5.5
EMERGENCY STOP MEASURES
The crane's control system must be equipped with a STOPswitch located in the crane's control
position. It can be used to cut off crane's oil supply (e.g. by an electrically controlled valve) or, al-
ternatively, the electric current to the pilot-operated control valve. Also the stopping of the drive unit
is considered as a STOPPING - operation, if it can be done from the control position..
5.5.1 Tipping hazard
5.5.2 Emergency stop in case of rupture of hoses
•
Immediately push the steering lever controlling the lifting boom
completely open to the descending position.
•
Keep the lever continuously open until the load is on the ground.
If you interrupt the descent, the sudden stop of the load will only
further the fall.
•
In case of tipping danger do not lower the load with the outer
boom, as there is a risk that the load reaches the cabin.
•
Do not jump out of the cabin, as you are at risk of remaining un-
der the falling load, vehicle or crane.
No add-ons should be attached to the cabin frame by drilling or
•
welding.
•
In case of rupture of hoses press the STOP switch or stop the
engine / pump!
Remove the spilled oil from the ground and take it to a waste oil
•
collection point.
