Chapter 2 Safety STABILITY Use crane on solid, level surface with stabilizers properly extended, and keep vehicle level. Reduce loads when operating on uneven ground. Keep personnel clear of moving stabilizers. When you rotate the crane, the load may change from being supported by the stabilizers to the vehicle suspension.
IMT 2003i Technical Specifications & Parts Manual # 99904385 Daily Safety Inspection Use the Crane Log, IMT Manual No. 99900686, the inspection checklist in the reference section of this manual, or the following list when inspecting your unit at start-up and during operation: 1 Vehicle - Check oil level, battery, lights, brakes, and tires for inflation, pressure, cuts, and loose or missing wheel lugs.
Chapter 2 Safety Electrical Hazards DANGER ELECTROCUTION HAZARD Vehicle is not insulated. Do NOT raise boom into power lines. Look up and use light to search for power lines in the dark. Keep boom and vehicle a minimum of 20 ft. (6.1 m) away from power lines. ...
Page 14
IMT 2003i Technical Specifications & Parts Manual # 99904385 DANGER Electrocution Hazard Never approach this vehicle or the load if it is near power lines. Death or serious injury will result from touching or being near this vehicle if it becomes charged.
Page 15
Chapter 2 Safety Contact the utility company before beginning work near powerlines. Always assume overhead lines to be energized. Avoid transporting a crane over uneven terrain. When using rope to steady a load or restrain spinning of the load, be aware that rope will also conduct electricity, especially if wet or damp.
IMT 2003i Technical Specifications & Parts Manual # 99904385 Crane Capacity The IMT crane is designed to lift specific loads. These loads are defined on the capacity placard mounted near the operator’s station and on the crane. Exceeding the limits presented on the capacity placard will create severe safety hazards and will shorten the life of the crane.

Chapter 2 Safety Additional danger decals are applied inside the truck body door. These decals include the following. Electrocution Hazard Crane and remote control are not insulated. Death or serious injury will result from approaching or contacting a power line. WARNING Falling Load Hazard Falling loads may injure or kill.
IMT 2003i Technical Specifications & Parts Manual # 99904385 Work Site Planning NO OVERHEAD OBSTRUCTIONS. NO POWERLINES PARKING BRAKE "ON." TRANSMISSION LOAD DOES IN NEUTRAL. NOT EXCEED CRANE CAPACITY. STABILIZERS ARE FULLY OUT AND DOWN ON A FIRM AND LEVEL SURFACE.
Chapter 2 Safety Stabilizer Operation Stabilizers help stabilize the crane and carrier vehicle during a lift, but they can be hazardous due to their close proximity to the operator and other personnel. They are the only component of the crane which normally contact the ground. WARNING Stabilizers can cause serious injury! Avoid stabilizer injuries including:...
IMT 2003i Technical Specifications & Parts Manual # 99904385 Ground Support Position the carrier vehicle on a firm, level surface for adequate stabilizer support. If stabilizers appear to bury themselves in a less than firm surface, then DO NOT perform a lift until a suitable location is found.

Removing crane pins can cause crane sections to suddenly come apart. Pins are frequently used as structural components on IMT cranes. Critical structural pins which require inspection and repair include pins which secure the lower boom assembly to the mast,...
Electric Crane Wear Pads IMT crane booms extend and retract on synthetic wear pads. The pads drop in place at the top or bottom of the inside of the booms, or snap in place into the sides of the booms. See figure for wear pad locations.
IMT 2003i Technical Specifications & Parts Manual # 99904385 2 Start the crane. Slowly cycle the boom in and out with no load to purge air from system. 3 After the air has been purged from the system, check the reservoir oil level. Top off oil level if needed.
If the daily wire rope inspection shows a problem with the wire rope, the rope must be repaired or replaced. Use only original wire rope from IMT. Failure to do so may cause problems with the anti-two-block system and the downhaul weights.
IMT 2003i Technical Specifications & Parts Manual # 99904385 When flat spots on the outer wires appear and those outside wires are less than 2/3 the thickness of the unworn outer wire. d When there is a decrease of diameter indicating a core failure.

IMT 2003i Technical Specifications & Parts Manual # 99904385 Turntable Bearing Thread Tightening Sequence Refer to the turntable bearing thread tightening diagram below for proper tightening/torqueing sequence of the turntable bearing to the crane base and crane mast. The total quantity of cap screws varies dependent on crane model.
Chapter 8 General Reference Turntable Bearing Inspection Turntable bearings may experience wear. One of the following conditions may indicate turntable bearing wear: Metal particles present in the bearing lubricant. Increased drive power required to rotate the crane. Noise emitting from the bearing during rotation. Rough rotation.
IMT 2003i Technical Specifications & Parts Manual # 99904385 Turntable Bearing Tilt Test 1 Place crane in vertical position. 2 Set a dial indicator at 0 on the pinion cover plate at back side of mast. 3 Lower crane to the horizontal position.
