GENERAL SAFETY RULES Whenever you see this symbol it means: Attention! Be careful! Your safety or that of the crane is at stake. Never attempt to lift loads greater than those permitted and indicated in the load charts attached to the machine. Keep the load low while transporting it, with the telescopic boom retracted as far as possible.
Page 13
The maximum loads are defined by the capacity of the crane, taking into account the weight and centre of gravity of the accessory. Never exceed this limit if the capacity of the accessory is less than that of the crane. Considering that in most cases the loads to be lifted cannot be connected directly to the machine hook, for your safety we recommend the use of harnessing systems such as steel ropes, chains, straps made of synthetic or natural fibres conforming to the regulatory standards in force.
