Important information 1.3 Intended use Improper use includes: – Transporting loads on the carrier – Pushing, pulling or lifting loads with the level adjustment system, the beams or the outrigger cylinders – Pushing, pulling or lifting loads off the ground using the slewing gear, the derricking gear or the telescoping mechanism –...
Important information 1.4 Organizational measures Organizational measures The operating instructions and the lifting capacity table should be kept in the truck crane for immediate access at all times, and must not be removed from the truck crane. You must have read and understood the operation and safety instructions in these operating instructions, and comply with them when working.
Page 14
Important information 1.4 Organizational measures Ensure that all safety and warning signs on the truck crane remain legible. Note the operational organization on the site. Report your arrival to site management. Ask for the employee authorized to instruct you. Familiarize yourself with the location and operation of the fire extinguishers on every site.
Important information 1.5 Personnel qualifications Personnel qualifications These operating instructions are not a training manual for prospective crane operators. All descriptions are written explicitly for crane operators who have been trained to operate truck cranes. Employees in training may only operate the truck crane under strict super- vision.
Important information 1.6 Safety instructions for truck crane work Safety instructions for truck crane work Carefully select a safe site for the truck crane to stand from where you can work safely. Check over the truck crane before beginning crane work. Check the condi- tion of the truck crane carefully using the checklists in the operating instruc- tions.
Page 17
Important information 1.6 Safety instructions for truck crane work Before turning the superstructure, support the truck crane with the outrig- ger span required for the currently rigged counterweight. Ensure that the truck crane is horizontally aligned before carrying out crane work.
Important information 1.7 Specifications in US standard units of measurement Specifications in US standard units of measurement In these operating instructions, the lattice extension lengths are given in metric units and US standard units of measurement. The values for the US standard units are rounded to the nearest whole number.
