indication shall be within the tolerance of SAE J376.
Rated loads include the weight of the hook block, slings, and auxiliary load handling devices.
Their combined weights shall be subtracted from the listed load capacities as stated on the
load capacity chart to obtain the net load to be lifted.
Any structural modifications or changes to the crane shall require
verification of the crane's calibration.

configuration. Once the system is properly set, the operation of the EI 65 is fully automated.

responsible for verifying the operating information is correct. At anytime the operator deems
necessary, the pre-operational checks in Section 5 should be completed.

7. SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE

Daily maintenance of the system consists of inspecting:
