LUBRICATION
HYDRAULIC OIL RESERVOIR LEVEL
The hydraulic oil reservoir has a sight gauge located on the
side of the reservoir. The hydraulic reservoir is full when the
oil level is level with the
FULL
bar on the adjacent decal with
the crane parked on a level surface in the transport condition
and while the oil is cold.
If the oil level is below the
LOW
bar on the decal add the
recommended type of hydraulic oil until the oil level is back at
the
FULL
marker. If the oil level is above the top of the sight
gauge, oil should be removed until the oil level is even with
the
FULL
marker.

RUST INHIBITOR
Protecting Cranes From Corrosion
National Cranes are manufactured to high quality standards,
including the type of paint finish demanded by today's
industry. In partnership with our paint supplier, we are also
doing our part to help prevent premature corrosion of cranes.
National Crane will be treated with a rust inhibitor called
Carwell
©
T32-CP-90. While a rust inhibitor cannot guarantee
that a machine will never rust, this product will help protect
against corrosion on National Cranes that are treated with
this product.
Carwell

T32-CP-90 is a treatment, not a coating. It contains
no silicones, solvents, CFCs or anything that would be
classified as hazardous under OSHA Regulation 29CFR19-
10.1200. The product is a liquid blend of petroleum
derivatives, rust inhibitors, water-repelling and water-
displacing agents. Special equipment is used to spray a light
film onto the entire undercarriage and various other areas of
each new crane prior to shipment. When applied the product
has a red tint to allow applicators to view coverage during
application. This red tint will turn clear on its own within
approximately 24 hours after application.
Once applied, Carwell

T32-CP-90 can appear to leave a
slightly “oily” residue on painted surfaces and until the red
tinting fades could initially be mistaken for a hydraulic oil
leak. While the product is not harmful to painted surfaces,
glass, plastic or rubber, it must be removed using standard
steam-cleaning techniques.
Carwell

works in various ways: (1) it eliminates the moisture
containing salt, dirt and other pollutants by lifting and
removing them from the metal surface; (2) the film creates a
barrier to repel further moisture from coming in contact with
the metal; and (3) it penetrates crevices.
In addition to the factory-applied Carwell

coating, National
Crane owners must provide proper maintenance and care to
help ensure long-term protection of their crane against
corrosion. This procedure provides information and
guidelines to help maintain the paint finish on National
Cranes.
The most common causes of corrosion include the following:
•
Road salts, chemicals, dirt, and moisture trapped in the
hard-to-reach areas;
•
Chipping or wear of paint, cased by minor incidents or
moving components;
•
Damage caused by personal abuse, such as using the
decks to transport rigging gear, tools, or cribbing; and
•
Exposure to harsh environmental hazards such as
alkaline, acids, or other chemicals that can attack the
crane's paint finish.
While the surfaces of the crane that are easily seen have the
biggest impact on the appearance of the crane, particular
attention should be given to the undercarriage of the crane to
minimize the harmful effects of corrosion.
Exercise special care and increase the frequency of cleaning
if the crane is operated:
•
on roads where large quantities of salt or calcium are
applied to treat icy and snowy road surfaces;
•
in areas that use dust control chemicals;
•
anywhere there are increased levels of wetness -
especially near salt water;
•
during prolonged periods of exposure to damp
conditions (e.g., moisture held in mud), where certain
crane parts may become corroded even though other
parts remain dry; or
•
in high humidity, or when temperatures are just above
the freezing point.
