Lifting Known Weight
The load chart is the governing factor when lifting known
weights. It is recommended that you feel your way into any lift as
a precaution against tip-over. Whenever possible, lift and swing
payloads between the front idler area.
Pick and Carry
The machine has the ability to pick and carry payloads without
added labor. We recommend when traveling with a suspended
payload, you evaluate the prevailing conditions and determine
the safety precautions required in each case. The following
factors must be considered before attempting to pick and carry a
load.
Align the boom with the forward direction of machine travel.
Maintain this boom position when turning the machine. Turn only
when necessary, at the slowest speed, and at a wide turning
radius.
1.
Use the shortest lifting radius distance possible.
2.
Keep the load as close to the ground as conditions will
permit.
3.
Provide tag lines to prevent load from pendulating.
Pendulating can cause a change in radius. A change in
radius could exceed the load chart rating or cause a
tip-over condition.
4.
Govern travel speed to suit conditions.
5.
Avoid sudden starts and stops.
