SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
DRIVING THE VEHICLE
The following procedure is recommended for driving the vehicle:
CAUTION
Be sure the backrest bar is lowered behind you before operating the crane.
1.
Apply parking brake.
2.
Ensure that the hydrostatic transmission control lever is in neutral.
3.
Start engine and allow a warming period.
4.
Check to see that boom is retracted.
5.
Check to see that boom is over the front.
6.
Check to see that boom is lowered.
7.
Check to see that hoist line is snug.
8.
Check to see that outriggers are retracted.
9.
Release parking brake.
10. Move throttle lever for desired engine speed---slow for maneuvering, to
fast for longer travel.
11. Move hydrostatic transmission lever to control direction and speed.
12. Slow down when making sharp turns on slopes.
OPERATING THE CRANE
WARNING
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas that is invisible and
odorless. Breating engine exhasut fumes can cause death or serious illness. Do
not run the crane in enclosed areas withough adequate ventilation.
The following procedure is recommended for placing the crane in operation:
1.
Apply parking brake.
2.
Start engine and allow warming period.
3.
The outriggers must be extended firmly to ground at all times before
operation is conducted and remain extended until work operation is
completed and boom is restored to road travel position, except for
“on rubber” operation.
4.
During operations, the controls should always be metered when beginning or
ending movement to prevent sudden starting or stopping, which imposes
undue shock loads on the equipment, especially when handling heavy loads.
The control should be slightly actuated to begin movement and then slowly
increased to the desired operating speed. The results obtained from metering
the control levers can be improved by reducing the engine speed with the
throttle control. High engine speed is not required to operate the crane
controls.
Avoid holding a control lever in the open position after the function has
reached the end of its travel. This will impose unnecessary stress on the
components and heat up the hydraulic system.
