verify whether the rope's crane manufacturer specifies stricter removal criteria than 1926.1413 — under 1926.1412(j), the more comprehensive of the two governs.
Document the inspection outcome as part of the required each-shift record trail feeding into the monthly/annual inspection chain.
Known gotchas
1926.1413 is a standalone standard number, not a subsection of 1926.1412 — searching only 1926.1412 without following the cross-reference will miss the actual wire-rope removal criteria.
Manufacturer wire-rope removal criteria that exceed OSHA's 1926.1413 minimums must be followed per 1926.1412(j); relying on the OSHA text alone can understate what's actually required for a given rope.
