what if I have a boom stuck in the air and the manual override doesn't work?

If the boom on your Stellar Labs 7621 is stuck in the air and the manual override is not functioning, follow these steps:

1. Check the Parking Brake – Ensure that the parking brake is engaged.
2. Verify PTO Engagement – Confirm that the Power Take-Off (PTO) is engaged.
3. Check Radio Receiver Power – Ensure there is 12V power going to the radio receiver. If not, trace back to the power source and check for a blown fuse or a loose ground connection.
4. Inspect Transmitter Batteries – Make sure the transmitter batteries are fully charged.
5. Evaluate Hydraulic Pump Performance – Verify that the hydraulic pump is operating at its rated flow (GPMs). Use a flow meter to determine if the pump is weakening. If suspected, contact Stellar Customer Service.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, further inspection of the hydraulic circuit may be necessary.

  • Page 4: Introduction

    Introduction Cranes are designed to provide safe and dependable service for a variety of operations. Stellar ® With proper use and maintenance, these cranes will operate at peak performance for many years. To promote this longevity, carefully study the information contained in this manual before putting the equipment into service.
  • Page 5: Chapter 1 - Operation

    Chapter 1 - Operation Safety should be the n umber one thought on every operator’s mind. Three factors should exist for safe operation: a qualified operator, well-maintained equipment, and the proper use of this equipment. This chapter contains information regarding the safety and operation of Stellar® manufactured EC Series Telescopic Cranes and should be read and understood completely by everyone working with or near the crane before putting the unit into operation.
  • Page 6: Job Site Setup

    Replace/repair as necessary prior to operation. For a more detailed checklist of scheduled inspection points, refer to the Stellar® Crane Inspection Log. This document is an essential guide for the daily, monthly, quarterly and annual inspection tasks that will help maintain the quality of your Stellar® product.
  • Page 7: Step 1: Disengage Drive Axle And Set The Parking Brake

    Step 1: Disengage drive axle and set the parking brake. The drive axle must be disengaged and the parking brake must be set before operating any of the equipment. Step 2: Engage the hydraulic power source. 1. Make certain that the transmission is in neutral/park and that the PTO switch is in the ‘off’ position.
  • Page 8: Step 4: Operate The Crane

    Step 4: Operate the crane. Operators should have a firm understanding of ANSI B30.5 - Section 5-3.2 Operating Practices and AEM Safety Manual (Form C-70-2) prior to operating of the crane. Prevent booms from contacting hard or sharp objects which could damage WARNING the boom and lessen structural integrity of the boom.

    Safe Mode Various sensors are mounted on the crane to monitor the crane's lifting capacity. If any encounter a fault, the crane will put itself into Safe Mode. Safe Mode will allow the operator to work with the crane at a reduced speed until the current lift is complete and the crane is properly stowed. The crane should not be used again until the malfunctioning safety device is repaired.
