High pressure oil can be injected through the skin causing severe injury, or death. The hydraulic system of the 6006H power version is electrically operated and requires a minimum of 12V for satisfac- tory performance. The hydraulic pump is bi-rotational with a pressure relief setting of 2200 psi. Standard pump speed is 1000 RPM (Ref.

Make sure pressure relief valve is correctly set. CAUTION The Auto Crane 6006H series cranes are manufactured with a standard overload protection system to prevent structural damage to the crane. When the crane load rating is exceeded, main boom down, extend out, and hoist up will not function. These operations cannot be used again until the load on the crane is reduced.
Avoid abrasive action and contact with sharp corner. • Frequency of use. Auto Crane units, up to 2,400 pound ratings use 3/16 inch diameter galvanized pre-formed 7 x 19 aircraft cable. This cable has a working strength, when new, of 4,200 pounds.
