Observe the operational organisation at the site. Report your arrival to site
management. Ask for the personnel authorised to instruct you.
Find out where the fire extinguishers are and how to operate them at
every site.
Note the fire alarm and fire fighting facilities.
Should the operating behaviour of the truck crane change in such a manner
that safety is impaired or if you are in doubt about the operational safety of
the truck crane, stop the truck crane immediately and inform the responsi-
ble departments or persons.
Do not make any changes to the programmable control systems
(e.g. the RCL).
Do not modify or retrofit additional units to the truck crane without the
consent of the manufacturer if such changes would affect the safety.
This also applies to:
– Installation of safety devices
– Adjustment of safety devices and valves
All welding work (especially on load carrying members) may only be per-
formed by qualified professional personnel with the prior written permis-
sion of
Manitowoc Crane Group Germany GmbH
.
To avoid damage, especially to electronic parts, there are certain measures
you must take before doing any welding work. You should therefore always
consult
Manitowoc Crane Care
before any welding work.
Make sure that the prescribed intervals and the intervals specified in the
operation and maintenance manual for periodic inspections, tests and
maintenance work are adhered to.
Replace the hydraulic hose lines, or have them replaced, at the prescribed
intervals, even if no safety defects are noticeable.
Be sure to follow the instructions in the maintenance manual relating to
corrosion protection of the hydraulic cylinders.
Spare parts must fulfil the technical requirements defined by the manufac-
turer. Genuine spare parts always meet these requirements.
