Federal law (49 CFR part 571) requires that the Final Stage Manufacturer of a
vehicle certify that the vehicle complies with all applicable federal regulations.
Any modifications performed on the vehicle prior to the final state are also
considered intermediate stage manufacturing and must be certified as to
compliance. The installer of this crane and body is considered one of the
manufacturers of the vehicle. As such a manufacturer, the installer is responsible
for compliance with all applicable federal and state regulations and is required to
certify that the vehicle is compliant.
It is the further responsibility of the installer to comply with the OSHA Truck
Crane Stability Requirements as specified by 29 CFR part 1910.180 (C) (1). In
applications, where the rotation of the load is hazardous, a tag or restraint line
should be used, (ref. OSHA 1910.180(h)(3)(xvi)). To reduce the potential for the
load to rotate or rope twist, operate at minimal boom angles and extension.
This crane is designed for vertical lifts only. Do not attempt to lift or drag a load
from the side! The boom can fail far below its rated capacity.
Do not weld, modify, or use unauthorized components on any Auto Crane unit as
failure of the crane may occur. This will void any warranty or liability.
Failure to correctly plumb and wire crane can cause inadvertent operation and
damage to crane and/or personnel!
Auto Crane Company remote controlled cranes are not designed or intended
for use for any applications involving the lifting or moving of personnel when
not using authorized Auto Crane Company personnel attachments. Any such
unauthorized use is considered to be improper and the seller shall not be
responsible for any claims arising from such use. There is no implied warranty or
responsibility for such uses.
