Hydraulic system
Note: Always read through the relevant safety instructions when connecting and using the crane’s hy-
draulics. All hydraulic hoses should be considered to be pressurised.
For disruption-free operation, oil must be changed and filters replaced at the specified intervals. When
replacing hydraulic components, this should be carried out in such a way that no dirt enters the system.
Use a lint-free cloth or rag when cleaning.
Note: It is prohibited to release oil onto the ground or into watercourses. Never mix oils of different
types or makes in the system.
The crane’s hydraulic valves are supplied with both main pressure
limiters and choke valves to prevent the crane from being overloa-
ded. No modifications of any type may be carried out.
