Assembly Procedure
– GF-16
General description:
The GF-16 is a mobile crane-system for mounting cameras in a stationary ground position
or for movement on track.
It can be operated manually from the ground and can be panned in all directions either
with a remote-bracket or a 1 to 2 person platform. In accordance to the safety guidelines
the crane is only allowed to be used on solid, level and stable ground. While using it
stationary the levelling legs have to be used.
The crane operation from the ground is managed by at least one experienced, trained and
authorised personnel from the hand grips on the counterweight bucket.
Operation of the crane is only allowed within the limits and guidelines mentioned in the
instruction manual. The allowed payloads of each version are clearly shown on the
counterweight-bucket (workplace of the crane operator).
Attention: Before and during assembly observe the Safety Guidelines.
For all versions:
1.
Secure the base dolly so that it cannot move or roll. Lock all wheel brakes. Move the
steering rod towards the centre of the dolly or remove it so that the set-up personnel
do not trip over it.
