5.1 OPERATION
The LMI is operational once it has been adjusted properly. The crane operator must for that rea-
son be familiar with all of the operating elements of the LMI and must make the correct entries
before the crane begins work. The proper function of the system shall be checked by lifting a
load of known weight and comparing the load to the information displayed on the LMI.
Rated loads include the weight of the hook block, slings, and auxiliary load handling devices.
This combined weight must be subtracted from the values contained in the load capacity chart in
order to determine the net load to be raised.
If any of the displays reflect a deviation between displayed and actual values an au-
thorized PAT service representative shall be called for repair of the system or re-
verification of the crane's LMI calibration.

Any structural modifications or changes to the crane shall require re-verification of the
crane's LMI calibration.
