5. OPERATION
5.1
OPERATION. (Refer to Section 6.2 (a) regarding inspection before each and every use).
a)
Ensure handwheel is in the raise (fully clockwise position).
b)
Place handle into pump socket and pump, the jib will raise. continue to pump until the jib reaches the height at which the load can be secured.
c)
connect the crane hook to the load using a suitable certified sling or support beam. Ensure you are aware of the load weight,
and check that it is within the capacity of the crane (at the jib extension you are using) and the sling or support beam. When removing
engines ensure you know the weight to be lifted. use only the lifting points recommended by the vehicle manufacturer.
d)
Lift only from directly above the load. WARNING! DO NOT lIFT THE lOAD AT AN ANGlE!
e)
to lower load, turn release handwheel VERY SLOWLY anti-clockwise avoiding any sudden movement.
WARNING! Do not allow the load to drop suddenly.
f)
the crane is not a transportation device but may be used to reposition the load being worked on. to do so, lower load and jib
with care, to the lowest possible point before attempting to move. Do not try to move crane in a sideways direction. the crane is
not designed to support the load indefinitely. When you have repositioned the load, lower the load onto a secure and
appropriate working base, being fully aware of your own and other persons locations in relation to the lowering load.
g)
When load has been secured, remove lifting sling, support beam etc. and place crane in a safe location with lifting beam fully lowered.
6. MAINTENANCE / EXAMINATION / INSPECTION
NOTE: The crane MUST be kept clean and dry and must be maintained in accordance with these instructions.
6.1.
Lubrication.
a)
oil all working parts monthly.
b)
the ram is filled with oil and should only require occasional topping up. for the occasional top up DO NOT use brake fluid, as this will
damage the hydraulic seals. Proceed as follows:
a)
use only good quality hydraulic jack oil available from your supplier.
DO NOT OVERFILL as this will cause failure, with ram in lowered position remove rubber bung located on the ram and
b)
top up to just below the filling hole. replace rubber bung.
c)
After filling with hydraulic oil, pump the crane up to full height and pour off any excess oil.
6.2.
Inspection and Examination of Crane Before Use.
a)
Before each use of the crane you must perform an inspection for leaks, damage, loose or missing parts.
b)
the workshop crane must be examined immediately if it has been subject to an abnormal load or shock. It is recommended
that such an examination is made by an authorised service agent.
c)
the owner and/or operator must be aware that repair of this equipment will require specialised knowledge and facilities.
It is recommended that an annual examination of the workshop crane is made by an authorised service agent.
d)
unauthorised parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
Note!
Please see the Definition of 'inspection' and 'examination' below.
Inspection:
Looking at the crane for defects and checking the operation of the controls, limiting and indicating devices without loading the crane.
this is much more than a check but does not normally require any part of the crane to be dismantled other than removal or opening
of covers or housings.
Examination:
Verification that the crane can safely continue in service including a functional test of all safety devices i.e. limiting, indicating
equipment, brakes, clutches, safety valves etc to verify that they operate within the required tolerances. An examination is more
thorough than an inspection.
6.3
Storage
a)
Always store the crane fully closed so that the jib is in lowest position and the ram is closed.
b)
to save space the legs may be folded into the upright position and secured in place using the Lock Pins.
