Operating Instructions
READ AND UNDERSTAND OPERATOR INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS CRANE

prior to lifting load.
NOTE: NEVER adjust Manual Boom while load is suspended.
7. Where the slewing function is not Hydraulic, i.e.-Manual Crank, place the Crank Handle in the Slew Housing at the base
of the Crane and crank manually clockwise or counter clockwise as desired.
