Open Swing gear brake
Risk of tilting due to swinging (slewing) the superstructure! When the swing gear brake
is open, the superstructure can rotate involuntarily (influenced by wind / tilting position
of the crane vehicle). The crane vehicle can overturn when this happens. For this
reason only open / lock open the Swing Brake (friction) and Swing Lock (gear) when
the boom is fastened to the dolly.
NOTE:
In this condition the Swing Brake (friction) and Swing Lock (gear) are locked open and thus
out of function.
Removing the Dolly
To remove the dolly transport system-reverse the instructional items procedure 1 thru 21.
Danger of overturning while raising the main boom! Only lift the main boom off the
dolly when the Swing Brake and Swing Lock are functioning again and are applied.
Dolly Not Contained in the Delivery Scope of Crane Manufacturer.
If the dolly is not contained in our scope of supply, assembly, operation and
maintenance of this component remain the sole responsibility of the crane operator.
The crane operator is responsible for careful assembly, operation and maintenance in
accordance with the state and federal or national regulations. The manufacturer’s
instructions must be followed. The dolly must be fitted to the crane in such a way that
does not create any risks. For example, the axles of the dolly must be evenly loaded
to obtain an optimum braking effect. During driving the operating conditions of the
dolly which are dangerous for driving must be monitored.
